Fink: The following thread is scheduled for ONE PAGE!

It's the 25th anniversary of WrestleMania. What better way to remind us why the WWE is where they are than to have the greatest ring announcer of all time, Howard Finkle, announce the entire event?

Discuss this and The Fink in general. :y:

[Hornicane]

God, this needs to happen. :y:

[Krimzon7]

agreed.

[Volare]

I've wanted him to announce for Wrestlemania again for a looooooong time now.

[Afterlife]

Disagreed. :n:

[Juan]

Disagreed. :n:

WHAT?!? :eek:

You are some kind of crazy.

[Afterlife]

WHAT?!? :eek:

You are some kind of crazy.

Haven't you heard? I'm totally insane!

Also, I just never cared for his voice.

[Juan]

I think you're the only person ever in the world that doesn't like the Fink's voice. Congratulations :y:

[abec]

Howard Finkle is like the Kane of ring announcers.

[CSL]

Yeah, I mention Fink just about every time I see Garcia or Chimmel (Roberts is okay, not Fink though) It has to be a personal decision to not be on TV anymore because he is head and shoulders above just about every ring announcer in the biz, especially the ones under contract to Vince atm

[Afterlife]

I think you're the only person ever in the world that doesn't like the Fink. Congratulations :y:

I never said that. The man has a sense of humor, good timing, and is dedicated to his company. I respect that x9. I just don't like his voice.

[Juan]

That's what I meant.

[Afterlife]

Well, that's not what you said. :p

[Juan]

Fixed

[Afterlife]

Yeah, but that's clearly false.

[Juan]

I disagree

[Afterlife]

That is also false. You're just spewing fabrications now.

[Juan]

You're wrong.

[jerichoholicninja]

I gotta agree with AfterLife. Not a huge fan of the Fink's voice, but he is soooo much better than everyone they have now.

[Jeritron]

Are we seeing a wave of "I don't care for Finkle" posts?

[thedamndest]

Wrestlemania X was awesome when Fink joined the Hair Club for Men.

[GD]

It has to be either Fink or Roberts (current)...nobody else.

[Afterlife]

JJ is the shit. He can announce anything he wants.

[Triple Naitch]

Anybody but Lillian. Fink would be my first choice. Justin Roberts is the next best thing.

[Fabien Barthez]

Mike McGurik

[Mooияakeя™]

I agree.

Great voice but fucked up a bit too often. Here's an example of him announcing Bret "Hitman" Clarke:

<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/X7UCpOYBQ-E&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/X7UCpOYBQ-E&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>

Maybe it was just more obvious because he wasn't a permanent announcer, though. He's great overall, but I'd rather take Fink for wrestling.

[Mooияakeя™]

Was thinking more for a special match. Like the Jericho one if he wrastles some celeb or some shit.

[Xero]

Fuck that, if Fink's announcing I don't want that douche doing anything.

[thedamndest]

I wish they had a contest where Fink would ride around with you and announce your day for you.

[Disturbed316]

Buffer used to really hype up those Nitro main events, but he is no Fink.

[GD]

No why would you want Chris Jericho wrestle some shit :wtf:

SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooooooOOOOOOOOOO
HORNYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Xero]

I think he meant Hogan.

[Mooияakeя™]

I think he meant Hogan.

Xero speaks the truth. He speaks the fucking truth. Oh god I'm so emotional right now. Xero is kifflom.

[Halbowsky]

I used to get chills whenever Fink would announce: "The winner of the match...and...NEWWWWWWWWWWWWWW...World Wrestling Federation Champion..."

He NEEDS to announce at WrestleMania 25

I still get chills listening to Fink announcing the new champion.

Watching SmackDown!, I pretty much marked out for Howard Finkel being the announcer of The Dirt Sheet, although it sounded like he was almost trying to not sound like The Fink.

Howard Finkel announcing WrestleMania and the Royal Rumble are two things that I really want to see. Justin Roberts is a good ring announcer, and Tony Chimel is more than passable, but Lilian Garcia is pretty horrible. Replace her with The Fink, and things are perfect. I'd say it's his choice not to announce, though.

Watching the first edition of SmackDown!, there was some angle where Tony Chimel was getting to announce, and someone told Fink to go out there and fight for the spot (it may have been Chris Jericho). Fink then went out there, pushed Chimel, took the mic, and I'm sure I saw him mouth calling Chimel a fag. :lol:

There are some great Fink moments in professional wrestling. That man should probably go into the Hall of Fame this year, actually.

Video is a little choppy, but it's still awesome.

[Disturbed316]

ROFL at Howards running

[Xero]

ROFL at Fink/Chimel, especially coming out to Warrior's music. I do not remember that.

[GD]

She stole the damn torch from him. :(

[Volare]

I love how the crowd was booing the Divas a bit when they all went after Fink.

[Dorkchop]

As awesome as Fink is, I think they were booing because Lillian wasn't the one being stripped.

[Volare]

Dammit I believe in what I said! You can't prove me wrong DC!! AHHH!
