I'm gonna buy one of those shirts and some KFC so they make more of these and maybe give us the actual Lethal Leap Year. Kayfabe is dead, the Final Deletion was the biggest thing in wrestling last year. Give us some crazy ass poorly produced matches!
EDIT: also a shout out to whoever made those aweomse fake 80s songs during the initial Tex promo and the Surfdudes theme. The lyrics are pretty funny and they sound ripped right from the 80s

If (hopefully when) they do more of these we need someone to play Craig Armstrong Smith the 3rd, Southpaw's general manager. I'm hoping for JBL or Vince himself.

Trying to watch the first episode right now.
This is as funny as a work-related concussion, which I have had. And frankly I'd rather have the concussion.

"And I know for a fact that you sent Bad News Allen to do my eye, but unlike you I CAN AFFORD AN EYE PATCH PAL!" "You think Chad 2 Badd that I don't know that you sent Freddie Blassie with his filed down teeth to take out my other eye?" "Chad 2 Badd, it may be true that my right arm has gone dead because you somehow squandered up the money to send Greg Valentine over to my trailer and put me in an arm bar for two and a half hours." 14 MINUTES LATER

Cena's delivery of "MY GOD MAN, WE'RE GOING TO BE RUINED!" when he finds out about Lethal Leapyear has me in tears.

I will begin watching WWE again if, at the end of Wrestlemania this year, Craig Armstrong Smith III appears on the video screen in a recording of Vince signing away ownership of the WWE to a consortium looking to resurrect Southpaw Regional Wrestling. The Raw after WM is immediately relocated to a small studio somewhere outside Mobile.

My biggest fear is WWE is going to interpret this positive reaction as "See, the fans think that low budget regional wrestling was/is stupid too!!" instead of the "Wow, people actually like it when our characters have wacky and unique personalities"

"See you next time ooooooooooouuuuuuuuuuuuu..." (SRW theme plays)
Lance Catamaran has joined Chet Lemon and Black Snow in the patheon of fake wrestling commentators.

Here's hoping they find another strange video tape in the WWE video library. If those t-shirts go on sale and they outsell the Ellworth shirts, I think it's almost assured they will. And even if KFC is done with sponsoring this, they can use this with other sponsors. In fact, if they get someone to do a Promotional Consideration promo a la Lord Alfred, license to print even more money. I would like a version of the KFC graphic with Ric Flair on a Tshirt.

New dueling chants: "Let's Go Ce-na!" "Cat-A-Mar-An!"

I loved it. It was so fresh and new. I can't wait for more. The Flair advertisements were just spot on.

There was ONLY one thing missing: An honest to god licensed 80s song as the intro.
Besides that I want Lance Catamaran and Black Snow calling Raw.

For some reason, when I was watching this I thought "Hey, since they're doing wacky stuff and lost footage, wouldn't be awesome if they brought back Stevie and the Meanie to finish The Blonde Bytch Project?"
Then I pictured Brock murdering everyone involved and thought "Nah, let's just stick with Southpaw"
