Thats the only IC run of his that even matters. Its what helped him develop his character & persona and show Vince that he could carry a title
The ones before that are in the Bushes.

my fav. rock is from when he joined the nation until the corporation turned on him (98-99)
While I agree about how dynamic his character is and how well he built the importance of the IC title, everyone should listen to more of these early promos.
Notice how his cadence is a complete riff off of Stone Cold. He would develop his own cadence after this, but let's be real about his character.

He only had one run before that and he got absolutely no mic time and was given the Kofi Kingston smile bullshyt. Company burying but they smartened up in the end.
