* MostAnnoyingSound: He has a very…''distinctive'' voice, especially when he's on the microphone [[ChewingTheScenery having a goddamn buffet with the scenery]], and there are a plethora of fans that enjoy him. But when he's talking about, say, [[spoiler: how his client Brock Lesnar broke Undertaker's streak,]] there is a primal urge within you to imagine wringing his neck.
