I always liked this short Bret Hart promo a couple of months before the Montreal screw job. Bret had a good run right before he left the WWF. His promos I thought were better as a heel.





This version of that promo is HILARIOUS

You can just put up any Jake the Snake promos. The guy was a master with the mic and one of the greatest ring psychologists. He should be studied by any aspiring wrestler.

Roddy was also great because you never knew what was gonna come out of his mouth.

Then you've got Sid with his "I have half the brain that you have!" speech.

You had to be good in the ring and behind the mic.

The best behind the mic would probably be:

The Rock
Flair
Road Warrior Hawk
Hogan
Rhodes
Randy Savage


Austin and arn Anderson weren't bad as well.


he was a great bad guy ...... mic skills were alright but in the ring dude was nice.

Triple H too. One of the best heels ever. He could get people to hate on him so easily.


great bad guy .... average on the mic. great in the ring .....

These guys couldn't cut it in the ECW. That was a hardcore outfit. Or was it XCW? They would play on LA-57, some free cable network, and had barb wire bat matches in rings set up in home depot parking lots.

XPW. And that was garbage. More recently it was CZW that did hardcore stuff, but they had some good talent and some entertaining segments. XPW was terrible.

That was like the wrestling version of SNL's Tarzan, Tonto, and Frankenstein skit.

But this is the best promo ever:

Agreed on both. HHH vs Rock ladder match Summerslam 98 was really good too. Some of my favorites:

Ultimate Warrior vs Macho Man - Career Ending Match Wrestlemania 7

The part that gave me goosebumps was when Warrior for the first time, walked to the ring.

Macho Man vs Ric Flair - WWF Title Wrestlemania 8

Sting and HBK were really good with the mic. That's why I give the edge for HBK over Hart because of the charisma and promo/mic skills.

I was a big fan of all 3 competing companies, WWF ,WCW and ECW.

Both were great matches, but I have a hard time enjoying any match more than the Bret Hart/Austin match WM13 when I watch them again sometimes. I tend to watch these classic matches from time to time, and this one is almost as good now as it when I saw it live 18 years ago.

It had so many stories and so much great moves as well. The whole role reversal by mach's end. Austin refusing to quit but passing out. The shot of Austin's blood pouring down his face. That match cemented Austin as a babyface and Bret at a villian. I know Austin had many other great matches and moments with Vince McMahon, but to me if Bret doesn't have that match with Austin, Austin isn't what he became after.

Mick Foley, ladies & gentlemen

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mick_Foley#Activism

Quote:
Having become a devoted fan of Tori Amos' music in 1993, (particularly the song "Winter" from the Little Earthquakes album),[29] and following a meeting with Amos at the 2008 San Diego Comic Con, Foley became involved with the Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network (RAINN), a group Amos co-founded in 1994. Since then, he has worked as a volunteer on their online hotline and as a member of their National Leadership Council. During a 15-month period ending in April 2011, Foley logged more than 550 hours talking to victims online.
