If I recall correctly, aside from the special announcement about him debuting, which led into the swerve, his first week he entered directly with his music.
Then, either the next week or so, they added the "LADIES AND GENTLEMEN!" about him being the only living Funkasaurus in captivity, and so forth.
Last week or the week before, suddenly the Funkadactyls get their own introductory spiel as well.
Is this getting a little... much? I feel like just starting the music would get people pumped faster than dragging out the intro like this does. Because for the most part the crowd doesn't really pop until Funky's Honor Roll anyway.

The new intros for Cameron and Naomi are definitely a bit too much.

He's working it up so he can compete with Taker's by Wrestlemania time. Brodus Clay vs. Undertaker, 20-1.

I think Brodus' basic entrance is class.
The horrid spinning disco ball with Funkasaurus spiel is awful (the lasses have HORRID voices), and adding on an intro for them? Eh, boooo!
Still, I stop being a moody swine when Monkey's on a Bowl occurs.

It's the WWE way of making us believe he is some big deal .

I want an entire episode of Raw devoted to his entrance but we see the WWE logo before he ever comes through the curtain

Its to make up for his insanely short matches.

It's the WWE way of making us believe he is some big deal. Seems more like WWE's way of trying to shift some of Clay's heat onto Naomi and Cam. Notice how they're playing more and more into his matches. I wouldn't be surprised if they were in in-ring action themselves within a month, specifically Naomi.

You know how WWE has a tendency to take a good thing and muck it up by overdoing it and running into the ground?
Yep. Here it comes with Brodus and the Dactyls. It's happening now.

it is sort of unusual that the girls introduce him, then he introduces them, before you actually see any of them.

Because when you only do one thing well, it's best to stretch it out. And considering that Clay's only marketable skill is jiggling...

They need to re-record Brodus's terrible introduction for the ladies (seriously, that was the best take he did?) and it needs to be a bit speedier.
But seeing as his entrance is the best thing about him, I'm fine with it.

It's way too much. It needs to just cut to "Somebody Call my Momma" now because the bit before it has always sucked. Why is he "in captivity?" What does that even mean?
