Always make an early prediction for these and for this one I am picking Stone Cold. Will be interesting to see how far Punk goes.

Me personally, I'd love to see a manager like Heenan, Cornette or Heyman win this thing but if not a manager.... for me nobody cuts a promo like Shane Douglas, hope he makes a good long run in this

I know it's all personal preference and what not, but fucking hell fire some of these people who have gone into the tournament have absolutely stunk.

McCool, Rey, Kofi & Matt Hardy so far all making it into a Greatest Promo Person ever, really?

I was stunned by 3 of those. For some reason even though he is a terrible promo Matt Hardy didn't surprise me. People continue to think he was good at stuff. That's the main disadvantage with taking any names submitted but I actually like people sharing their opinions. Even if some of them (Rey is a good promo guy?) are ridiculous.

I'm not going through all my lists and I'll never flat out say who picked who but I will say Rey and Kofi were on the same list. Matt was by himself.

I don't think I did. He said 30 so I just thought of 30 decent superstars at the top of my head. So I might of put Kofi in there but certainly not matt.

I am one who actually thinks Matt is pretty good on the mic epsically when he was playing the V1 character, but he is still not the standard which should be in this thing.

The guy was so terrible at mic work he couldn't get over when he had so much sympathy working for him. V1 wasn't any better, Mattitude was getting overshadowed by Mysterio on the stick, not exactly the best example of him.

Superstar billy Graham not getting higher was a travesty, and this is why I hardly vote in these.

It bugs me when so-called hardcore wrestling fans don't know the history, it is like saying Lebron is better than Kobe and not even acknowledging MJ, Bill Walton or Wilt.

I lost the will to live when Jake Roberts got voted out to Piper.

Also Funk beating Road Dogg? No big deal, but ARE YOU SRS?
