It feels wrong that Ryback isn't involved in this. I would have thought he would have fit like a glove.

I can't wait for them to announce Gunner. 

F****** RYKER!

[This Player Hating Mothman]

The best thing this announcement did is force this onto more peoples' radar like some kind of mental ransomware

Good luck to EC3. I was at an indy show in 2016 and of all the people there, many of which were 1980s/90s long term WWF guys, he was one of the most miserable. Even in the locker room when he was eating a salad and Ricky Morton joked about both guys eating habits, EC3 couldn't bothered to acknowledge another person, I.E. Legend Ricky Morton. When you can't respect the legends, you won't respect the fans. This project won't go very far and to EC3, I hope it doesn't.

[Chiral]

I'm incredibly intrigued but probably not for the reasons they're hoping for.

They stuff with moose at BFG 2020 was fine. This is just bad. Who watch these shows and said this needs to be on tv. Is Joe Rogan behind this?

I think he was fine in ROH. I would have loved to see him face someone like Dalton Castle. Both guys gimmicks could really play off each other. This worked shoot basement monologue nonsense. Can’t wait to see Rockstar Stud fighting Blake while some narration says “THEY MADE HIM PEE HIS PANTS.”

I'm watching more of this.

I just keep waiting for them to shout "HIS NAME IS ROBERT PAULSON!"

Like its a group of guys that watched Fight Club and didnt really get it.

so like 90% of people that say Fight Club is their favorite movie?

[Chiral]

Actually I've never watched any of his Narrative stuff so let's watch a clip or two.

Me watching the bar one with Braun crying:
-What the f*** is this?
-This was the guy that did CHICKS...AND AMERICA not to say he has to be that forever but this really feels like some bizarre fever dream
-This feels like this: www.youtube.com/watch?v=BNgQJ0J0WUo
-I feel like my YT recommended feed is going to be obliterated by watching these
-"Face it, your creator only had one son. His name was Roman name was Roman name was Roman name was Roman..."

OK I'M STARTING THIS MONSTER ONE AND WTF IS THIS SERIOUSLY? Like five straight minutes of bizarre text


-a fight can be ended by one cannot stand
-is bray gonna do a stint with these fellas
-seriously what network is this gonna be on

HOW IS THIS NOT PARODY?! HOLY SHIT!

Appreciate you taking one for the team by watching this, but dang. Wow. Yeah, I'm not watching this unless it gets next level rave reviews.

[Chiral]

7 minutes in. I feel like I've been watching for 20 minutes. 2point0 are here. I have not followed what EC3 is saying, he's talking about like following your dream and not star ratings or something.

This is 90 minutes so I'm gonna have to watch this in chunks for my sanity's sake.


"I'M JAKE LOGAN"
*immediately misses a dive and gets his ass kicked to heavy metal guitar riffs*

2point0, the voices of reason:
"I do not know what I just saw"
"There's no referee."
"There's no bell."
"Knokcout it's gotta be knockout."
"There are rules but there are no rules."
"There are RULES but no RULES."
"Rules, but no rules."

WAIT ARE THEY THE FREAKING STATLTER AND WALDORF OF THIS LMAO


the narrator is like a nature documentary narrator but for wrestling.

I'm picturing a non-wrestling fan stumbling upon this.

Also imagining a world where this becomes the most popular format for wrestling, we'll all have egg on our faces when CYN becomes the biggest wrestling company in the world

The matches with metal over them are better than the ones with "THE NARRATOR" saying weird shit over them like "RESOURCES, ARE AN ADVANTAGE. TEMPERS BECOME AMPLIFIED WHEN A CAGED ANIMAL BECOMES FREE."

ONE CAN NOT STAND!

which is different than Knock out somehow...

[Natural Born Farmer]

I hope EC3 bought property or something, because I don't think this is going to fund his retirement.

Here is the one with Cardona driving his Chevy Caprice wagon in ghostbusters getup lol

[chazraps]

You ever see something so pretentiously stupid you feel like you need to go for a walk around the block before you continue with your day?

[Lizuka #BLM]

Reading people talk about this I have no earthly idea what it actually is but no part of me wants to take the gamble on actually seeing it for myself.

[J. Hova]

Of all of the promotions being launched/relaunched lately, this is certainly the most recent.

I watched about 8 minutes, I feel like someone owes me money.

[Stone Coke Miami Watson 🥃]

How long until Brian Zane adds this to his defunct promotions collection?

[Aceorton]

I feel like I owe WWE Creative an apology for all the rotten things I've said about them.

[Chiral]

Time to start another chunk, I'm exhausted from work so I'm watching this like


-"What started as a wrestling match, has become a fight" NARRATOR ALL THESE MATCHES ARE FIGHTS THERE ARE NO RULES THERE'S NO GOVERNING BODY THE RULE GRAPHIC THING ONLY CALLED THEM FIGHTS

-Man I can barely hear the narrator sometimes, I gotta turn closed captions on. CC: "With no authority, Blake attempts to tie up Skyler, a physical metaphor to a career with [INAUDIBLE]." GREAT COOL




-The narration feels like a bot, like AI generated wrestling commentary. Here I ran some text through a bot just for fun:

These fighters are wrestling an impeccable match. The pain they inflict on each other knows no end. I can’t wait to see the match up. This will be a bit more technical and of course one sided but I see this going 5 rounds.

#17 Oleksandr Usyk vs. Murat Gassiev. This fight is being made after the Tito Ortiz vs Chael Sonnen fight where the UFC star turned boxer against the Olympian. Ortiz was the champion and lost by majority decision to Sonnen. I have Gassiev winning by KO and a rousing round of applause by the MMA audience.

#18 Zabit Magomedsharipov vs. Brandon Davis. Davis is a man who is a new star in the division with the performance he had at Metamoris 1 last year where he defeated former UFC fighter Rani Yahya and a handful of others. I see Magomedsharipov winning by submission and following up with another performance like that at the Abu Dhabi show.

-Did Blake just get his eye gouged out with the Halftime Heat forklift camera on him?

-Just have 2point0 commenting the whole thing they're the only thing that feels human in this, they're the only ones not filmed in grayscale

-Now a dude is shouting on the streets with a megaphone (sorry I don't know a lot of these guys). "YOU'RE A COMPLEX SOCIETY THAT HAVE MET THEIR DEMISE BY THE IDEAL OF ONE MAN, ONE SINGLE MAN. HOW SAD HOW PATHETIC. IS THAT WHAT YOU WANT? WHEN YOU STAND BEFORE HIM, AND WHEN YOU STAND IN THE PRESENCE OF A MAN LIKE EC3, HOW DOES THAT MAKE YOU FEEL? I WILL SAY THAT I AM NO SINNER." There is some REALLY weird Vince = god of wrestling religion and EC3 - god of something else in wrestling" stuff running through this. IMAGINE DRIVING PAST THIS

-I hate to say it, but this needs the awful promo nameplates WWE uses because I have no idea who most of these people are

-now it's a vaudevillains skit

-I'm looking at the website and even the bios are weird


-"Who, or what, is the reality behind Gentleman Jervis's mask?" as he slow motion wrestles Bear guy to piano music

-"You could wear a mask to appease the masses, but you're only hiding yourself. You could be free. You could control the narrative."

-"Jervis learned that the pain isn't the suffering of your body. It's a suffering of your soul." Cool line from an angsty 8th grader diary

-suddenly nakamura "ROCKSTAR" big red text is over the screen

-OK here's crying braun again

-Tucker should be the bartender. If I was writing this, Tucker would be the bartender

-"The women, they infatuated you." *insert Braun hashtags about Raquel here

-"This NARRATIVE is SWEET!!!!" says a dude who looks like Kaos from XPW

-this other dude at bar scene talking about how sad he is scene description:


-"IS THIS WHAT MAN HAS BECOME?"





-"To Matt Taven, purple represents a fallen father figure."

-Matt Taven kills a guy as the narrator does poetry about the color purple

-I can really only handle a bit of this at a time lol

[chazraps]

Again, I love EC3 and don't want to be perceived as mean-spirited dunking on him or anything, but he's probably the one person benefitting the absolute most by Cody and Austin each massively dominating both sides of the wrestling newscycle right now because otherwise the flaws of this project would be getting raked over the coals by everyone who encountered it.

[Cyno]

This is incredible in all the worst/best ways.

If this is supposed to be a serious product, it is f***ing terrible. If it's supposed to be a parody, it's f***ing brilliant.
