    In your mind, who cut the best promo? Lots of people to choose from: Heyman, Austin, Rhodes, Flair, ect.

    Who did it best and why do you believe they're better than anybody else?

    I can easily kill an hour watching old Flair promos on YouTube.

    Old-school Canuckistani choice: Gene Kiniski.

    I'd probably go with Flair as well, just because they seem to hold up really well. I'm a Jericho mark, so he's probably my favorite of guys that are semi-active. Punk is probably my favorite of guys on the roster right now.

    All-time favorite: Flair. The guy could talk.
    Attitude Era favorite: The Rock. When he was on, his promos were top-notch.
    PG Era favorites: Punk, Heyman and Jericho.
     
  5. When I was younger, the Rock was my favorite wrestler, mainly because he was great on the mic. He'd be my choice. But Flair, Punk and Austin are right there.

    I love the addition of Paul Orndorff, Baron.

    A lot of people don't realize how "wonderful" he was on the microphone.

    Ok, so what peyote were they smoking when they created that idea? I'm sure that was Hornswoggle as the little bull.

    So was I, although that little guy actually seemed like he could jump around a little better.

    I don't think Hornswoggle can move like that.

    Primo and Epico probably wouldn't be able to lift him like that, either.
