I was watching a few wrestling promo vids earlier, and then it hit me to come on here. What are some of the best promos you have seen? There are always going to be obvious ones like the Austin KOTR promo, the Four Horsemen introduction promo, or even some of the more recent promos involving Punk. However, there are many that go forgotten.

Honestly, I am a fan of Taz's ECW promos, as I felt they were golden and he was showing that he would be the next big guy in the company. A lot of his best mic work was in the ring with interaction, specifically with Shane Douglas and the Triple Threat, which is one of my favorite feuds.

My suggestion would be to include a video of the promos but since I am mot at my computer I can't but one of my favorites was the Rock making fun of Cole for checking out his strudel. I will come up with more later though.

I tried to find some vids of the ones I mentioned, but it was an unsuccessful adventure lol. I do encourage posting of promo vids though, as I am sure everyone else will enjoy them.

If we're looking at underrated gems, look no further than Eddie Kingston's promo for CHIKARA's first iPPV. You may as well call the promo TAKE MY MONEY CHIKARA, HAVE IT ALL.

I'd argue that promo did more for Foley's career than any death match.

All three of those promos are awesome guys. Billy showed me the Kingston promo a while back when it first happened, and I was blown away. Foley's ECW promos were gems as well.

Here's a personal favorite of mine from Jake "The Snake" Roberts from WM 6 on Dibiase. There is so much intensity in his promos, no matter the length.

Once again, I get glossed over on the wrestling mention. I'm about to make you believers.

Here's a gem of a promo by Jon Moxley aka Dean Ambrose. This...well, just watch this man work.
