sek69 Posted June 13, 2018 Report Share Posted June 13, 2018 The episode of Quantum Leap where Sam jumped into a wrestler from the 50s where it was either implied or stated that title matches were shoots. Also had Terry Funk guest starring too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victator Posted June 13, 2018 Report Share Posted June 13, 2018 Not sure if Wendy's should be a positive example when we talk about non-cringeworthy social media engagement. Â I mean, corporate profiles behaving like real people and cracking jokes (Wendy's and IHOB's debate about burgers comes to mind) is somewhat disturbing. Netflix does the same, and the Brazilian branch has this ultra-woke approach to twitter that sometimes is ultra embarassing. They are really smug for unpaid interns. Â Â Â Random Question: what is the best "wrestling themed" episode of a TV show? Â The Its Always Sunny episode with Piper pops into my head right off the bat. Obviously Vader on Boy meets world is classic. Â I saw that Always Sunny episode three or four times before I realized that the guy Da Maniac is wrestling at the beginning is Don Frye. Â Yep its the Sunny episode. Or the Family Matters where Carl and Urkel fight the Bushwhackers, who start shooting when they find out Carl is a cop.

NintendoLogic Posted June 13, 2018 Report Share Posted June 13, 2018 I like the episode of Ren & Stimpy where Mad Dog Hoek and Killer Kadoogan wrestle the Lout Brothers. Stimpy cuts a money promo at the end of the episode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SomethingSavage Posted June 14, 2018 Report Share Posted June 14, 2018 The first Piper episode of It's Always Sunny was a blast, but I always got a kick out of the Futurama episode where Bender joined the Ultimate Robot Fighting League. Â Bender adopting a Gorgeous George gimmick and going by "Gender Bender" was great, but The Foreigner was just the fucking best. Â "I'm not from here! I have my own customs! Look at my craaaaaazy passport!" Â *nuclear heat ensues* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhilTLL Posted June 14, 2018 Report Share Posted June 14, 2018 Also from the animation division, King of the Hill S01E22 "Bobby Slam". Bobby tries out for wrestling under the mistaken belief it will be like what he sees on television. When he and best friend Connie must face off for the last spot on the team (Khan: "Take old playmate down hard and fast"), they avoid any hurt feelings by having a worked match with chair shots, airplane spins, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laz Posted June 14, 2018 Report Share Posted June 14, 2018 Always Sunny, Ren & Stimpy, Futurama...all great choices. None of them touch South Park's exploration of redneck theatre. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cap Posted June 14, 2018 Report Share Posted June 14, 2018 The south park episode when the kids start their own promotion and run it like its the theater and are wildly successful is pretty great too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

William Bologna Posted June 14, 2018 Report Share Posted June 14, 2018 There was a Three Stooges where Curly had to replace a wrestler who looked like Action Bronson. I don't know if it was good, but it was something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
