12. The American Dolphin
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FSh2s_lmthI Back in 2009, Bryan Danielson was working with former WWE high flyer Paul London in Pro Wrestling Guerilla, when the two of them recorded this promo to hype an upcoming tag match. London had been taking some improvisational comedy classes, and was seriously out on a limb - apparently this was the fifth or sixth take theyd tried, and the one that they kept, only because it was the one on which Danielson cracked up laughing the least. Its not all American Dragon as straight man, however - Danielson included the part about wanting fans to buzz at them instead of clapping, which was apparently passé. The video had racked up an impressive number of views by the time Danielson went to Germany a little while later. How did he know? Because the German fans buzzed at him, just as hed asked them to in the clip.
