10 infamous microphone blunders from wrestling history

Hulk Hogan — Even legends have an off day sometimesLet's face it - not every pro-wrestler can have the same savoir-faire on the microphone as, say, The Rock. I would even go as far to say that, historically, there are more people who are bad on the mic than there are people who are good on the mic.

#8 R-Truth forgets where he is

[Skip to 1:09]

"What's up?!" Well, the city R-Truth thought he was about 120 miles north of where they actually were, so...I guess Green Bay is up?

R-Truth was doing his usual entrance, rapping along before asking the local crowd "what's up?" Unfortunately for Truth, he did not remember which city in Wisconsin they were in at the time. So, with his usual fervour, Truth shouted, "Green Bay, Wisconsin!!! What's up?!"

Problem was, they weren't in Green Bay - they were in Milwaukee.

Annoying heel play-by-play commentator Michael Cole caught onto the mistake almost right away, though Truth seemed to have no idea. So, the fans chanted "Milwaukee" at him and Mason Ryan during their match.

Maybe this is where WWE got the idea to make R-Truth completely clueless all the time.
