As we reported yesterday, Jonathan Coachman continued to “call out” PWInsider.com’s Dave Scherer, during his appearance on WWE.com’s talk show ByteThis! (he had originally made comments about Scherer during a WWE.com “Coachcast”). Following is Dave Scherer’s statement, posted earlier today on PWInsider.com:
I don’t know what Coach wants to happen with mentioning me on on WWE.com programming. I don’t know what he said about me two weeks ago, but when he mentioned me on his Coachcast last week (which I assume is what he is referring to), I did post a tongue-in-cheek mention of it here on the site. I don’t know what else he wants from me so I will just leave it at this. I have heard he’s a nice guy. I think he’s an entertaining heel character. But, he is just not a good play-by-play man. In addition to not knowing most of the moves he is supposed to call, he has a really bad habit of saying things at the wrong time. He also bears the brunt of saying all of the things that Vince McMahon feeds him into his headset, but that is his choice. I do have to say that I find it really surprising that a WWE contracted talent is looking to start a web flame war, on the official WWE site no less, with a reporter. It certainly shows a change in philosophy by the company and is pretty interesting.
