[0.0] "I genuinely think that the wink at the camera was him saying "yeah this writing is fucking horrendous.""

[8.0] "Only three things that make me not give this a 10 is Seth Rollins role in this story before he revealed on RAW why he wanted to fight The Bloodline. It was so forced and the only reason behind it was just making the Tag match to make this story look bigger; the fact this didn't hit me as much as other promos like the "Ucey" one, the trial of Sami Zayn or the Punk/Rollins/McIntyre tirade; and how Cody Rhodes, all of a sudden, changes his mind (actually, for the better, but everything they did with him prior to this event made him the dumbest guy in the world). Anything else was just perfect. The Rock's heel work as The Final Boss as been superb. The way he reads the room and adapts to the situation with so much ease is indescribable. He made the entire segment mean something, while Seth and Roman were mere supporters and Cody entered to take the spotlight as the hero and bring out the hyprocrisy of Dwayne."

[5.0] "What a way to open your first ever show up with basically saying this company sucks and the NWA Title Battle Royal sucks too, That's defenitely gonna help wrestling fans love TNA. What an odd promo, It was like the writers voiced their opinion or something like that."

[8.0] "A great segment that's taken a few notches down due to incosistencies within the whole thing. I don't think they needed to explained what happened at WM 39 and just talk about WrestleMania 40 and take a few hints and Solo turning on Jimmy seemed hypocritical considering Solo Sikoa himself has been on a losing streak so him kicking Jimmy out for "losing" makes no sense. Tama Tonga's debut was a shocker and I'm excited to see what he does."

[8.0] "This was the moment Adam Pearce went from the lamest and most boring GM in wrestling history to someone that actually makes himself respected. He was just a "yes man", doing anything Roman Reigns, Ronda or any big time player wanted and not showing any real leadership or personality as a boss until this, until he was sick and tired of Ronda doing whatever she wanted. Best thing Adam Pearce ever did as GM. After this, well, he is not as lame as he was before, but still isn't in the same authority level of guys like Teddy Long, Nick Aldis or William Regal."

[8.0] "This was really good. The bloodline arc continues without Sami, Roman or The Rock and it still looks promising. I am very interested to see how this goes and changing Solo's character was a very good choice."

[9.0] "Solo Sikoa needed this so much. He finally got a personality and he's not an NPC enforcer anymore. Now he's calling the shots as the loss of the one thing that made The Bloodline the greatest force in wrestling today had to mean something. He brings a friend of the family, the son of Haku, the Bullet Club OG Tama Tonga as his new ally in this new crusade, first getting rid of the weakest link of The Bloodline, his own brother Jimmy. The many paths this could take, the fact they managed to bring back to life a story that was getting stale since last year in such force, with the now confirmed signing of the "Samoan Werewolf" Jacob Fatu being an indicator of being another member of Solo's regime and the rumors of a civil war with a reunion of The Usos, a face turn for Roman, even adding Sami Zayn to the mix in another epic feud. I'm really hyped for this. Paul Heyman's performance here was amazing, his acting was great and the way his role is now turned to be a kidnapped and constantly threatened wiseman is so interesting. I'd love that WWE put this same level of creativity with other stories, because this is a complete masterpiece."

[10.0] "The start of the big story of Mania 40, never think a Press Conference would interest me, but it's real feeling, the presentation, the stars, and to show their willing to give the fans what they want puts this a perfect ten. Having Rock turned heel when he was such a boring babyface creating the greatest babyface of this gen with Cody, it's so fascinating to turn a bad decision to a king maker. Feeling like it's real with the intensity, the extras with the GMs and HHH, the unhinge anger and Cody winning the main audience is just incredible. Seth, Cody, Rock, and Roman did their role, and this help turn Wrestlemania 40 to one of the best Manias of all time. Incredible pivot and incredible emotion, made an incredible experience."

[10.0] "I consider it easily one of the best/most important segments of 2024. Not only it saved us from Rock vs. Roman singles match and from having to wait another year for Cody to finish his story, it also gave us "The Final Boss" version of The Rock and a shocking moment of him slapping Rhodes. I'm glad WWE managed to address media's reaction and decided to pivot - that way it turned from potentially unwatchable feud between two cousins (with Rock being a babyface) to a rivalry with insane dynamics, like Rock ruling everything and abusing his power, Cody forming an alliance with a former opponent in Seth, Roman getting more paranoid because of Rock taking the spotlight from him, etc. This is a must-watch segment for any WWE viewer/fan."

[10.0] "I feel like Brock went off script here which was great, and the responses he got from Joe made the promo even better. I like the fact that this involved Roman too it was a great build up for Summerslam."

[10.0] "I remember when this segment first happened, I wasn't interested since I thought WWE was dead set on having The Rock vs Roman Reigns for the main event of WrestleMania. But, once I heard what went down, I decided to give it a watch. And, let me tell you, I'm so glad what I expected came out to be dead wrong. This segment is incredibly important to the Cody Rhodes/Roman Reigns (and The Rock) rivalry. The Rock pulling off a successful heel turn in the process, Cody Rhodes taking back giving up his spot for The Rock, the slap heard around the world, feeling like it's a legitimate argument and fight going on, the jabs at each other's family's, and Cody coming out saying "This, this right here is bullshit! " had me dying. Even if you took out the swearing (which I don't get why people think promos get praised for using curse words), this is a brilliant promo and immediately rejuvenated everyone's (including yours truly) interest in WrestleMania XL. So thank you Rock for not being selfish, as usual, and ended up making this feud bigger than it already was."

[] "It's impressive how CM Punk elevates those who are with him in promo battles, Drew Mcintyre's level in this promo is something inconceivable, by far the best promo of his career"

[10.0] "This was one of the most awaited segments ever. What happened in this segment determined whether WWE would abandon their 2 year story due to the Rock or continue it. The slap at the end lead to what was an incredible 2 months of Cody/Rollins v Rock and Roman."

[10.0] "The hype around this particular segment was astronomical. This was the deciding factor of wether WWE would fuck up a 2 year storyline or listen to all the backlash worldwide and reverse their decision. We all tuned in for that one decision, but did things take a massive fucking turn. Literally after so many years, I said a "HOLY FUCK" out loud when that slap happened. People may say that The Rock ain't a versatile actor, but goddamn did he raise the tension in the fucking room with his visible anger. A very strong start to one of the biggest storylines, and probably one of the best payoffs in professional wrestling. This was the promo where we got the first glimpse of the Final Boss, and started the whole Cody/Rock saga. Never did I think that I'd be so intrigued by a press conference but they did an awesome fucking job."

[7.0] "Honestly a good and entertaining little segment there, and even though I'm not a Tama Tonga fan, his debut was pure hype. This new Bloodline storyline started greatly and I can see it becoming one of the best things for WWE this year and maybe next year as well."

[] "When even the transcription of the promo gives you goosebumps i think it might mean it's awesome, right?"

[7.0] "The promo was relatively good and it can be said that this promo was the beginning of the new chapter of bloodline and they entered the new story. I give this promo 7 points."

[0.0] "Ted DiBase Jr mentioning his childhood is the only interesting part about it, overall it was boring then and makes fatuity today. Barely described his turn on Legacy and why he is scummy/mean to the WWE Universe. He should had spinned it around saying it was you who took my dad away from me, it was you who made him buy all those expensive lavishing suits, it was you that took my childhood and now im gonna take yours and your adulthood to go with it. He went with a generic approach and delivered like someone in the back telling him to. Zero out of Zero."

[4.0] "I love this promo.... I mean it's so bad I can't help but find it hilarious. I have no idea what they was thinking in the WWE with this, but its pure gold for all the wrong reasons."

[7.0] "A lot of this seemed to just be references to different wrestlers on the promotion, not really saying anything beyond acknowledging their existence. The best stuff here is when he directly calls out Seth Rollins and lays out plans for the future."

[10.0] "I absolutely love that Sami took this opportunity to use The Judgement Day's domination of Monday Night Raw as an allegory for a much larger, more sinister real-world political force. It's subtle enough that you can take it at face value, and it'll still be effective, but it's definitely there and makes the promo so much stronger when viewed through that lens. His delivery is excellent, pure passion, and Rhea has great chemistry with him."

[5.0] "As much as I love Randy and Rhea, neither of them put their best foot forward here. Randy's motivations for wanting to take down the Bloodline are muddy and unclear, with his promo more concerned with hitting catchphrases and popping the crowd rather than furthering any angle. It gets a little better with Rhea's involvement, but it's very much your typical "the Judgement Day run Raw" promo we've heard 1000 times already."

[7.0] "Austin got in some solid heel work, but this was all about The Rock coming back, hitting all the classic catchphrases, and getting a huge pop from the crowd. How much you'll enjoy this will depend entirely on how sick you are of those classic Rock catchphrases (in my case, a little)."

[5.0] "A rather forgettable and unnecessary promo in AEW's first ever show. Bret Hart showed up to introudce the World title which was a very cool moment altough he messed up with his lines. Hangman Page came out but didn't get any promo time despite being the winner of the battle royal. MJF, instead, came out and delivered one of his weakest promos to this date. Really lame and boring schtick from him. We also got introduced to Jimmy Havoc and Jungle Boy who, alongside Hangman, beat up MJF. Bret Hart, then, showed to the fans the (beautiful) World title in a pretty underwhelming moment.The segment definitely didn't have to be that long altough it kind of served its purpose of introducing talents that we only saw in the pre-show. Still not good enough, though. 5/10"

[7.0] "Not Cody's finest work on the mic. I didn't get much out of all the mother stuff; it felt forced to me when Cody did it because he's a face and can't say anything too mean. It was livened up by Heyman's involvement towards the end, who could be cutting a promo where he reads the phone book and makes it entertaining."

[7.0] "This short promo here is way better than the one Max cut at Double or Nothing the month before. It's simple but well delivered with a couple of really funny lines. The mom line was hilarious and the videogame/virginity line with the camera cutting perfectly on the sad look of the guy in the crowd was just top notch. Textbook stuff, very simple schtick but it works in presenting MJF as the arrongant prick he is with the crowd already hating him. 7/10"

[10.0] "Coming after that wonderful war between Dustin and Cody, this promo serves as somewhat of reconciliation between the two brothers. Cody has left the ring and Dustin is taking off his boots, sign that he wants to retire. However Cody gets back in the ring and stops him. He gets a microphone and says that he needs a partner to fight the Young Bucks for Fight for the Fallen. But he doesn't needs a partner or a friend, he needs his older brother. And the two embrace with the crowd chanting Dusty. What a moment! It always sends shivers down my spine and makes tear up. Cody's delivery of that final line is also iconic. Amazing stuff. 10/10"

[10.0] "Moxley debuting in AEW back in 2019 was the true needle mover that, for me, established AEW as a real alternative for WWE. It proved that AEW wasn't just t-shirt company and made many people realize AEW was the place to go. Moxley could've gone anywhere he wanted, he had the resumate to do it but he decided to bet on this up-and-coming promotion. Moxley, in this promo, is fired up immediately after throwing Kenny Omega off the chips at DoN and cuts a tremendous promo that pretty much excels in everything. It's short and straight to the point and delivered with passion. He says that he is alive and that for the first time, after a very long time, he is breathing fresh air. He says that he came to AEW to reclaim his soul and change this buisness. He also declares war to anybody who will stand in his way or in AEW's way. The "We ain't reading history books, we write them" line is iconic and the final "This is what you call a Paradigm Shift" is simply perfect. In retrospective, knowing what Mox has done for the company since then, this was indeed a paradigm shift that changed the history of AEW and of professional wrestling in the last years. 10/10"

[8.0] "This is a really solid babyface promo. Cody has definitely gotten better on the mic since The Rock's involvement. He's great at playing to the crowd and perfectly incorporates references to some of his charitable work."

[8.0] "A little too short before Uso's interruption, but what's here is great. Drew's frustration with the cash-in comes across perfectly, and some of the lines he comes out with are hysterical. Bondage Undertaker was a particular highlight."

[10.0] "Punk and Drew may be the company's hottest rivalry right now; this is the perfect showcase. Two of the absolute best talkers in the game verbally spar with each other seemingly unscripted. The lines they come up with are great digs, genuinely hilarious at times, and sell the feud perfectly. Even Seth's involvement towards the end doesn't interrupt things, as he manages to help get the best out of the two and doesn't come out with anything particularly cringe-worthy."

[9.0] "Love the work, Drew's has shown how became one of WWE's best talkers, seeing the pivot foreshadowed makes it better after rewatching it, seeing where we end. It's just three of the greatest talker having a debate, and it was always fun to see where this end. The story of Drew, Seth, and Cody were all shown here and we didn't realize where it truly went."

[] "This was Drew McIntyre's promo from the April 8, 2024 episode of Monday Night Raw. He said all of those words and he said them very well."

[10.0] "Another god tier HBK promo where he pretty much becomes the biggest heel in the company. It's a really fun segment where he ends up disappearing when Undertaker arrives and then you get an over the top "KANE IS COMING" from Paul Bearer. Loving this feud."

[9.0] "This promo was very, very good. An emotional Drew McIntyre with some killer lines. His rage was palpable. Loved it and believed every word he said."

[10.0] "If everything had gone right, this would still have been a goofy segment, but probably would've been forgotten fairly quickly. But Shockmaster tripping and falling through the wall brought this into the realm of legend. From the fall itself, to how it sent everything else off the rails - Davey Boy breaking character, to Sid refusing to break character, to even Ole cracking up on-mic at the beginning of the Shockmaster's lines, it has to be one of the most unintentionally hilarious segments ever in wrestling. It goes a long way to proving the idea that when wrestling is good it's good, and when it's bad it's still good. From any tangible metric, this was a complete failure, but because I can't think of many wrestling segments I've gotten more pure entertainment value from, I really can't justify giving it any lower rating."

[10.0] "With the promo for what would indeed turn out to be his final match, Regal accomplishes so much - not just promoting the match itself, but also reflecting on the successes and failures of his own career, setting up for his impending retirement, and strongly putting over his opponent as virtually unbeatable. As it goes on he goes through a range of emotions, from wistful reflection, to coping with his impossible task, to a final rally of determination, to finally accepting and even liking his fate. The line about how he needs "a miracle - and that's not coming to a faithless old villain like myself" gets me every time. An absolute masterclass and easily on my personal shortlist of all-time favorite promos."

[10.0] "William Regals brief time in FCW and later NXT led to some of the best work of his career. This promo prior to his last match with Cesaro was a perfect way to reflect on his career while also showing fire and speaking on how good of a competitor Cesaro was. One of his best."

[8.0] "This was a short promo with Drew expressing his frustration with being cashed in on right after he had achieved his dream of winning a world title in front of an audience. He also took shots at Punk who attacked him before Priest cashed in the briefcase."

[10.0] "I cannot think of Savage without thinking of two things: Steamboat match, and his endlessly self-replicating packets of cream."

[8.0] "Funny. Fine. Mick/Edge/Christian were always great together. Humor that's obviously a relic of sorts but all the people involved are great at delivery. So."

[10.0] "Such an incredible promo, with genuinely the only negative part about this is that its related to one of the biggest dropped balls of all time. I remember watching his interview on Inside the Ropes about this promo, and how it's one thing to just shoot in a promo, but another to actually tie it all into story line. Paulie is quite literally one of the best of all time when it comes to something like this, and he does it beautifully here. Also, it's just really fun to see people get to say whatever they want to Vince without facing the consequences, because genuinely fuck him."

[9.0] "Ton of killer lines here, from the sex joke (5 minutes longer than you last in bed), to Bondage Undertaker, this promo was killer. Despite it's length, conveys all of McIntyre's emotions after losing his world title so quickly. I seriously can't wait for Drew McIntyre and CM Punk's rivalry when Punk's officially clear for in ring."

[10.0] "The Firefly Funhouse expanded wildly on what wrestling is and can be, and the fact that it came out of WWE of all places is both an incredible testament to how much good will there was for Bray's creativity and how aware the promotion was that it needed something new. There's a lot to critique and dissect in regards to The Fiend, Lord knows people have, but I think here, in this moment, Bray started something beautiful and fully, perfectly realized."

[9.0] "What a solid promo, a frustrated Drew McIntyre after getting screwed over by CM Punk at WrestleMania XL."

[9.0] "It was one of those promos that cheered up the viewers while being simple and short and went viral. Drew is really great in everything and is the best and most entertaining wrestler in WWE."

[7.0] "Drew McIntyre keeps on delivering his best character work and doesn't miss a beat. I love this whole story of his, his feud with Punk and Rollins and this promo just keeps me engaged to it. McIntyre is so pissed his long awaited moment was ruined by Punk and Bondage Undertaker (fucking genius) and he came out to crying about it and swearing some revenge on both men, specially Punk. I don't know about you, but I'd love to eventually see a Triple Threat of Punk, Drew and Rollins, and also a 1 on 1 match between Punk and McIntyre giving how things are happening."

[10.0] "You can tell from the joy in Bryan's eyes that this is a man who's got his life back. And man, six years on, I still get goosebumps at the entire crowd at the American Airlines Center pointing to the WrestleMania sign for him. A great promo from one of the greatest wrestlers of all time."

[8.0] "Heyman does most of the work but this was good from Brock and a sign of things to come later once Heyman leaves him"

[7.0] "A good promo with the rock just doing the catch phrases and the people pleasers, overall a great moment with the rocks returns"

[6.0] "Cringe Ill be real, some good stuff but punk has better rock has far better but not bad overall a good feud and a promo that is still talked about to his day with punk making a reference the other week. But I do think its become really overrated I, o"

[7.0] "This promo has the cadence of Gilbert Gottfried and the content of Danhausen, and it features the line: "I'm the first international model from Parts Unknown." It's rambly nonsense in an old school, fuck-it-we'll-do-it-live sort of way, but it's so funny and has enough insanity to it that I can forgive its repetition and padding near the end."

[0.0] "Even if Booker T had won, this promo would've still been unacceptable. 0 should really only be reserved for the worst of the worst, and this, famously, is it. I would be horrified by anyone that needs why that is explained to them."

[2.0] "Ultimately this worked out in the end, which is why I won't give it a 0, but it still remains as maybe the biggest miscalculation HHH has had as a booker to date. There is some poisonous part of me that wants to give a slightly higher score because I think it lead to a more interesting story for Cody, but that's far too much credit to give this. I don't think I have anything else to say that you haven't already heard--this is a famously bad segment and deserves the ridicule its received."

[10.0] "Damn Paul Bearer was a great villain for the show. I have to note the he was attacked by a fan before he could even do anything and he still didn't look like it phased him. This was a great storyline!"

[7.0] "Retrospectively, it aged well. In the zeitgeist of 2009, it was an ok promo. Few namedrops and pops, USA chants, a promo followed by a brawl. Nothing too spicy or inspiring but it can't go overly wrong. Perhaps not a paragon of good virtue but it was indeed Mr.McMahon who chose Drew. Being introduced by McMahon was often recognized as a blessing. It was just like that back in 2009 and it was like that ever since (as we saw with Theory). In the end he became the WHC. It was not the most memorable runs out there but it was something compared to his later 3MB fellows. Even if he was not as killer as he's today he had that cocky and agressive side to him which suited him decently."

[6.0] "A sweet promo that didn't do much, but it at least solidified the friendship between Randy Orton & Riddle into becoming RK-Bro, one of the best tag teams in a long while up until that point. It can also be helped by the fact that they won an electric Tag Team Triple Threat match earlier. It didn't do much, but it did what it was assigned to do well."

[10.0] "This surely sits on the Mount Rushmore of heel promos, and by god, Rock knew it. I mean, sure, on its face, it looks like a generic "your town and your sports team sucks, your rival town and their sports team rules", but what makes it truly special is that Sacramento is evidently still very sore about the Lakers being the beneficiary of officiating so dodgy it makes the English Premier League look downright clean. Which is why, with a shit-eating grin and like Babe Ruth, Rock calls his shot with the "hey, check this out" before delivering that final line to nuclear heat. The fact that the Kings never got as far to even get beat by the Lakers that May only adds to how iconic the promo is."

[6.0] "It's more than clear that Cryme Tyme and the "WWE Divas" was emblematic of a racist and sexist regime, but putting aside the racism of booking and television presentation, there is genuinely a funny moment here. JBL thanking the U.S. government for bailing out Wall Street is hilarious heel work, and then juxtaposed with JTG and Shad bringing in a bunch of women to JBL's limo? And Sgt. Slaughter? Sometimes, it's easy to look beyond some things with how funny JTG and Shad are here."

[10.0] "Its often said that Chris Benoit couldn't talk, and his natural intensity, made up for it. I think this is evidence that he could."

[10.0] "Mark Henry. The Worlds Strongest Man. The Hall of Pain Inductor. The Salmon Jacket Fisherman. Sexual Chocolate. The Father of the Hand."

[10.0] "The Rock is The Rock, so none of what he did was surprising, but HURRICANE! Man, he was one of the few guys that came out of WCW, looking like a star."

[9.0] "Excellent promo. It felt a little long-winded, especially with Paul E doing his, "YOU PEOPLE" thing."

[10.0] "It's like NFL trading players, but its two wrestlers trading catchphrases. This is such good shit pal."

[10.0] ""You know they say all men are created equal. But you look at me and you look at Samoa Joe and you can see that statement is not true. See, normally if you go one on one with another wrestler, you got a 50-50 chance of winning. But I'm a genetic freak and I'm not normal. So you got a 25 per cent - at best - to beat me. And then you add Kurt Angle to the mix, your chances of winning drastically go down. You see, the three way at Sacrifice you got a 33 and 1/3 chance of winning. But I, I got a 66 and 2/3 chance of winning cause Kurt Angle knows he can't beat me and he's not even gonna try. So Samoa Joe, you take your 33 and 1/3 chance, minus my 25 per cent chance and you got an 8 and 1/3 chance of winning at Sacrifice. But then you take my 75 per cent chance of winning if it goes one on one and then add the 66 and 2/3 per cent chance, I got a 141 and 2/3 chance of winning at Sacrifice. See Joe, the numbers don't lie and they spell disaster for you at Sacrifice." I once typed this word for word in tenth grade at school on an antique typewriter."

[10.0] "Bringing Christianity into wrestling is very hard. Jake Roberts doing it made ZERO sense, but Shawn in this promo made it work best. I know in the past there have been other references, whether it's how during the DX reunion Shawn didn't swear or do anything sexual, or where Vince McMahon "AND THE PRODUCT OF MY SEMEN, MY SON SHANE! " vs Shawn Michaels and "God", or Vince McMahon drinking holy water."

[10.0] "This culminated, in the most ridiculous stipulation match of all time, THAT HAD NO RIGHT TO WORK, AND YET DID! Dom will probably be involved in a match where its Nia Jax vs Rhea Ripley, Custody of Dom Dom II."

[10.0] "idk if Rebecca was selling, or if she was legit really hurt, I know Shawn was PISSED backstage, and rightfully so. you don't hit someone's wife."

[8.0] "Michaels was higher than RVD at home, so this isn't his greatest, but its still quite good. and of course its 1997 Shawn Michaels so Vince is licking his bunghole."

[10.0] "PICKLE PICKLE PICKLE PICKLE PICKLE PICKLE PICKLE PICKLE PICKLE PICKLE PICKLE PICKLE PICKLE PICKLE PICKLE PICKLE PICKLE"

[9.0] "I think this is the promo that really made Trips a star. I know people claim the whole Ashton Kutcher/Tara Ried thingy, but he was huge well before that happened."

[7.0] "Look, this promo is iconic. It's funny, and it's a meme icon. But here's what brings it down: It's for a, no THE garbage wrestling promotion, CZW, it's for a match with "The Bank Addicted Drug Robber", and it would frankly be somewhat cringe inducing, if it wasn't so funny. So, while I obviously laugh whenever i see this promo, I can't help but think that 73 people gave it a 10 for the memes. Sorry, it's a 7. It's not lower, because you cannot deny the passion and energy from ZanyDig, and his goofy ahh stuttering, and "OH MY, AUGH" "JEEZUS"."

[9.0] "Drew is so underrated on the mic. Here he really talks from heart. very personal promo and that is what make this work."

[10.0] "There is just something really fun about this promo. Maybe 10 is too high for it, but I don't really care. Eli Drake can cut such a promo that connects to the crowd so easily and loud EVEN when hes not sober. Even when he makes a mistake he can make it work regardless. YEAH!"

[10.0] "If you can take a fight for the title of an independent promotion and turn it into one of the most important things in the world during a promo, making it drip in emotion and have every word mean something, taking people who never care for independent wrestling and/or never seen a single CHIKARA match in their life and making them enveloped into it, you are simply one of the best of all time."

[10.0] "Hangman was right. 100% right. Like Eddie was right, like Moxley was right. Even MJF was right (except it was not PG Punk, it is Corporate Man Punk)."

[10.0] "Like so many of the promos cut against Punk during his tenure in AEW, this ages like a fine wine, and this particular promo probably takes the prize for the most prophetic. On its surface, its nothing we've not seen before; people have been calling CM Punk a self-serving hypocrite since before he set foot in ROH. I mean, yes, there is a small amount of winking at the scuttlebutt of Punk's fallout with Colt Cabana, but it isnt needed at all to follow along with this promo. But something happened to Punk in that his long hiatus from the ring made him bitter not just at one man or one company, but anyone who would surpass him on the stick or on the ring. And every moment since this promo has only proven Hangman right. Brawl Out. Banning people from Collision. Brawl In. And as I write this, Punk goes on a podcast and tells Ariel Helwani that by gum, paying wrestlers what they're worth just isnt good business sense! Like Mox, like MJF, like Eddie, Page read Punk to filth and Punk got so upset that someone would dare shoot on the Man Who Drops Pipe Bombs, apparently he even called in the lawyers. Like Mox said, fragile ego, fragile body, weak mind, weak spirit. And at the end of the day, you can't help but admit that Hangman was right all along."

[10.0] "One of the most pure and emotional promos ever done, everything worked on this, everything, is raw emotion to a level no wrestling fan has ever felt, perfection"

[10.0] "A very personal promo between Drew McIntyre and Seth Rollins where Drew McIntyre shines yet again. This, along with the promos he's had with Punk after the Royal Rumble and infamous Rollins-Punk-Drew promo, is my favourite Drew McIntyre promo of all time. What I love about this promo so much was the touch of personal Drew got when he mentioned chasing his dreams and the cost it took for that, and drawing a parallel to what Becky had to go through as well."

[8.0] "Cody cut a decent promo but seem more focused on playing to the crowd. The Rock unexpectedly interrupting the promo as well as his entrance and the shot of Cody looking at him were amazing. He then whispered something to Cody which led to one of the best Raw endings ever."

[] "I'm not rating this because it is realistically a 0/10 promo, but it's so bad that it may just be one of the most memorable, unintentionally hilarious promos of all time."

[8.0] "A great promo from the head of the Women's Division in all of Pro Wrestling. she is a real boss and this is characteristic of everything. This promo was great. I can't wait to see her compete in the AEW ring because that's the day the AEW women's division reaches its all-time high."

[9.0] "Great Promo. It didn't feel scripted as all three of them seemed natural and focused. There were several funny moments in the promo that had me laughing but it also showcased all three of the participants well with nobody looking bad or like they don't belong in the main event scene."

[8.0] "Thought that this was a good Rhode's promo as have been most of his promos in this feud. I thought that he hit Roman Reigns and the Rock well and the fans were into it and participating before the Rock came out."

[8.0] "Good promo from Cody. Played to the crowd a lot at the beginning to got them going. Further explained his motivation and how much beating Roman means to him. Really liked the line about Cody respecting Roman but still hating his guts. Having the crowd point to the WrestleMania sign with him was a little hokey, but for Cody it works with how over he is. The Rock's surprise entrance was perfectly done. The crowd went nuts and the shot of Cody in the ring watching Rock was fantastic. Rock slowly walking up to Cody and whispering his threat to make Cody bleed before slinking away was a great setup to one of the best endings of an episode of Raw ever. 8/10"

[3.0] "Vastly, vastly overrated segment. John Cena is a funny guy when he feels like he doesn't care about a match but the sheer magnitude of one-sidedness here felt a little unkind. It was like shoving a fat kid into a deep swimming pool and saying "just paddle, stupid". Cena and Reigns sling mud at each other with a load of insider terms and fourth-wall breaking quips. "See ya fourth wall! " still makes me cringe. It doesn't do anything to actually build to the match, all it does is make Roman look out of his depth. Doesn't make Cena look good that Roman beat him, either."

[7.0] "Cute and lighthearted. Punk continues to be the most engaging and interesting person in the wwe, to no-one's surprise. Drew was funnier here than he is on Twitter. Seth was there to get the match over so he wasn't too focused on being feisty. I probably wont watch it but i'll keep my eye on it"

[4.0] "I simply do not believe that The Rock really has the hatred and conviction to be "The Final Boss". He's an actor. He's pretending. He doesn't actually care about Cody or his mother. I just do not believe it, to be frank."

[7.0] "I enjoyed this promo. Looking back I do understand why people are calling it generic. That being said telling her true story about how she dropped out to take care of her brother is special. Crowd seemed to love her and she came across as a big deal."

[8.0] "A pretty okay segment overall, with an amazing payoff at the end of the show. Dwayne's presence on this show was unexpected and the beatdown at the end of the show was oh so unbelievable to look at, even as someone who wants Cody to win at the end of WrestleMania night 2."

[9.0] "Even though I absolutely am not one for CM Punk's selachian aerial acrobatics as of late, on the other hand, Cody continues to prove why he is WWE's MVP and, if they're smart, they put the belt on him Sunday week. With the awful post-Rumble antics firmly in the rear-view mirror, I find myself pleasantly surprised that, for once, the Rock is contributing something positive to a storyline that on some level I still believe he is surplus to. But I understand WWE want to go for the big Avengers: Endgame feel for Mania this year, which is typified by the magnificent entrance Rock got befitting his new Final Boss gimmick. My worry that this could turn out to be WWE's Starrcade '97 moment is rapidly retreating, although the skies are still cloudy yet. Time will tell if WWE will manage to keep viewer interest in a way Marvel have struggled with since 2019, but the portents, for once, look good."

[10.0] "This promo is insane, incomprehensible, and hilarious. That being said this is my favorite promo of all time just because of its quotability. 10/10 promo and the funniest thing I have ever heard."

[9.0] "One of the most memorable promos in the history of WWE, which was the setting for one of the best endings of a show in the history of WWE. I give this promo 9 points."

[8.0] "It was a good promo and this promo and character are the best things that Carmelo has been offering throughout his career and it is really good and strong. I give this promo 8 points."

[10.0] "One of the best and of course the most memorable promos of the last few years of wrestling, which was the official start of Drew and Punk's feud after the end of Punk's injury. I give this promo 10 points."

[9.0] "What a segment, one of the best promo battles of the year, specially by Punk and Drew, they went back and forth roasting each other, and I respect Drew so much more after this one, he's really making the most out of these storyline with Punk. Punk was unhinged here, a lot of interruptions and non-scripted stuff, that could easily expose Drew or put him in an uncomfortable situation, but Drew handled it pretty well, and never let the guard down, proving to be one of the best mic workers today, that was really hard to do, could easily go down like Cena vs Roman in 2017, Punk was pushing everything, big props to Drew. When Seth came it was clear that the angle shifted from a improvised back and forth to something more scripted and organized, and it wasn't on the same level, but still good and necessary to end the whole thing in a good way. I can't give it a perfect rating because of the level drop at the end, but still a phenomenal moment."

[0.0] "I don't want people to think about my father when they see me so I'm going to talk about my father in my in my literal first promo with the company. That has to be the dumbest thing I've ever heard. I don't feel like seeing him in anything after this."

[9.0] "Overall, solid promo. Cody was angry here, which is way better than what we got on Smackdown. If Cody hated Romans guts why would he attempt to shake his hand, here there was none of that. The rock coming out was a genuinely awesome surprise, and sometimes nothing is more, this leading to the payoff we got at the end of the show, made total sense and was awesome to see."

[1.0] "Overly long, uninspired, and only existed to give Triple H a reason to be SOOOOPER DOOOPER mad at Randy Orton. Even in 2009 wrestling didn't need those two feuding even more. It didn't help that their big payoff match at Wrestlemania that year was a plain wrestling match and not a no dq of some kind. Stephanie McMahon one upping wrestlers was another eye rolling trope during this era. There were a lot of great things about WWE in 2009, HBK/Undertaker, Cena/Edge, Ricky Steamboat's comeback, Jericho/Rey, Christian returning and a lot more. The point being none of it involved the McMahons or Triple H."

[6.0] "This was a short promo right after RKBro won the Raw tag team titles. The match before this promo was good and it seemed like Orton was genuinely enjoying this run. Too bad the RKbro story could not finish since Orton got injured and Riddle got fired later."
