#1 A Heel TV Character
When Jonathan Coachman returned to WWE at the beginning of the year, he returned as a babyface color commentator. However, whether it be a commentator, manager, General Manager, interviewer, assistant or all rolled into one with also being a part-time wrestler, the Coach has always shined as a heel.
I think Coach is one of the most underrated heels ever and had one of the most underrated turns ever (at Summerslam 2003). Coach immediately became a fantastic heel after his turn. He feuded with Jim Ross and Jerry Lawler, Stone Cold Steve Austin, DX, John Cena and more and was so entertaining.
As an obnoxious heel, Coach is a generally unlikable character, which is what ever heel wants and needs to be. And what is even more amazing is before this, Coach was just a very bland commentator and interviewer, and to go from that to outshining some of WWE's then best heel performers was truly fantastic to watch.
I can't see WWE doing anything more with Coach tan the pre-shows, they would be missing the boat if they didn't bring him back to TV as a heel character.
