4. Wrestlemania V Promo - WWF (1989)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oqa2Ocrg1Ag Seriously, the most frightening promo in pro wrestling history. Maybe not the "best," but it's the one time where you're absolutely certain that Randy Savage has completely lost in in real life and could easily murder Hulk Hogan in cold blood at Wrestlemania V. It's almost like an "anti-sell" of the show it feels so serious. If a child and parent were watching this and the child was convincing the parent to order Wrestlemania, it's as if they would, but send their kid to bed beforehand just in case. Off-the-charts intensity here. Amazing.
