So like I love a great Raven promo quite a bit, but honestly I think I love bad Raven promos even more. Dude was hilarious when he was just at a total loss for things to say.
It's so hard to convey...It's very...It's really f***ing hard alright?

I don't remember if it was a true bad good promo, but at one of the XPW reunion shows for some reason Raven had the mic during his whole match and was doing bored shit talking the whole time.

Raven, when he had a point to make and a story to get his teeth into was incredible. Raven, when he had no point and was just sent out to talk was Wyatt level of rambly bad.
Still great though

Adored Raven as a teen and was so hyped when he won the NWA title after being wasted by WWE for so long.
Now I look back at Raven and it's just a reminder of how cringy I was as a teen.

The Raven character, as impactful as he was, becomes way more amusing when you start to think of him as Johnny Polo in his own little cosplay.

Still great though And by 1999 he hit this weird patch of combining the Raven character with his previous incarnations. In that there was more humor in his promos from that point on. The ECW version was a totally different character. WCW up till that point too, to a degree.

But his 95-97 run has positioned as the top heel in a way he never was after that, so super serious, no comedy (except beating up Stevie and his various goons). But yeah the 'spoiled rich boy' skits which leant waaaaay into his earlier incarnations. Actually the subject of Raven's promos came up in the 'You've got to be kidding me' and it was exactly this. Great when he had a point, cringe when he didn't.
