Re: WWE's 25 greatest mic moments in wrestling history
How did "I screwed Bret!" make it but "Bret Hart screwed Bret Hart" not make it?
And am I the only one who was disappointed at the lack of "IT WAS ME, AUSTIN!"
And they also don't have one of my all-time favorite promos here. The Ministry Taker promos that ends with "now you will know why you are afraid of the dark."

the It was me Austin wasn't really a promo per say, more a segment with some talking involved.Big Red Machine wrote:How did "I screwed Bret!" make it but "Bret Hart screwed Bret Hart" not make it?

I'm personally disappointed in the absence of Harley Race in the list

Re: WWE's 25 greatest mic moments in wrestling history
Yes! I noticed he was left off the list. Also a little disappointed that they didn't include any of Steve Austin's work from ECW in '95.cero2k wrote:I'm personally disappointed in the absence of Harley Race in the list
However, I'm not gonna complain too much about a list that put Cane Dewey at #3. I was happy to see that

Re: WWE's 25 greatest mic moments in wrestling history
Because WWE is PG now, so they probably don't want to call attention to the fact that John Cena once said "we're inmates, Brock, and you just dropped the soap."RedSon wrote:comes to show, not a single mention of cena and his thugnomics

Re: WWE's 25 greatest mic moments in wrestling history

Re: WWE's 25 greatest mic moments in wrestling history
He's had quite a few. His promos on The Rock from last year come to mind, as does his promo to Vince in 2011 when Vince was about to fire him.cero2k wrote:still, this also means that cena hasn't had a single memorable promo in his career be it PG or not. same with wwe's top guys like orton or triple hBig Red Machine wrote:Because WWE is PG now, so they probably don't want to call attention to the fact that John Cena once said "we're inmates, Brock, and you just dropped the soap."RedSon wrote:comes to show, not a single mention of cena and his thugnomics

Re: WWE's 25 greatest mic moments in wrestling history
they're ok, they're good, but not at the level of the ones in the list at all. and we're talking about the poster boy for the last 10 yrsBig Red Machine wrote:He's had quite a few.

Re: WWE's 25 greatest mic moments in wrestling history
It doesn't mean Cena hasn't had a single memorable promo ever. It means he hasn't had one of the 25 best of all time (of the material that WWE owns... and some of these are memorable for sucking (the Warrior promo, for example).cero2k wrote:they're ok, they're good, but not at the level of the ones in the list at all. and we're talking about the poster boy for the last 10 yrsBig Red Machine wrote:He's had quite a few.

And this is also a list that doesn't include "Bret Screwed Bret," so how accurate can it be?
