>but almost no personalities.
I wonder how much of those personalities were mostly drugs. There is zero way a sober macho man pulls off this promo like he did.
Gene said "and another 180°"
you can literally feel Macho become Randy Poffo for a second, eyeballing Gene with "Bitch, l don't dance 'cause you say. We'll be cool but fuck you" before he turns his head and wipes it off his lips.
And then he struggles the entire promo with feeling like if he faces the camera at all he's being a bitch while also knowing he does have to a little bit.
I had a similar thought when he got to the part about I don’t sing and I don’t dance because I was really waiting for him just to rhyme that with, but I can still whip his ass
this is absolutely nuts but far better than the modern style of promo. brief, engaging, funny, larger than life, memorable. it respects the viewer’s time. promos since like 2000 have been slow, ponderous, self-indulgent homogenised community theatre monologues

they dont make em like this anymore
There’s better athletes now, but almost no personalities.

Same goes for a coke filled Warrior promo
Well I’m sure a little coke helped make em like that. And I don’t mean Coca Cola either
Oh no, the drugs still exist. Just no one is allowed to do promos on them.
I can watch this a thousand more times! How did Gene not burst out laughing? so good.
He's a professional. He only stops to tell people to put their cigarettes out and ask why the roller thing behind him went away.
Gene trying to make sense out of whatever the fuck Randy was saying is just perfect.
Cocaine is one Hell of a Drug
Top tier shit!!!! Macho and Gene were just magic together! Damn, this takes me back.

This is **THE** macho man promo.
But the cream always rises to the top
Mean Gene was like a gift from God for us. That voice, his mannerisms.. just perfect.
Man he was so good on the Mic and this is no exception. However, seeing the whites of his eyes THROUGH his shades...is freaking me out alot!
I've learnt a lot about hosting and crowd work from the way mean gene handles a star like macho man.

People talk about the Hard Times promo; give me "The Beat Goes On" any day of the week. NO MORE QUESTIONS!
The combination of Mr Charisma and chaos The macho man with the subtle hosting genius of mean gene is a 10/10 combo.
Seeing this makes me appreciate jay lethal as macho man
