#1 The Rock

It doesn't matter what your name is!
It doesn't matter what your name is!

The Rock is easily one of the greatest wrestlers in WWE history, but if I had to choose between only watching The Great One's matches or only listening to his promos, I'll pick the latter because of simply how entertaining they were.

The Rock's WWE career is filled with iconic one-liners. I'm pretty sure that just like me, you've also enacted your own version of "it doesn't matter what your name is" or "if you can smell what The Rock is cooking" at least once in your lifetime.

The Brahma Bull was not nearly as active as a competitor during his second run in WWE in the 2010s, but it was mic work that allowed him to charm audiences worldwide. It was his promo on RAW back in 2011 on his return to live WWE TV that also sowed the seeds for his eventual feud with John Cena.

His backstage interview in the build-up to the six-men Hell in a Cell match for the then-WWF title at Armageddon is one of the most hilarious things you'll ever see in WWE programming.
