I have to say Punk is good on the mic,but better than Rock?Funny joke.
Rock could easily Kill Punk If he really want to.

Who are all these people who think being serious on the mic makes you a better mic worker? Hilarious stuff, what else can you expect from a bunch of marks though?

Punk's promos stand up on their own. No reaction required. You know that wrestling promos exist beyond two guys arguing in the ring at the same time, right?

It doesn't matter who it is either, it isn't just Punk. It's all babyfaces (think of almost any Stone Cold promo. Extremely one-sided to make him look better).

Except The Rock, I guess.

Are you a total, complete moron, or are you just acting like one for effect?

Neither. But you ARE a mark.

Or maybe people just prefer Punk to the rock? I prefer Punk's promos as I prefer serious ones. But the Rock has been good the last few weeks and I am digging this feud. Some people need to calm down and just enjoy the feud instead of looking for who did better. Both men are great.

Come feel my pulse, princess. Take my temperature too, if you'd like.

Rock and Punk are two completely different animals on the mic. You can't compare them; it's apples and oranges. Rock cuts promos with a lot of energy, and Punk cuts promos in a measured and thoughtful fashion. Punk can't do what Rock can do and Rock can't what Punk can do, at least can't do it as well. It all comes down to what kind of promo you prefer. You can't compare the two and if you do you're dumb. Now, you can compare John Cena to the Rock since they have similar promo styles. You can compare Punk to someone like Raven for the same reasons.

Punk is flat out better than Rock on the mic, there's no way around it, it just is.

The comedy.

There's no one better than The Rock, that's impossible because no one in the history of the business had the combination of his charisma, delivery, cleverness and presence to captivate every audience. He's in a world of his own, playing a completely different game than anybody else. Punk is not top 10, smooth delivery, nothing more than that. Why people think Rock consistently put Punk over in his promos? To sell him as a credible opponent against him, Rock is basically doing in 3 weeks what WWE couldn't do in 430 days. Everything Rock said to Punk so far was a soft version of the original point, all to protect Punk's image before the PPV because with his status and crowd control it can be a character killer to any performer today. That's how you promote and create interest, by building up your competition so when you overcome it, it would mean something in the eyes of the viewers. Rock's string of money promos leading to the Rumble did more than just selling the PPV. It sold Punk and brought back meaning to the title.
