I want to see the owner/promoter of SRW, he probably is a parody of Verne and Fritz Von Erich who puts himself on top despite being ancient. Gerald Brisco would be awesome in that role

Obviously a fake Ric Flair... he sounds about 30 years older then he did in 1987

Every Southern Champ lives in a trailer, no matter what he's pulling in. That's the rule. Also, if/when they do more of these, they gotta get AJ wrapped into this. I wanna see him doing a Kerry Von Erich take. In fact, getting, like, 15 of the wrestlers to be a family of Von Erich style wrestlers led by him would be amazing. A Von Erich family gimmick could get pretty macabre pretty quick. I just imagine Lance Catamaran having black armbands all down his arm. Also, I remember that when Kerry got busted for drugs when coming back from his honeymoon in Mexico they tried covering by accusing the Fabulous Freebirds of framing him. So they should have the Kerry Von Erich type character get in worse and worse trouble every week, but Lance Catamaran suggests that it was actually a frame up by his arch nemesis. ...Goddamnit,that's brilliant.

Man, that's really dark, but the mental image of Lance sitting there like that in his terrible suit with several arm bands and gravely intoning the family's latest misfortune is a damn funny one. Since they still have connection with Kevin, I have a feeling they wouldn't want to go there. But man...I really want to see it now.

The more I think about it and rewatch this stuff, it reminds me of why I loved the JBL and Cole Show when it was on. It got people together, capitalised on what made them work or improved on what could make them work and then let them loose.
Because, honestly, that's all we've wanted from pro wrestling. To feel like they are as invested as much as they want us to be invested in it.
Like, for all the goofiness and parody that the show provided, and with most of the card unknown, I would watch Lethal Leap Year over WrestleMania in a heartbeat. Because damnit, that show was going to be the biggest thing in proooooooffessional wrestling.

Holy shit, they actually did that in World Class? This was the same promotion that gave a schlub the Von Erich mantle & somehow made him the bad guy when it blew up in Fritz's face.

Side note: is that pretty much Lana's real voice?

Crack theory: when SRW went under after the Lethal Leap Year debacle, Lance Catamaran returned to Utica New York trying to get his job back. In the meantime, he wrote to the newspaper seeking out his father. It was published the same day a surprising young newcomer to the boxing scene defeated local champ Super Macho Man and was on his way to challenge Mike Tyson.

I just wanna say kudos to WWE for this for this very reason....
This is the MOST fun I've seen people have on this board in a looooong time.
Beefs have been set aside....anger has been locked away.....it's a beautiful damn thing.
AND...bonus points for this; The MS Paints at the end of the year are gonna be goddamn amazing.

Shame they couldn't get someone involved to play general manager Dr. Craig Armstrong Smith The Third. Perfect cameo from someone like Mick.

Season 2 (and there better be a season 2) needs....
-The previously discussed AJ Styles/ever growing Von Erich style stable
-An in character appearance from Michael Hayes
-Actual wrestling (come on...you wanna tell me you don't actually wanna see Sea Creature/Big Bartholemew?)...not a whole lot, but just enough
-More Tex. A lot more Tex.
-The cheesiest possible version of The Demon that Finn can pull off, complete with cheap as shit 80's 'special effects'
Man, the E really stumbled onto a potential gold mine here.....
