^ What was your reason?

Well, now that Jericho has returned, I'm going to go with him, he just as an uncanny ability to play the crowd, he's very articulate and he's able to deliver his lines with such enthusiasm and with barely any mistakes, I enjoy watch Chris at work

Jericho and Santino tie it up for me. Jericho for the same reasons Ech pointed out, and Santino because he's the only guy that can keep me literally laughing out loud for the duration of the promo. No one else can do that.

[Shua]

I wouldn't say Jericho. Back in the day, before he got "fired", he was entertaining......now, it's become really childish. He's trying to be like the Rock, but failing miserabley.

Comedy-wise, it's definitely Santino. He reminds me of Piper back in the day, he was supposed to be a heel, but people found him very entertaining on the mic.

In serious promos, it's gotta be JBL. He's got a very unique character....and he definitely stepped up to the plate when he needed to.

Santino is amazing on the mic. He has new things to say each week, and never fails to make me laugh. He knows how to work a crowd better than most people at the moment, and is a really fresh bit of talent. Often he has been one of the main highlights of Raw, especially with some of the rubbish that has been produced lately.

Kennedy also deserves a mention. He came at just the right time for the WWE to use his mic skills, and due to this he knows how to have a good feud. Anyone else remember the Michaels promo? Classic.

As for Jericho, yeah his mic skills were second to none back in the day. I was kind of disappointed upon his return, as I expected new phrases and a little new skill. He was still awesome, maybe a little rusty, but after so long off it's understandable. He deserves an honourable mention in it.

Santino Marella: He has such a cockiness about him, that carries him well. The ability to butcher a language is amazing, & the only reason William Regal hates him, is because he's stolen Regal's spot for doing so. Santino's entire career was saved off of his ability to cut amazing promos on people & give the audience something to laugh, boo or cheer about.

Mr. Kennedy: When he first came into the W.W.E. all he was, was talk. In my opinion, its toned down a lot since his move from Smackdown to Raw.. he used to cut amazing promos, & the best one I've seen him cut was against Shawn Michaels. I can only hope we'll continue to see more from him.

Edge: The man is unbelieveable with promos. Anytime they give you, your own talk show, thats when you can safely say you're great at talking. Edge may not have the Cutting Edge anymore, but he can still come out & rip a person apart.

Shawn Michaels: Does ANYONE (other than Becca ) remember the Heartbreak Hotel? H.B.K. was golden on the mic, & he's only gotten better with time. The greatest skit I EVER seen him cut, was the mocking of Hulk Hogan/Larry King. The saddest promo I've seen him in, was the "Lost Smile" promo.. & the most controversial one, had to of been after he hit Undertaker (by mistake) yet the general number of fans turned against him. Shawn Michaels is unbelievable on the mic., & can make any wrestler look amazing just by talking about him.

EDIT:

Chris Jericho: Since returning, his promos aren't as good. To be honest, right up around when he was leaving, his promos really dropped. Some of his best work was against Chris Benoit, Stephanie & The Rock. I can only hope J.B.L. brings out the old Jericho within him.

M.V.P.: All the man does is talk anymore, but he does it because he can. He can make you hate him, before he ever gets into the ring. He can make you want to see him get hurt, because anyone ever lays a finger on him. M.V.P. is solid on the mic.. & his in-ring ability is amazing as well, which will definately lead him to become a huge Superstar in the short future.

Best for me on RAW would be Santino, and Smackdown would be Edge. I would agree with all the above but another guy I would add is William Regal. He is overshadowed because he is not in a wrestling role anymore. But he can cut some pretty funny to intense promos.

And we can't forgot Vincent Kennedy Mcmahon, although some have of his recent promos have become dull and boring, something about his demeanor always demands attention.

[Italian MVP]

I would have to go with Santino, MVP and of course Edge. These three are the best on the mic. Santino is so funny, MVP could be the future rock if he continues the way he has been going and edge always gets heel heat from the crowd. I would say Y2J, but he just hasnt seem to deliever upon his return.

[SuperPP]

When Jericho is on the mic i cant regeist. Hes just too funny and has tons if charisma. HBK is the same. MVP, edge are great too but i gotta go with HBK and y2J. Santino isnt good on mic. His gimmick is what keeps him going and his funny accent.

[World's Most Dangerous]

I'm going with Jericho on this one too. He's just so charasmatic and can play a variety of roles and do a variety of different promos. If we were talking about in their prime, I would probably take Flair, but he's kind of lost it. Not bad, but he's lost some of his edge.
