Michael Cole acknowledges past announcers who helped call Cena’s matches

During the broadcast of Saturday Night’s Main Event yesterday and before the final match of John Cena, Michael Cole gave a nod to his broadcast colleagues who are no longer working with WWE but also served a very important voice during John Cena’s career.

Cole mentioned John “Bradshaw” Layfield, who apart from having a fierce rivalry with Cena, was also calling his matches on Smackdown and pay-per-views, coming up with the term “big match John.”

The voice of WWE then mentioned Taz, who did commentary on Smackdown with Cole during Cena’s rise, as well as WWE Hall of Famers Jerry “The King” Lawler and the one and only Jim Ross.

Corey Graves, who still works the booth on Smackdown, also got a nod.

Both Taz and Jim Ross currently work for AEW.
