Like don't get me wrong he is really good on the mic and a very good speaker that can grab your attention but I can't remember one single promo of his. Like they all sound the same with the same flow and same writing template patterns with the same buzzwords but there is just no substance to them. Sometimes I'm convinced he just recycles the same promo but just replaces the wrestlers name and rearranges some words and sentences. Hell I can't remember one single unique line from one of his promos that's unique only to that promo.
I just wish they have him cut most of his promos during in ring segments with other wrestlers in the ring or having promo battles. Just something different to make them more memorable.

I thought his Cena stuff where he talked about John really being a monster was quite good.
Of course, they did nothing with that in the end.

The "red in a world of black and white" promo on Jericho last Smackdown was a good one for me, and a great line.
I think he might be getting overexposed with some of his schtick. If anything, I think cutting promo after promo every week on the same topic is watering down his material - he has to keep drawing out his motivations and his messages, to the point where it's hard to put them all together. He also never really seems to do that big go-home promo that really defines a feud, just a lot of intermediary promos that sustain week to week interest.

The promo where he just started speaking in Tongue in the UK was pretty amazing if you ask me.
Also, he's a False Prophet and playing the gimmick perfectly. All they do is preach the same thing too, and people follow them, no matter what. If his words sound fake to you, well, they in reality should. His words are supposed to be empty, he's a manipulator.
He's essentially a PG Charles Manson.
So yeah, love Wyatt. The gimmick to me is perfect right now.

Eh.
Has anyone really cut an intentionally memorable promo lately?
I can't think of any.

As tired as I got of the "The Whole World In His Hands" thing, I loved the delivery of the one where he was talking about his teacher as a kid, and said "Ms Teacher Lady, look at me now. I got the whole damn world in my hands!" www.youtube.com/watch?v=uRUTIK2BUVE#t=244He REALLY should have ended it there...

The promo about masks and how men slave to the man and beautiful women hid their natural beauty to feed the monsters of the machine. Never seen anyone with a year of promo's like Wyatt. The boring chant stunned me.

Wyatt bores me to tears. Dude's all sizzle and no steak, none of his promos make a lick of sense. If his first major feud was with anybody but Cena the crowd would have already started to turn on him.

Yeah, that feud could easily have been stretched a couple more matches/PPV with the idea of Bray developing/bringing out this monster in Cena. It gave Bray the sinister quality he works well with. You can still throw in the children at the end of the feud for the creep factor for the audience.

I've liked all of his promos but the most memorable is one of the first times he sung, & pretty much all of his work against Cena. Unfortunately he's wasted on Cena.

I'm not a big fan of this style because there's no substance to it.

His leaving NXT promo was quite memorable in my opinion.

His last promo in NXT was great, although that's largely due to the novelty of him essentially being a face and the emotion of his last NXT appearance. I guess that serves as a reminder that it's not always the content of the promo but the circumstances surrounding it. youtu.be/aBIKed_9gfg?t=2m30s
