I hated them having 4 guys too, and while I don't disagree with you on Otunga being shit it was actually Phillips' addition I hated most. Probably because he pretty much only got added to promote upcoming stuff, which normally you'd think would be Mauro's job like Cole on Raw. Maybe I'm too protective of Mauro, but when Phillips was added it definitely felt like a slight to him for me. Ideally it would just be Mauro and JBL, were JBL not such a bully and insufferable prick. Mauro and Bryan's CWC announcing last year was easily the best I'd heard of anyone from WWE in years. So I guess they woulda been the true ideal pairing, but not feasible with Bryan as the GM.
