Can't see JR doing it to be honest. Probably one of the younger guys - Josh maybe. Would love it to be Stanford though.

Imagine if Punk replaced him for a show or 2 but still compete. how heelish would that be?

Personally hoping for Matt Striker. Little biased, though, as he's my favorite current commentator. What can I say? I like commentators that know their WWE/wrestling history.

Ugh anyone but Josh. The Josh/Cole duo sounds like the same whiny man making believe he's two separate people and whining back and forth to himself.
I also would like to see Matt Striker. I wouldn't mind Booker T (since he's Smackdown GM he's not usually occupied on Raw) or William Regal either.

Nothing against the King, but I felt that Striker should have replaced Lawler a few years ago. Matt Striker was awesome on commentary.

Matthews, Striker, or even Regal will do. I'm guessing they will just put Matthews in there.

Me and a friend actually talked about this earlier today and he thinks JR, but I'm leaning more towards Josh Matthews or Matt Striker. I'd love if they had Scott Stanford doing it.

Turn Michael Cole face and make Regal the heel commentator and unless Lawler wants the job if he can handle the job anymore they should keep the duo.

I think JR would respectfully refuse even if he were offered the place, just because under the circumstances, it seems a little weird. Sucks, as I love JR and want him to be part of Monday Nights again.
Seeing as Road Dogg/ Josh Matthews make a good team on that youtube show of theirs (only seen 3 episodes but they have good chemistry), I think they would make a good commentary pairing.
William Regal, however, is my go to guy for who should be next on the commentary. Although I'm not sure he and cole would co-exist.

I'm guessing it will be Matthews, though I'd be very in favor of Regal.

I feel like it HAS to be Jim Ross. You can't just throw someone in there. Jerry Lawler is a legend. Those are big shoes to fill. I think the casual fan would be really disappointed if someone like Josh Mathews stepped in. (no disrespect to Mathews, I think he is great)
I really, really, really hope it's not Matt Striker. I like the guy, but he is super annoying. I can only take his smarkyness in doses. "I'M MARKIN OUT BRO!" <--lmao.
If it were up to me, I would put Booker T AND Josh Mathews with Cole.

Regal or Miz.
I could see JR coming back as a result of this, at least for awhile. I still would prefer Regal or Miz.
I don't honestly have a problem with Josh, but there should be a heel, and a wrestler would make a much better heel color man unless you had someone like Heyman. Cole's heel act has worn thin, and they have scaled it back greatly recently (only about a year too late). Regal would be perfect since Miz is still active.
