I take "cheap heat" as when someone drops an f-bomb just for shock value, or whatever. Thats how Shawn Michaels refers to it and he's one of the best promo guys ever
It's more specifically the first point. The whole "...has come back..." is cheap. As are the sing-along catchphrases I guess.

Plenty of people have cut incredible promos without resorting to those tactics. Dunno, I always took issue with The Rock's "by the numbers" promos. Never really "did it" for me.
