10 Legendary Wrestlers Who Couldn't Cut A Promo

10. Sid

"You can wear any Halloween costume you want, but you know and I know, you're only half the man I am... and I only have half the brain that you do!"

Oh, Sid. Dear, precious Sid.

The snippet above comes from the most famous promo of the giant's career - a hilarious self-own in which Sid shredded his own brainpower while attempting to ether Kevin Nash. It sits somewhere between Kalisto's "good lucha things" at Jumpin' Jeff Farmer's "yip" on the list of all-time great promo misfires, but that's what happened when you gave Sid a microphone. He imploded.

The old Sycho had roughly three things going for him as a performer:-

1. Presence.

2. Size.

3. Intensity.

... but damn if he wasn't fun to watch. Sid was a dangerous mountain of a man, bringing a bumbling chaos totally unique to him. That you knew the wheels could come off at any second (and they did, frequently) was part of the appeal, though Shawn Michaels proved the big oaf was carryable on occasions and he had enough about him to score four World Title wins across WCW and WWE.

Perhaps he shouldn't get too much credit for that: few WWE Champions had drawn less money at the time.
