Do announcers and commentators have certain favourite names to pronounce? What I mean is that every announcer or commentator have always said certain names with such emphasis and passion.

For example, Vince McMahon would always say "The Heartbreak Kid" Shawn Michaels and The Undertaker so amazingly. Same as Justin Roberts pronouncing Jeff Hardy and John Cena.

Discuss.

I've always used to notice the way Justin Roberts said Jeff Hardy, he really liked to extend the F's so it was like JEFFFFFFFFFFF Hardy!

Finkel's Rowdy Roddy Piper and Bret The Hitman Hart were great as well


Ricardo Rodriguez's Alberto Del Rio can't be touched though

Another one was Tony Chimel's The Undertaker. Always so intense.

I also like Michael Buffer when he announced the main events for WCW. I mean he would drag on the let's get ready to rumble but when he announced the participants in each match it felt important.

Anyone else notice how Finkel said Bret Hitman Hart not The Hitman?
