Micheal Cole chooses the biggest moment that he has ever called during his illustrious WWE career
Michael Cole, the revered voice of WWE, has had an illustrious career spanning nearly three decades, with numerous memorable matches and moments echoing in his voice. However, the choice proved difficult yet profound when quizzed about the most significant moment he’s ever called.
Rock-Cena Clash Tops Cole’s Memorable Matches List
“Box office-wise, probably Rock-Cena at WrestleMania. The first one,” Cole confessed on “The Pat McAfee Show.” His long-time WWE broadcast partner, Pat McAfee, posed the all-important question, sparking an exciting trip down memory lane.
WrestleMania 28, billed as “Once in a Lifetime,” showcased a non-title bout where The Rock pinned John Cena in a gripping face-off over 30 minutes. Cole reminisced, “One of the biggest stories we’d ever done. Just that moment in time when Rock and John were in their careers. That was probably the biggest that I had the pleasure of calling.” The pair would go toe-to-toe once more the following year, but that couldn’t dilute the essence of the original clash.
Roman Reigns’ Dominance and Other Memorable Moments
Given his tenure of over 25 years with WWE, Cole has witnessed plenty of moments that could have stolen the top spot. He remarked, “But there’s been so many over the years. Roman Reigns has just had some incredible moments.” Indeed, Roman Reigns’ thrilling journey has been a treasure trove of historic moments and incredible victories that have enthralled WWE fans across the globe.
Seth Rollins’ “Heist of the Century” as Cole’s Favorite
Despite the tight competition, one instance has stayed etched in Cole’s memory as the greatest. “Probably the greatest moment, though, was the night that Seth Rollins cashed in Money in the Bank at WrestleMania to beat Brock and Roman on the same night,” Cole declared, referring to the event widely known as “The Heist of the Century.”
Seth Rollins’ daring decision to cash in his Money in the Bank contract at WrestleMania remains one of the most shocking and celebrated moments in WWE history. It was a night that broke barriers and exceeded expectations, fittingly named by Cole as his favorite moment.
As Cole nears his 30th year in WWE, he continues to lend his voice to more such thrilling matches and electrifying moments, embedding them into the hearts of WWE fans. His greatest moments remind us of the high-stakes drama and unscripted surprises that make WWE an unparalleled spectacle.
