Yeah I dont know what people were smoking to think that was a great promo. After watching it, I thought it was terrible.
As some other people have mentioned, the main problem is that he took 3 times as long as it would take a good promo guy to say the exact same thing.
In terms of putting people over, he did none of that. He buried Orton, buried the Orton-Taker match at Mania, burried Smackdown, buried JBL, and buried Cena.
The only person he kinda put over was Taker by saying Taker would kill Orton.
Aside from that it was a typical deal from HHH where he makes 95% of the roster look irrelevant so he can try to convince himself that he's the best in the business.
The funniest part was when he put down JBL calling himself a "God". The funny thing was that when JBL calls himself a "God" the joke is we all know he's not, but by saying it he comes off better as a heel. The difference with Hunter is that he actually believes he's the best, which is a joke. There are better promo guys than him, there are better workers, there are guys who sell more tickets, there are guys who are more over, and there are guys who have a better combination of all those things.
Dont get me wrong, I think Hunter is a good talent, but listening to him yammer on for 20+ minutes about how he's the best at the expense of the rest of the company isn't my idea of doing a good promo.
