Pretty sure Mike Sanders had a catchphrase at the end.

 

[Hoss]

Lance Storm's "If I could be serious for a moment"

 

[Chris]

WWE does it too with The Bar, Heyman doing his shit and the New Age Outlaws even started their intro before they were faces I think, they just didn't finalize it until they were

 

[Chris]

I think the heels just had more mic time and every wants to have a catchphrase and no one cared enough to say wait you're a heel bc the crowd was at least engaged

 

[Hoss]

True. At least with Heyman I can say people usually boo when he says his.

 

[Chris]

They boo him before and after but say it along with him

 

[Hoss]

I guess you're right lol

The late 90s was the time when cool heels were the height of popular. nWo had their surveys where most towns said they were there to see the nWo.

 

[Chris]

IDK why it upsets me when the crowd says "My name is Paul Heyman" with him like bruh that's his name not y'alls

 

[Kross Rhodes]

Even today you have the smark crowds that are still into cool heels.

 

[Chris]

"I'd cheer for him if he turned heel" gotta be the most posted comment on every wrestling forum

 

[Kross Rhodes]

Same, Chris. They did that with Umaga's manager sometimes too.

 

[Chris]

Goldberg beating up the Insane Clown Posse bc they don't know where Sid is

 

[Kross Rhodes]

That's the trouble Austin created. You gotta give fans a babyface they want to cheer or turn them heel so they do. It worked for Rock like fireworks. It always amazed me they never tried it with Cena or Roman. Roman was a great babyface for reference, but it might have helped the reactions.

ICP in WCW is my jam no lie
