JoeDirt 0 Report post Posted February 26, 2004 This topic came to mind as I was watching an old Nitro from 1997 today. Ric Flair was doing an interview with Mean Gene and a few ladies that were with him, cutting a promo on Roddy Piper before their match at BatB. Okerlund asks one of the women about Flair, "Is it really true that he's the 60 minute man?" The woman thinks he's talking about Piper, and blurts out, "Yeah, more like 30 seconds!" What are some of your favorite promo blunders? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Man Of 1,004 Modes Report post Posted February 26, 2004 SummerSlam 1988 Mean Gene: Fuck it! Summerslam 1989* Let's not forget WWF 1995. Sid stumbles over the word "skeptics", says to Jim Ross "I'm sorry, can we do this agin" then J.R. goes "We're live pal." Dibiase's face looks like he's thinkin "Oh boy, what an idiot..."

WrestlingDeacon 0 Report post Posted February 26, 2004 What show was it where Harlem Heat was doing an interview and Booker T called Hulk Hogan a nigger? I know it was shortly after the nWo formed, making all the WCW guys defactor faces. And I can't believe that no one has yet to mention the infamous, "and that's why I kicked your leg out of your...uh...leg." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matt Young 0 Report post Posted February 26, 2004 I think that was Spring Stampede 1997. It seems like it happened earlier than that, but I'm 99% sure it was Spring Stampede and I know it was after the nWo formed. Harlem Heat, Lex Luger, and The Giant I believe were in a 4 way #1 contender's match for a shot at Hogan's title, and Booker ended a pre-match promo with a line like, "Hulk Hogan, we comin' for ya, nigga!"

Just John 0 Report post Posted February 26, 2004 How about when Curt Hennig was cutting a promo during his NWO days, and a fan threw a full drink at him and hit him in the back of the head? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Man Of 1,004 Modes Report post Posted February 26, 2004 How about when Curt Hennig was cutting a promo during his NWO days, and a fan threw a full drink at him and hit him in the back of the head? That's hardly Hennig's blunder. If he were in the middle of his sentence and just stumbled over words that made no sense, it would be a blunder...like so many Sid promos.

JJMc 0 Report post Posted February 27, 2004 I remember in '98, shortly after KOTR, Shamrock was feuding with Rocky Maivia. I can't remember the exact line, but somehow Shammy worked in "people's 'chinnercontinental' champion." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lil' Bitch 0 Report post Posted February 27, 2004 I never saw it, but I'll quote JHawk on his experience. Mine: A SmackDown taping in Cleveland just before No Mercy 2000. Road Dogg forgets where he is and goes "Detroit Rock City, welcome to the Dogg House!" The crowd completely turns on him and makes Raven the defacto face, pausing to chant "You're in Cleveland" for about a minute straight. The match is conveniently edited so that not only is Road Dogg's blunder off the air, but the match is cut from just over four minutes to about 2:35 to edit out the crowd chant. Oh, I wish I could have seen that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
