The biggest issue with mic skills on a lot of these guys is that they never get to fucking talk. The Rock didn't start out cutting promos like a GOD when he started, and nobody else has either. You have to do something repeatedly to get better at it. They need to let guys cut promos at every house show and let them cut promos on Main Event, Superstars, and pre-taped shows.

While I can understand that guys may be worried about keeping their jobs, if they really care, they also need to have the guts to stand up and say, "I am/want to be great at promos, let me talk!" I would think folks like HHH and Vince would admire and respect that instead of canning them.

Developmental guys get weekly "Promo Days" where they work on their skills. The problem isnt the lack of CHANCE TO IMPROVE its that they sign guys based on overything BUT promo ability

I could this being the case. However, do we know who's running these promo days or teaching the NXT folks how to cut promos? Not that I want him off my tv anytime soon, but I would think someone like Heyman would be a great person to learn promo skills from.

Of course it also depends on what kind of promo material (scripted or not, etc.) their given to work with. If they get a shitty scripted promo, for a storyline that doesn't make much sense and they have a gimmick that doesn't really reflect even a little who they are, there's only so much they can do with that.
