My favorite is The Rock's promo before Armageddon in a cell. It was awesome. He did pretty much spot on impersonations of all of his opponents. Oh, I also liked the DX parody of the NOD.

"I'm not very fond of 'the black people.' If there was any man in history that I would love to make tap out...it would be Jesus!"
Something like that, its been awhile since I've heard it. ;D
Seriously though, Paul Heyman's epic rant on Vince leading up to Survivor Series '01 was a thing of beauty. Although it made me kinda hate WWF for awhile, so maybe it had the opposite effect of what it was supposed to have.

I'd say CM Punk's one when he came out at a PPV to trash the audience right at the beginning of the Straight Edge 'gimmick' was historic for his character progression.
The series of promos between Jericho & HBK around the summer of 2008 will prove to be historic in the future too I think.
The Miz's just last week where he went through his career and how he proved everyone wrong will be looked back on as historic if he does go on to be a main eventer for years to come.

A lot of different promos, mostly coming out of Jake Roberts, Jim Cornette, Paul Heyman, Joey Styles, Jim Ross, Vince McMahon, Eric, Bischoff, Steve Austin, the Rock, Shawn Michaels, or Chris Jericho.

Shortly after Austin aligned with Vince in 2001. He was interviewed by J.R. on Smackdown. I can't remember exactly what was said (which makes me saying it was historic kind of strange) but when Austin "snapped" and started beating the living daylights out of J.R., Vince walks out and says:
"Austin! Austin! Stop! That's your best friend out there... and you're taking it easy on him!"
"C'mon Austin! Open eeeemmmm up, dammit! Open eeeem up!".
For some reason, I'll always remember that.

Hm. -The 'promo' McMahon cut that officially began the Attitude Era, where he name-checked Jerry Springer. -The very first "Cornette's Commentary", where he basically stepped up and ripped everyone in WCW a new one, collectively and individually. -Austin's "Pink tights- what's THAT about, Bret?" promo. (Austin 3:16 granted, but this was an awesome 'packaged' long-form promo.) -Shane Douglas' rejection of the NWA title, then taking up the ECW title in its place. (Coffin? Nail.)

One of my all time favourites which I haven't seen since it aired and I hvaen't been able to find it:
When Triple H attacked Eugene in the summer of 2004 and William Regal came out and cut the promo of his life, it was incredible.
"I've done some dastardly things in my life, but you took advantage of a disadvantaged boy!"
I can't remember the rest, I just remember it being really really epic.
