From what I remember of that Heyman promo, he was supposed to get heat for Lesnar since he was the heel on his upcoming match with Goldberg. The problem was they were in Lesnar's hometown and everyone was cheering the moment they went out. Heyman was trying as hard as he could to get heat but everyone kept cheering, so he just gave thar awkward promo

You mentioned Paul Heyman's promo, but failed to address an important detail surrounding it. I still remember that Raw was in Minneapolis, Minnesota: Brock Lesnar's hometown. Brock was going into the feud with Goldberg as a heel BUT that crowd just wasn't having it. They kept chanting for Lesnar and booed Goldberg whenever Heyman mentioned him. He was trying to get heel heat for Brock, which was NEVER gonna happen there. This caused Heyman to stumble and stutter, and I felt that he was visibly shaken and probably even furious with the creative team. I don't think he wanted to do that promo. Seriously, what were they thinking trying to get someone booed in their own hometown? I can't really blame Heyman for that promo tbh.

Still not as bad as his more recent ones. How many times did he try that "Seth Rollins is a clown emoji" crap in the worst "hello, fellow kids!" way? And the cursing! I don't usually mind cursing, but that was some BS. The Rock became a star because he came from an era where the guys were given free reign with their promos and they could use their natural charisma and wit to win over the crowd. And in the modern era, promos are written word for word by the writers and the guys have to make do with what's given to them. You know how well Dwayne got over when he was given pre-written crap? The crowd said, and I quote, "Die Rocky Die". But I digress. Everyone else has the nanny-writers putting bad promos in their mouths, and even if they manage to get over anyway... well, just look at Zack Ryder. You're not allowed to get over unless management wants you to get over. And here comes Dwayne, given and abusing such freedom he can piss away the PG era rules and start cursing. I really hope he stays gone.

Okay, it needs to be said that Jake the Snake Roberts’s promo from Heroes of Wrestling has some strokes of genius in there. “Wanna play 21? I got 22.” = Roberts has a .22 caliber pistol. He is so ruthless that he’ll kill you to win by default. “You wanna play blackjack? I got two of those, too.” = A blackjack is a type of club. He’s gonna club you over the head. “You wanna play aces and eights? Well, I got some of those, too.” = Aces and Eights is also known as the Dead Man’s Hand. It is called this because Old West folk hero Wild Bill Hickock held this hand as he was murdered playing poker. The rest is drunken bullshit.
