| #2 Posted on 27.12.03 1442.35 | Instant Rating: 6.48 | I was wondering that myself.
Not only were they not in any of the ringside shots, but they also weren't in any of the "earlier today" footage around Baghdad. Was probably a lot easier to record commentary in the studio then take them along.
The only thing I missed was the very starting of the show, so unless they appeared on air then...

| #5 Posted on 28.12.03 1023.30 | I looked around the set the cameras filmed, and I didn't see a single announcer's table anywhere, let alone the two announcers themselves.
Ever notice during the Benoit-Guerrero match when Guerrero was thrown to the side that the barricade was a lot closer to the ring then it normally would've? I mean, on the spot where the table normally would be on SD?

Cole once mentioned on the show that Tazz was in camo gear; that's something I'd kill to see. Tazz's trademark orange and black suit, in camo. Ha!
