Heel Michael Cole Was INSUFFERABLE

In 2010 WWE somehow turned a COMMENTATOR into one of the most hated people on Monday Night Raw. Not a wrestler. Not a manager. Michael Cole. What started as weird obsession with The Miz on NXT slowly turned into one of the most painful heel runs WWE has ever produced. The anonymous Raw GM, the laptop, Cole vs Jerry Lawler somehow becoming a major WrestleMania feud... and somehow it just kept getting WORSE. This wasn’t normal heel heat either. This was pure "please get this guy off my TV" heat. And somehow WWE thought the solution was giving commentary one of the biggest storylines on the show. Today we’re revisiting Michael Cole’s infamous heel run, why fans hated it so much, and how WWE somehow made commentary itself unbearable.
