This past Monday on RAW a irate Brock Lesnar went on a rampage after Seth Rollins refused to give him his rematch for the WWE World Heavyweight Title that night. Lesnar took out the entire RAW broadcast team. Lesnar delivered an F5 to Michael Cole. Later that night Byron Saxton announced that Cole suffered a cervical spine injury from the attack.
Dave Meltzer of Wrestling Observer is reporting that WWE is trying to do everything they can to get WWE Hall of Famer announcer Jim Ross back. JR attended this past weekend’s NXT show and received a shout-out from Triple H. JR has said several times on his podcast that he doesn’t plan to announce wrestling shows on a weekly basis anymore, but that could change if WWE makes the right offer.
Nobody is expecting that Cole will be back next week. Cole could be kept off the show several weeks, which would leave the play-by-play spot open. Saxton could be used again next week on RAW, but it’s also possible that next week’s show could see the return of the greatest announcer in wrestling history, Jim Ross.
