WWE TV Megathread

I love that they are basically doing a soap opera love triangle story with Rhea, Iyo, and Askua as the jealous ex.

Props to the guy sitting behind the commentary team with a Sid Vicious shirt. Who said the English didn't have good taste.

I would take a Herb Abrams/Mark Madden commentary team over having to listen to Booker T's nonsense. He is unbearable.

More proof that just because someone has good mic skills, doesnt mean they're a good commentator (see also Randy Savage, Mick Foley, and Nick Bockwinkle).

To be fair, Mick Foley was yelled in his earpiece constantly by Vince, and he eventually quit over it.

Hard to be a good commentator when a mentally unhinged sex trafficking fecal fetishist is hurling abuse at you for two hours straight while you're on the air, having to speak, concentrate on the match, and take in a million other things all at once.

Kelly Osbourne is not happy with what Becky Lynch said on RAW:

I dont really see the problem here, she didnt say anything negative about Ozzy, just Birmingham.

In Kelly’s defense, her Father just died so there is a valid argument to be made that the “too soon” rule applies to Becky’s promo.

On the other hand, Kelly Osbourne is not exactly blessed in the self-awareness (or general intelligence) departments. My personal favourite highlight from her was after Trump got elected the first time, and in a show of solidarity with Latino people she righteously asked on The View: “If you kick the Latino people out of the country, who is going to clean your toilet, Donald Trump?”

Does Booker T really have good mic skills? Other than his catchphrases, I mainly remember him for the worst attempt at a British accent in history as King Booker.

I don't think his British accent was meant to be good or accurate though.

Kind of like Broken Matt and whatever the fuck accent that was supposed to be.

He was able to get "Can You Dig That,,,SUCKA!" over as a huge catchphrase at least.

Booker T might not have been a good promo in the classic sense of the word, but he connected with fans. He had charisma. He had personality, and in the immortal words of Jules Winfield…personality goes a long way.

There's always a place in wrestling (IMO at least) for the over the top David Crockett LOOK AT HEEM TONY style color commentator marking out like someone at home would. I get how he's not going to be everyone's cup of tea but he cracks me up.

He reminds me a bit of Dusty on commentary

I'll take "Going to the Pay Winduh" and "He hit'em with a commode lid!' over "Shucky Ducky Quack Quack" and "Awwwww Yeah Mannnn!!" (repeated 75 times per show) any day of the week.

Clash in Paris time.

Bronson Reed rockin the Pimp Fur Coat. Nice. Reed should probably go over here, but he probably won’t. I just hope Roman gives him a lot, and it’s a good match.
