Rock and Austin are the kings of adlib and can just go with the flow of anything, although I'll have Austin higher because of Rocks over reliance if cutesy catchphrase.

Ric is the best at going on a tangent and just screaming into the mic about anything while working a program with you, like a Colin Cowherd using analogies t

Shawn is the hardest to rank because while he has flashes of peaks as high as any shit eating smarmy heel, there isn't a huge sample size because his best work were in 97 and then he got hurt and missed the whole attitude era. Prior to that he was either being a typical heel or babyface hearthrob in a cartoon era where nobody was remembered for their promos, or just great promos at all during that period

Lmao at putting Dwaynnetty there. Catchphrase meme man that never won a 1v1 promo battle and got eviscerated by Cana and Phil in the shitty PG era

/pw/ zoomers don't remember the cringe worthy days of Cookie Puss and other Dwayne cringe

Austin and Flair are the overall best wrestling style promos. They could seamlessly go from intensity to comedy to flamboyance or passion sometimes all within the same promo.
Rock is the best for one liner style character driven stuff, but he doesn't have much range beyond that
Michaels isn't anything special as a wrestling promo, but 97 coked up worked shoot 24/7 HBK may have been the best promo in history simply because it was just a legit asshole being himself and still being able to seemlessly tie that into his wrestling feuds without any major 4th wall breaking wink wink shit

mic skills translating to ticket sales

Austin, Flair, Rock, HBK. Rock fucking sucks though. I don't know why OP put HBK here. He's not some legendary promo
>>
>>20567924
michaels should be 0, he was an anti-draw
>>
>>20567916
flair is very overated on the mic and in the ring. every good match he ever had was because of his opponent, he made a career out of going from town to town wrestling in front of people who hadnt seen him wrestle before, its crazy to be that hes able to have some sort of goat status just because he held a belt a lot in a sport with pre determined outcomes 20 times
>>
I remember many rock, austin and flair catchphrases and promos. I don't remember any of shawn's.
>>
>>20568024
Does he even have any? It's bizarre Shawn was included at all. He's known for work rate more than anything. He could have put Scott Steiner or something and it would make more sense.
>>
>>20566685
I don't remember a single Shawn promo besides him doing that blowjob gesture
>>
>>20566685
It's a tough ine for me.
Austin is great after the 3:16 promo. But he brought the What chants into existence.
Michaels was great on his IC to ME run. But than he came back after his "injury vacation" and was shit
Rock was great, but than i found out everything was written for him by some tiny twerp
Flair was great but i only saw crazy old guy flair at first
>>
>>20567499
Shawn was an insane heat magnet at times but he was pretty bad on the mic tbqh. To be fair his run was way longer and unlike the others he had to deal with shitty ruthless aggression and PG era material, but still
>>
Shawn was such a shit promo even Triple Paul was better

Rock had to go more infantile in the PG/woke era when he couldn't call guys fags and women sluts.
