World Wrestling Entertainment has reportedly contacted Mick Foley to the new announcer for Smackdown. There is no word yet if Foley has accepted the deal.


If he becomes announcer, I am so going to watch from now on.

Is this ring announcer or color commentator? If it's the second, I can imagine him now saying "Have a nice day" at the end of every show.

If Foley goes to Color commentator...

I'm praying they send Coach to ECW.

Mick Foley is a very good color commentator, so I'd definately like to see him as a regular. Especially if that means replacing Coachman.

Foley should go to ECW, instead. Not only has he wrestled in the original company before, but replacing Adamle is a necessity right now.

That would mean him and Tazz....two color commentators......then again, I suppose its better than one color and an idiot.

Tazz seems to be turning into a play-by-play over time, anyway.

I would prefer him with Tazz, but Adamle and Coach are both awful right now - so either being replaced by Foley is a good thing.

Foleys not that good at annoucning remember he did ONS 2005 he was actually really disappointing, I saw just bring back styles.

Foley isn't the best or anywhere near it, but Foley is a hundred times better than Adamle or Coach.

I'd maybe even put Foley on the same level as Lawler since Lawler just doesn't really have it anymore, I think. He lost his edge when he stopped being a heel.

Coach is getting a whole lot bettert, Coach has improved a lot on SD! and coach has been practicing his annoucing, hes been annoucing college basketball the past two years.

Improving does not necessarily equal "good" though.

He's still an awful commentator, at least with certain partners. I liked his work on Heat with D'lo, Raven, and Al Snow but with Styles, Lawler, Cole, or anyone else, he's just bad. Hell, I prefered his work with Chris Leary on Jakked over anything he's done since leaving the Heat commentating booth.

If they bring Foley in, they could always do some shuffling and get a better result. Foley on SmackDown, Coach on ECW, Adamle on Heat. With that: SmackDown's ringside commentating gets some personality (it's so damn bland right now), Coach could be the straight man to counter Tazz's personality while improving on a lesser show, and Adamle could learn to hone his new craft on one of the smallest shows in WWE with one of the smallest audiences (less risk).

Adamle is not going anywhere, Vince put him there for a reason that reason IDK but he did it for some reason and hes not moving him.

Apparently he put him there so he could try to justify paying $300k a year for him.

I agree with Kraul and the reshuffling.

Once Adamle gets some talent, then you move him to a bigger role, but Foley is a good move on Smackdown, hell... I would prefer Adamle to Coach! Both are crap, I know, but Coach is just shit.

Yeah, at least Adamle is entertaining when he's bad. Coach is just annoying.

This is pretty good news I think. I'll admit I wasn't annoyed by coach when Raw had a 3 man team, but on Smackdown there's no "flavor" in the announcing. Foley announcing for Smackdown would be a welcomed and great change.

I guess we can call this...

WWE.com
 
BALTIMORE - WWE.com has learned Mick Foley will debut on color commentary for SmackDown tonight at Backlash. At the pay-per-view, the Hardcore Legend will call the World Heavyweight Championship Match between title holder Undertaker and Edge, as well as the other SmackDown matches, alongside Michael Cole.

Foley first took the microphone at One Night Stand 2005 when he joined WWE.com's Joey Styles at the announcers' table. The three-time WWE Champion brings invaluable in-ring and out-of-the-squared circle experience to SmackDown's team.


CONFIRMED!!! :excited:

It's a fabulous new day, yes it is!
Good for Foley.

What will they do with Coach? Move him to ECW to replace Adamle or ECW gets Tazz, Adamle and Coach at the same time calling the matches?

Poor, poor Tazz in that scenario. He'd have to carry two people rather than just Adamle. :-/

I wish I had enough money to order the pay-per-view. This is going to be awesome.
