I need to avoid this thread, because I don't wanna watch it until I'm in front of my TV. But I already hope they do more of these. This is what they should have done instead of that idiotic Dolph as The Colonel thing. The Colonel thing was surreal because, not only did I find Japanese fanart of Dolph in that outfit, it became popular with people who had no idea it was wrestling fanart. Then that commercial made the rounds, and reading people talk about how hot the Colonel was. It was really surreal, as it often is whenever I see wrestling stuff outside of its original context, puzzled over by outsiders.

That Sea Creature reveal was the greatest moment in the history of this great sport.

This may be quite possibly the most deliciously cheesy 80s thing I have ever seen.

"The Banker" introducing the Sea Creature is my favorite part of this, given the "business guy managing freaky monster" trope that was so common in 80s and early 90s wrestling.
The whole thing was great, though. The best kind of parody is loving parody, and this has a genuine tone that wouldn't be there if they didn't legitimately love what they're riffing on.

Yeah you can tell that these guys love this.

This may be the most entertaining I've ever found Luke Gallows

This is perfect in every way and I want more. I genuinely marked when I saw Sex Ferguson.

They would be crazy not to make more than 4 episodes of this, that was amazing.

I love that this is basically a live version of their characters in talking shop. WWE needs to stay away I don't want to see them ruin my new favorite show like they did Z Long Island story. Also Chad is basically a composite of the shitty Indy wrestlers from Cincinnati that Karl Anderson watched at shows.

I'm pretty sure Flair was actually him and that was kinda the whole point of the joke. Nice try, but I know what Ric Flair sounds like, and that was not Ric Flair. It was jay lethal
