10 Superstars whose talking skills didn't translate to good mic-skills

Sean Waltman

Sean Waltman

The Kliq buddy of Kevin Nash is up next. The current era of Fans might not have a fond memory of Sean. But Sean did make some solid contributions to the business. Stand out promos, however, does not belong to those contributions.

First of all, Waltman did not have many major feuds in the company. And secondly, the ones he had, didn’t have solid promos. Outside the squared circle, it was a different story. There are a lot of shoot videos where Waltman rips his fellow wrestlers. He is known to be a great communicator backstage as well. He is still making rounds in the business and it would be great to see him pull off a solid promo before retirement.

Matt Hardy

Matt Hardy

Matt Hardy might sound like a surprising entry into the list. But he deserves to be here. Hardy’s heroics with the microphone outside the ring are no secret. But Hardy is yet to prove his worth the microphone. The best promo that Hardy produced was the one during his Edge feud. It was filled with emotions but then again, the storyline was based on real life situations. So it was basically a shoot rather than a planned promo.

Almost all the other microphone work that Matt did during his career was well below average. Despite his microphone work, Matt Hardy is a legend in the business for everything he did during his prime.
