Well, it's coming around to that time again when everyone's favourite shindy promotion's tape library escapes once again and reveals its unique blend of 80s(?) kitsch and jingoism to a kinder, gentler, more muted-toned world.
So, as we anticipate a third helping of Utica ABC affiliate rejects, lovelorn and drunken rejects and rejects of nepotism, I ask the good people of FAN - what kind of semi-rotten madness would you like to see on any new installments? When should the new series be set? What nefarious plans are in place thanks to Mr. McElroy? Is Pelvis Wesley alive? What fresh, new tag team will be coming soon if they can dodge the copyright lawyers? And will we see more small, misshapen men?

Eesh. Im not sure I want Southpaw to come back.
Diminishing returns was definitely in effect in season 2

First season was great and came across very naturally for being satire...
Second season had its moments (SUSAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN!!!), but it wasn't as good as the first season....it seemed like they were trying too hard.
Let it rest WWE, and thanks for the memories

Yeah, I'm willing to put this last part under the Second-Part Trilogy Syndrome and try again. But dammit, bring back Rusev this time!

I don't really have any desire to see it come back, honestly. If anything, I don't think it should have gone beyond the 1st season.
The 2nd season tried way too hard to get way too many people involved and there was like pretty much no new memorable characters whatsoever because of it. Also, the attempts to bring it in to the main show were so embarrassing that they were legitimately hard to watch.

I have the opposite reaction most have. Season 2 was not good, so there's really no downside to doing more. You can't ruin a good thing, because the second one would have arguably did that already. If it'll be good and they learned from their mistakes, then it'd be redemption.

Unless they actually try to do a Southpaw show in a mocked up Full Sail or something, I don’t think we need a third season of SRW, though I would certainly watch them regardless.

To paraphrase Kevin Smith's great quote about being asked to pitch a Beetlejuice sequel: "Didn't we say everything that needed to be said in the first Southpaw?"

Maybe they could do an ersatz GLOW rival thing in the vein of Southpaw featuring the women superstars.

It needs to be building towards a show that kusybso happens to have taken place the same day as the original WrestleMania.

More Debbie Desperado. SRW Champion should be Adam Dung. With just the word "Dung" written on a piece of card stuck to the belt. Braun as a mild-mannered etymologist called Walter Wingard, who transforms into a raging beast whenever he sees a ladybird. Kassius Ohno as the Taco Emperor. Who runs his own Taco franchise and is hellbent on selling enough Tacos to buy SRW. Roman as an overused babyface who no one likes and can't understand why he is being booed, but the announcing team put him over anyway.

Daniel Bryan's dueling USA/France characters were pretty fun too, but Nattie as Debbie Desperado was a one note joke that took too long to get to, Miz as Adam Dueng was completely redundant with John Johnson already there, and Dolph Ziggler as the rockstar was about as low effort as you could get for Southpaw.

Didn't Jericho trash the second season in an interview?
