Miro is the best talker in the game. Every time he speaks, he has three objectives: Give glory to God, give praise to his wife, and give notice to his upcoming opponent that his time on this plane of existence is coming to a short, brutal end. In an industry where time on the mic is simultaneously a precious commodity and a squandered resource, Miro wastes none of it, and there is nothing in the game quite like the way he presents himself at the moment.
While it hasn’t had a ton of build, his upcoming match against Eddie Kingston is, in many ways, a battle between two kinds of promo master, Kingston’s lengthier sermons on his belief in wrestling against Miro’s blunt exaltations to a God who believes in him. Rather than preview their match or dig into their feud, I want to explore what makes Miro such a special promo for this moment in professional wrestling.
Miro's Promos
Homage to a vengeful god. Tribute to a hot wife.
Pros
- Excellent lighting.
- Love to see a guy so completely in love with his wife.
- Brings a refreshingly honest perspective to Christian theology.
- Thankful for his power, which most wrestlers take for granted.
- Crucifix is one of the coldest accessories in the game, up there with the TNT Championship.
- Sounds like he’s constantly threatening a member of Dom Toretto’s family in an attempt to avenge some perceived slight from 1983.
Cons
- Oh, you thought this would be an article with cons? TENS ACROSS THE BOARD, BABY.
