Kevin Kelly was helped a lot in New Japan by his co-commentators being a rotation of people worse at it than him and also Rocky sometimes when he wasn't out of breath from doing forever clotheslines. Once Charlton outgrew him he was cooked and he knew it.

My chief problem with Kevin Kelly is that he sounds just enough like Ian Riccabonni that my first thought is always "I wish this was Ian Riccabonni"

The thing about Kevin Kelly is that he is dweeb. Nerds at least have passion for something. Even if being really into boutique releases of new Laserdiscs isn't a sexy or possibly even real topic, I could probably have a decent conversation with them on their topic if they are genuinely into it for love of the game. Some nerds could be jocks if the focus of their passion was slightly different, and jocks have to be nerds towards their sport to succeed. Some nerds indeed do direct their focus to exercise and get jacked. While being a dweeb is a mindset, have you ever seen a jacked dweeb?

Kevin Kelly can step in for Tony Schiavone as the announcer everyone kinda roasts, except everyone can push the insults to 11 now. That is what TK is excited for in 2024. Edit: I'd say Beepie Jr (no relation) is more of a doofus than a dweeb

Bring back Marvez if you need an announcer to dunk on. Send Kevin Kelly to interview Timmy and the bottom of the well and leave him there

No one else elevates getting roasted the way Tony does, he has the ideal mix of self deprecation and cranky energy to play off of it Anyone else playing that role wouldn't bring the fun to it

There would be so many fun ways to create a semi-hostile, but not really legally actionable, work environment for ol KK. The sky is the limit if you use your imagination so please never limit yourself.
