Best Promos - Ric Flair - Let me explain something to you 3 cartoon characters...

This channel contains the best wrestling promos of all time, as well as a few clips which might as well be wrestling promos. These clips are from the golden age of wrestling-- NWA and WWF. If it cant hang with the Iron Sheik, Jake the Snake Roberts, The Four Horsemen or The Road Warriors--- then it didnt deserve to be on here....

[@GordonGkko]

Completely puts Arn over, completely gets himself over, makes you want to be him, promotes the hell out of the next event, antagonizes his opponents to where you want to see them get their revenge on him, makes you laugh, keeps your undivided attention for 4 straight minutes, masterclass in the art of the promo complete.
