Aw man! Don and Mike were the only TNA announce team I liked - great chemistry together.
R.I.P. Don.

Don West, man I really loved him back in the day, people used to crap on him because of how excitable he was, but he paved the way for guys like Ronallo and Pat to really let their passion and emotion out through their commentary.
RIP Don

Mike Tenay and Don West were the greatest commentary team ever and you won't be able to tell me otherwise.
Don probably sold God a $20 brown bag special as soon as he got there.

RIP Don West. I always enjoyed his enthusiasm on commentary and he was always an inspiration to me when it comes to selling wrestling merchandise.

Don West was the damn man. Him and Tenay are up there with Heenan/Monsoon and JR/Heyman for me. All time commentator

Such sad news. Don West and Mike Tenay have to be my favourite duo on commentary and I watched a lot of TNA when I was younger on a channel we had in the UK called "The Wrestling Channel". I loved the enthusiasm he had and how genuinely excited he got whilst doing his job. A sad loss for the wrestling world.
His reaction to TNA signing Kurt Angle will forever be one of my favourite moments in Wrestling!

Did anybody here buy his ShopTNA Brown Bag specials back in the day? I bought 3 of them after watching his sales video on the site and I still have the Sting and Jeff Hardy shirts they gave me.
