It was also just some terrible positioning. The whole point of MMM is to get heat by presenting something other than wrestling. So then this happened:
"BOO! WE WANT WRESTLING! GET THESE MODELS OUT OF HERE! LET'S GO HIT ROW! TAKE THESE GOOBERS OUT! Wait...what are they doing..."

It made Jeff Hardy's album sound like Mozart in comparison.

Like I said in the Smackdown thread, Swerve should be both AEW champion and Wrestler of the Year for making this group look like anything other than the biggest cornballs alive. To be fair, their rap segment in NXT *WITH* Swerve was also fxxxing terrible.

More of that, and they'll end up on Skid Row.

I don't what's worse, the fact that they THINK they can rap, or someone just assumed they can rap.

I feel like rapping in wrestling needs to be like Caster or like Cena used to be. Just a couple of bars of diss raps.

I am just curious if any of the old white people in the WWE knows that rap was terrible.

Time to bring back Curtis Axel to reform a West Texas Rednecks stable to feud with Hit Row.

I just put in the original Hit Row thread that the reaction online seemed to be that Hit Row missed Swerve.
I've been a fan of Swerve since he was wearing knockoff Spite shirts coming out to Jackson 5, but something that really has stood out since Swerve left WWE is just how... cool he is. Like always a very talented wrestler but guy can just walk out and stand there and all eyes are on him. So I do think this is one act that'll be a bit of a dud without him

So I do think this is one act that'll be a bit of a dud without him Swerve is just on another level right now, so his absence is felt, but it also just kind of shows that he was slumming it with them to begin with, in a way. He was just really blatantly much better than the others, and the act is just not going to seem as big without him around. That being said, it may be to their benefit to not be in his shadow, even if they definitely haven't risen to the occasion yet. Performances like that rap definitely don't fill me with visions of smooth sailing in their future, but they also wouldn't be the first act who completely shit the bed one week and then turned it around over time.

I would simply have them only appear every other week, thus always giving them a reason to rap about being back every time they do appear.
Do that for, like, six or seven months, then have a segment where Lawler shows up out of nowhere, interrupts them and says "Hey, Hit Row...maybe next week, you WILL be here!" and then just collect the money that comes rolling in.

This sounds either so amazingly bad or amazingly cornball that I kind of need to search it out.
