5 Times WWE Commentators were victorious in the ring 

#2 WWE SmackDown Commentator Michael Cole

Michael Cole

In 2010-2012, Michael Cole would portray himself as a heel commentator. Cole would constantly antagonize WWE's babyfaces at a time and would even pester at his fellow RAW commentator, Jerry Lawler.

Cole's antics would start to frustrate Lawler so much that they would end up facing each other at WrestleMania 27. Their rivalry got to a point where Cole cost Lawler a chance in winning the WWE Championship. Cole would then gain huge confidence by having Jack Swagger as his manager and appointing JBL as the special guest referee. Upon finding out that JBL would not be the referee for his match, he knew that he would be at a huge disadvantage.

At WrestleMania 27, Cole had to deal with JR in Lawler's corner and Stone Cold Steve Austin's role as special guest referee. Cole would then be submitted to the ankle lock by Lawler. As Lawler, Austin, and Ross were celebrating, RAW's Anonymous General Manager ruled out Austin's bias in the match, thus reversing the decision and awarding Cole the win against Lawler by disqualification.
