Ace309 Posted September 12, 2003 Report Posted September 12, 2003 Frost's "shoot interview" with Howard Stern. It was just incredible.
Secret Agent Posted September 12, 2003 Report Posted September 12, 2003 Surely there is more than one promo that was good, Tammo.
Edwin MacPhisto Posted September 12, 2003 Report Posted September 12, 2003 Well, I'm not sure if CC is supposed to be nominating here or what, but I wanted to mention Z's minor epic, The Luvin' Spoonful, a January venture that took him like a week or something to write. It is the lost Carnie epic, one of the last high points of the stable before it melted. Too bad he and Kibs never really got the feud going as well as they wanted, but still: grand promo, insanely funny, and good with characters to boot. YOU JUST WANTED THE NARRATION TO STOP YELLING, MY BAD indeed.
Coffin Surfer Posted September 13, 2003 Report Posted September 13, 2003 Ash Ketchum Training Day (Act 2) -Very funny stuff that might be forgotten considering how long ago it was.
Crowe Posted September 13, 2003 Report Posted September 13, 2003 Um. Janus' fucked up promo where he got cut by Kibagami. I forget the actual name.
5_moves_of_doom Posted September 13, 2003 Report Posted September 13, 2003 In the fade rule you No-seconding-rule aside. Werd to that. ELM's "Blue" was also pretty good, and I remember a particularly good Taamo one somewhere in there, but I can't put my finger on it... help me out Zed! You know!
janusd Posted September 13, 2003 Report Posted September 13, 2003 Um. Janus' fucked up promo where he got cut by Kibagami. I forget the actual name. I believe that was "Scars of the Body". The most royally psycho promo I've ever done
Dr. Tyler; Captain America Posted September 14, 2003 Report Posted September 14, 2003 Promo of the year.
Guest Suicide King Posted September 15, 2003 Report Posted September 15, 2003 Dammit Outcast. Back to actual SWF promos. I think ELM's farewell promo is fairly significant, and Flesher's King's Road promos were notable as well.
Dr. Tyler; Captain America Posted September 15, 2003 Report Posted September 15, 2003 I was just trying to trick someone into actually reading something I write. I can't actually get anyone to do that.
Justice Posted September 15, 2003 Report Posted September 15, 2003 Like we'd actually read any of your stuff ...
Dr. Tyler; Captain America Posted September 15, 2003 Report Posted September 15, 2003 Yeah, I'm used to that.
Justice Posted September 15, 2003 Report Posted September 15, 2003 Yeah, I'm used to that. Hey, just joshin' ya there. You know that, right?
Dr. Tyler; Captain America Posted September 15, 2003 Report Posted September 15, 2003 Eh, I know. I'm just used to spending hours upon hours on stuff and having like, 2 people read it. It's kinda why I miss SWF, because people would actually give you feedback, but then again... I can't write a match worth a damn, so it's a neverending circle of shit. But yes, I know.
Above Average Posted September 15, 2003 Report Posted September 15, 2003 (edited) Cast I read it. But why get invested in it, we all know the girls die in the end As great a promo as ever though. And now that we've established that... Speaking of retirement promos 'In the fade' by Edwin MacPhisto was beyond a shadow of a doubt, the best promo of the year, if it counts. Which it should. Edited September 15, 2003 by kelloggs
Dr. Tyler; Captain America Posted September 15, 2003 Report Posted September 15, 2003 I thought that was more than a year ago.
Above Average Posted September 15, 2003 Report Posted September 15, 2003 It was after G3. So if you want to get technical about it...
HVilleThugg Posted September 15, 2003 Author Report Posted September 15, 2003 For the record... The cycle is 2 weeks before Genesis III to a week ago. You'll have to do the match to figure out if a promo or match fits that range, but if it's in there, then it can be nominated. Da "words from on high" H

You'll have to do the match to figure out if a promo or match fits that range, but if it's in there, then it can be nominated. Da "words from on high" H In that case, why even nominate anything? "In the Fade" wins. But actually, there were a LOT of retirement promos right after Genesis, and I remember Raynor's being very funny, and Wilson's being pretty good too. Oh, and I second the Zed one that ended with the A-Team-esque golf cart escape.
Secret Agent Posted September 15, 2003 Report Posted September 15, 2003 Well, it looks like if I want to have even a chance I'll have to throw it out myself. Since, you know, it was so long ago that It was posted. "The Wrestling Identity" by Johnny Dangerous! (Y)
HVilleThugg Posted September 17, 2003 Author Report Posted September 17, 2003 THanks for the help...nominations being compiled Da "topic locked" H
