Scripted promos have been a hot topic in the wrestling world lately. Many people feel that scripted promos are preventing stars from getting over and Steve Austin agrees. Austin recently reiterated this point while speaking to Taz on his Bodyslams & Beyond show. You can listen to the full episode here and read a quote below.
“It’s a different PC world that those guys are operating in, so I feel for those guys. And I love WWE, I’m still part of the company, but it’s just tough these days on these kids. I don’t like to be the bitter veteran that complains about the system, but, I don’t believe that promos should be ‘scripted’. A couple of bullet points, yes, to point a cat in the right direction, but you’ve got to be out there and be able to feel at home and believe with conviction and your heart and your soul with everything that you’re saying and if you’re just trying to be an orator or someone who delivers a speech, that’s not effective in my opinion. And to me, to draw money, you’ve got to be able to reach people’s heartstrings and reach some kind of guttural response or just anything that resonates with them.”
