As The Saying Goes: The Best Catchphrases In Pro Wrestling History

Wrestling has produced some really talented wrestlers, both in the ring and on the microphone. The best wrestlers in WWE history were usually the ones with the most memorable quotes on the mic. Some wrestlers were noted for their catchphrases in their commercials, while others were better known for their skills on the mic than they were for their skills in the ring. Numerous factors entice people to become pro wrestling enthusiasts. Athleticism, narratives, and characters are all present.

However, there are other ones to be aware of. Wrestling catchphrases are unique in that they end up immersing the audience and creating a truly interactive experience. By making their voices known loud and clear, fans know when to take their cue and join in the show. With this in mind, we’ve compiled a list of what we consider to be the best wrestling quotes of all time. Let us know if you agree or feel we have left any out.

And that’s the bottom-line ’cause Stone Cold said so!” by Stone Cold Steve Austin – If there was one catch that perfectly suited a wrestler, it was ‘Stone Cold’ Steve Austin’s classic promo-closer. There isn’t a catchphrase that gets people more enthusiastic than this one, and fans adore yelling it.

To be the man, you got to beat the man!” by Ric Flair – The greatest heel in WCW history and possibly the best all-around wrestler ever. He was a great heel, a fantastic face, tremendously talented in the ring, and a tremendous performer on the mic.

What you gonna do when Hulkamania runs wild on you?” by Hulk Hogan – Hulk Hogan was the guy that got me and millions of others hooked on wrestling, and many believe he is responsible for making wrestling what it is today.

Suck it!” by DX – They’re arguably the most significant faction in professional wrestling history, and when you’re that good, you need a catchphrase to match. That’s precisely what D-Generation X had with their “Suck It!” catchphrase, which is undoubtedly one of the most well-remembered in WWE history.

The best there is, the best there was and the best there ever will be.” by Bret Hart – Hart was a highly competent technical wrestler in the WWE who exuded charisma and enthusiasm for his craft. In addition, Hart was unquestionably one of the greatest actors of all time.

Rest in Peace!” by The Undertaker – The Undertaker very seldom said much. Yet, his catchphrase is one of the most iconic on this list.

Wrestlers used to be known for the remarks that came out of their mouths, presumably because it made the audience connect with them. As a result, the WWE Hall of Fame is littered with legends who coined catchphrases that have endured the test of time and are still uttered by fans today.
