What was the reason they hired William E. Martin to voice Shredder in season 8?

I find it odd since Townsend Coleman and Jim Cummings who voiced Shredder were both voicing characters in "Get Shredder". Niether of them voiced him for some reason. I'm guessing they wanted someone with a more menacing voice for Shredder in the darker episodes.

I still prefer James Avery, but I wonder if his voice would had fit in the red sky era. Some people say William E. Martin sounded creepier and more menacing. What is your opinion, guys?
