[@theguyfromwalgreens]

10. Good ole Jake. I’ll never forget about that slap. That sinister smile & the way he asked Macho Man to bring her back so he could do it again. That’s just a brilliant way at being awesome playing a role to be hated. As a kid I was ready to jump through the screen. You get older & look back…Jake definitely belongs on the list. I’m not sure if anyone ever thinks much about him. As you mentioned, he didn’t have to get loud or go over the top. Just the tone in which he presented himself in did enough. 9. The “Genetic Jackhammer.” Loved that name. His rivalry with his own family is definitely gold. 8. Punk’s “Pipebomb” will forever be gold. Let alone when he went & bought real names into the rivalry with Paul. 7. Austin? I think he definitely deserves a top five if not top three. Not many people could make the simple word of “What” live for 20yrs. You know you’re good when people in the crowd now chanting it weren’t even conceived. 6. Cena…I think Austin should definitely be higher than John. He’s good, but certainly not the level of Austin. There were times where he could be downright annoying. Austin never left me in a state of “alright you can wrap it up.” 5. Hot Rod! You’re dead on the money when you said that you’d pay to see him get his ass kicked. I liked heel Piper more, but he’s great overall. 4. Paul’s definitely an awesome man cutting promos. I’ve often wondered if Brock would be as over as he is if it weren’t for Paul. He had all the physical talent, but in my opinion he’s still kind of boring whenever he opens his mouth. Thankfully he has Paul. When he slammed Bradshaw, I laughed my tail off. 3. Jerhico…second to only The Rock in my opinion. I loved watching those two go at it. The fued didn’t last as long as I would’ve liked, but what we gained was beautiful. 2. Ric…I love Ric. I like Jerhico a little more, but he’s most certainly a diamond on the mic. He’s still having hard time keeping those alligators down! My fav “Slick Rick” moment will never be anything he said on the mic(which was always good), but it came from a simple moment. I saw him at a house show in either ‘92-‘93 timeframe. The main event was him & Bret. My cousins & I snuck down ringside for their match & in the midst of the boos…you could hear three early teen’s “Woooooooooooooing!!!” while he was chopping Bret in the corner. I looks down at the three of us, gave us a huge smile, a Wooooo, & a big thumbs up. 1. The Rock. I still go back & forth between him & Shawn as my all time overall favorite. He has more charisma than I could ever hope to have. His feuds with Austin are legendary. I’m glad I was alive to witness the two of them rather than just having old clips. Watching them with friends in the dorms with friends my first three years in the military was always a blast. Hell the only thing I went to the dayroom to actually watch was wrestling. The insults & catch phrases are second to none.

Bad Ass Billy Gun is still burried somewhere in the cemetry, somewhere after that promo in 1999. Hopefully he'll be able dig himself up eventually.. no rush though. It's only been a 23 year burial thus far..he still has the time

[@Bigjizay]

My fav Rock promo was the song he did about Sacramento 🤣🤣

[@ashishranjan426]

Stone cold should've been above the list. And Rtruth is awesome on mic

[@seditiousmonkey1]

Rt is underappreciated, that is fair. My issue with this is that, imo, Jericho is better than the nature boy. Natch didn't change character, really, but y2j?...imo, mount Rushmore of wrestling.

[@coreynance3874]

you know watching this video makes me still wish the rock and austin were still in the wwe today the way these two guys can own people on the mic🎤🎤🎤🎤 it's just incredible especially the way austin put people in their place and took them down a peg.

Physco sid 1 Ultimate warrior 2 No one else on they level🤷‍♂️

[@UndergroundSkat2000]

Sid's promo at WM8 is his absolute best. Intense. It almost seemed like he was going to actually kill Hulk Hogan. But then the bell rang......🤦 Ultimate Warrior's best work has been after his retirement. He was ruthless

"Sometimes it's better to be quiet and be thought a fool, then to speak up and erase all doubt"!! Should be the warning label on the internet!!

The most electrifying cadence and modulation in the history of sports entertainment - you the man uce!

[@leighmeeks3529]

Have to say Bray Wyatt is fantastic on the stick. He's a genius at the promo

[@kevatchiralzin3495]

Austin shoulda been in top 3, he invented “What” and it’s alive till this day.

Rowdy Roddy pipper was a comedian 🤣 😂 😆 😳 😅 😅😅🔥😭loved him

[@jazzprince4447]

I think Roddy Pipers character was just actually him 😂

[@mike76geo]

But the funny thing was, if you saw an interview with him outside of kayfabe WWF, he was a calm, rational guy. Very intelligent and honest. He just knew when to "turn it on". My absolute favorite.

[@williamsummerson1204]

Stone Cold and The Rock will always be my favorites.
