Just John 0 Report post Posted June 4, 2004 Ever since the advent of promos, certain wrestlers have had trademark words or lines that they try to include in most promos. Sayings like "Whatcha gonna do, when Hulkamania runs wild on you," "And that's the bottom line," and "Do you smell what the Rock is cooking" were wildly successful. Unfortunately, some wrestlers experimented with new phrases that weren't so popular and were quickly abandoned. Some continued to use their horrible lines. What are you're thoughts on the worst catchphrases ever? Shawn Michaels - "Neeeeeeeew world heavyweight champion" Sting - "It's showtime" Rock - "Shut up juice" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Youth N Asia 0 Report post Posted June 4, 2004 I don't care for Holly. But I liked his "Big Shot" gimmick. "You see the Big Show, you tell him THE BIG SHOT is lookin for him." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Papacita 0 Report post Posted June 4, 2004 Yeah, he was great as the Big Shot. His first month or so with Crash was cool too. As for catchphrases, Tazz-"Thug life born, thug life bred and when I die I'll be thug life dead" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nighthawk 0 Report post Posted June 4, 2004 "What?" Not under the 'never caught on' category, obviously. At it's core, it was magnificent, one of the greatest catchphrases ever. Then it was destroyed so utterly from overuse that it became one of the worst. It's really only suited for a super heel characterization as well. In a few years when nobody remembers it anymore, I'm going to start using it for myself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Man Of 1,004 Modes Report post Posted June 4, 2004 The funniest What moment was probably when Undertaker tricked the crowd into saying they slept with their sisters. A chant that never caught on...Thank God. "You are...an asshole!" Who could forget...the GREATEST CATCHPHRASE EVER!!!! "Tag." Ok, so it really isn't a phrase, but DEAR GOD IT WAS FUNNY.

ISportsFan 0 Report post Posted June 5, 2004 Right before Austin started doing "What?" incessantly, he had his paranoid character saying "My name is Stone Cold Steve Austin, and I am the World Wrestling Federation Champion" all the time. I felt it was good, since that's all he cared about. Then he started the "What?" and it went downhill. Jason Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
