I’m no Howard Finkel or Tony Chimel, but I alone could do a better job than Lauren Mayhew when it came to ring announcing. She seemed really out of rhythm when it came to pronouncing names, when you hear Tony or Lilian or even Justin introduce a match it seems to flow really well, however Lauren’s just seemed like she had to put strain on every word and half the time seemed like she was announcing for some sort of jumble sale than a wrestling match. Plus, Jillian’s voice is whiney when she sings because its a gimmick, what was Lauren’s excuse?

I’m glad they’ve parted ways, I think there’s more to it than wanting to focus on her career. WWE came down on her pretty early when she began the job on SD but was removed after the dark match to take notes due to not doing too well. I hear that they might be rehiring Sean Mooney (Who?) apparently he worked there before, but anything is an improvement from her. I’d like to see Courtney back on ECW, but to stick her in a announcing role is career suicide for a wrestler, same applies to Savannah and Rosa.

I don’t really care about this xD. She wasn’t a good announcer and she didn’t have Lilian’s personality. So whatever.

About Rosa. I think it would be insulting to put her in such a role. She trained for a few years to be a wrestler, not an announcer. But anyways, they probably put some dude in the role.

I found Lauren’s voice kind of annoying too actually… it was like she’d had a few too many Red Bull’s before she came out.
Good luck to her in the future :)

I really liked Lauren! =/ Maybe Savannah could take her spot. Or have Courtney Taylor come back!

Lauren was cringe-worthy on the mic. She never knew how she wanted to pronounce the names or which part to accentuate. Like “Your WIN-ner and STILL E-c-DOUBLE-u champi-ON, CHRISTIAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN!”

Rosa was a hundred times better at announcing, but I think she does have a knack for skits and valet, and always an emergency diva for multi-tag matches if someone’s out. Plus she just started a program with Zack Ryder and it’d be bad to just drop it, especially when they’ll see each other whenever he wrestles.

Savannah could slide in easily, but I’m guessing they want to eventually transition her to wrestling. Tony Chimmel probably does double duty until WWE finds a replacement.

I would prefer watching Rosa feud with Savannah.

I actually think Rosa would end up in one of the best positions within WWE. Ring announcers are more vital, have longer careers (not lauren obviously) and get more screen time. if a big release comes up pre or post mania, Rosa would more likely be spared as an announcer than she would as a valet or “wrestler” (I put quotations because what rosa does cant really be described as wrestling).

If the Fink comes back, it will be for RAW, not for ECW ;-)

an eight week contract doesn’t sound right. six maybe, but eight is weird. i wouldn’t actually be surprised if it had something to do with her topless movie coming out soon.

if they are going to replace her with another diva, i’d prefer savannah/angela taking over rather than rosa. yes, angela is a much better wrestler but rosa’s already established as a wrestler on wwe (however bad). or maybe courtney taylor could come back?

they should just give the job to howard finkel, really.

Her voice was annoying :/

With Katie Lea going to RAW, Rosa doesnt have much choice. It’s either announcing or valetting. I’d probably choose announcing (if i was in her shoes).

Good, she’s not a good voice and isn’t sexy to boot (although that doesn’t matter since she’s an announcer). I’d prefer Rosa be the announcer, her voice is better as I heard her annouce in FCW, plus she pratically useless in ECW now so I say … why not? =)

So much for replacing Lilian. I’d be disappointed if I were Rosa and was relegated to announcing. I know she’s not a good wrestler, but stuck doing announcing on ECW? Even the Bellas got a better deal than that.
