WWE News: Backlash 2024 is currently taking place from Lyon, France, and fans have noticed a laughable comment from Michael Cole on commentary.
Tama Tonga and Solo Sikoa faced Randy Orton and Kevin Owens in the opening match of the night, and Cole mentioned Bullet Club and how Tama Tonga had faced the likes of EVIL back in New Japan.
Fightful’s Jeremy Lambert noted it during the broadcast and tweeted: “Michael Cole just said “great matches with the likes of EVIL” and you know he’s just reading cagematch and didn’t watch that sh*t.”
Michael Cole just said "great matches with the likes of EVIL" and you know he's just reading cagematch and didn't watch that shit.

Fans would then echo his sentiments, absolutely RIPPING into Cole for claiming that any match featuring EVIL taking on Tama Tonga could be anything resembling ‘great.’
