despite having no wrestling yet, this is the best thing wwe has produced since they changed to being PG. it's a bunch of wrestlers in a fake promotion set in the past on lost VHS tapes, john cena gets to be ron burgindy, 'big bart' (Rusev) gets the farm he lives on with his...cousin...lover with sold to an eccentric evil banker, the nature boy makes fun out of how he does anything for a buck, and the impressive pelvis wesley....yeah

hopefully the hardy's go back to the wwe for this because broken matt would be perfect on it just as he is.

 

[Bronx-Man]

Will Big Bart win the farm back?!

 

[JehutyRunner]

"Susan, call me back."

"I miss my father."

"YOU SENT GREG VALENTINE OVER TO MY HOUSE AND PUT ME IN AN ARMBAR FOR TWO AND A HALF HOURS."

This is genuinely the best thing WWE has done in a few years. Hell, I'd say it's one of the best things they've ever done.

I would happily pay £10 a month for the Network for this show and maybe even a one-off live event on the Network featuring these set of characters and having Lance Cattamaran (Cena) and Chet Chetterfield (Fandango) as commentators and Clint Bobski (Jericho) as the backstage reporter.

There is so much potential here. So much of it. I want more. I need more. I don't even basically care it's essentially a KFC advert because one - the overall content is so good and two - the way they fit the ads into it actually is pretty good!

Yes! Give me more!

 

[Piston Hyundai]

it's really weird to see Gallows and Anderson be entertaining in the WWE

 

[Forkball]

Rusev was speaking in five accents at once.

 

[funkystudent]

Gallows hit it out of the park.


And Sea Creature is some Lucha Underground stuff

 

[adj_noun]

I lost it at the Sea Creature.

 

[Intheflorsh]

Tyler Breeze was really good in this, I miss seeing him do stuff.

 

[Gunstarheroes]

Honestly, if they hosted a "reunion special" for Southpaw in the middle of Wrestlemania, i'd probably forgive literally everything else about Wrestlemania this year. I'm dying.

 

[NoRéN]

I'm glad I clicked on this thread. This is great!

 

[Ronabo]

This is the best thing to come from the WWE in years!

 

[Parallax]

rusevs response to the sea creature is killing me. and the ric flair impersonator segments are gold

It's a devil creature!

IT'S A DEVIL! OH LORD!

 

[Babyshams]

Impressive Pelvis Wesley


Seems more like a native advertisement for KFC. but it works so well I don't even care. I'd rather watch 100 of these than any commercial.

 

[NoRéN]

gold

Wooooo!

 

[Cheetos is Pretty Awesome]

I can't believe we're seeing Sex Ferguson on a WWE product.

 

[MC Safety]

I would be intrigued by the prospect of a Southpaw Regional Wrestling T-shirt.

It would also be nice if WWE did an epilogue for Southpaw. Or even produced more lost tapes.

It might be amusing to follow Southpaw up to present day, with more segments parodying the attitude era and wrestling wars.

Regardless, there's some great stuff here: the crippling of Tex Ferguson, the sea creature, and evil Mr. Mackelroy laughing up a storm.

 

[Sir_Crocodile]

Ruse is just the best

OH LAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWD

Have I got good news for you: there's one coming.

 

[excelsiorlef]

They should do another round of episodes only have that the company had shut down for an entire year so as to put on Lethal Leap Year, make some folks look a little different or something but pretend like nothing's changed


The Bad News Allen reference was killer especially the nice touch of calling him Allen instead of Brown

 

[BananasWithGuns]

Just, please make more.

 

[MC Safety]

Have I got good news for you: there's one coming.

Awesome.

Thanks, guys.

(I am intrigued, but not entirely sure I want to wear a wrestling T-shirt.)

 

[pbayne]

WWE made a funny. Jettison all that useless shit on the network and get working on more of this.

Lol at Rusev almost corpsing the entire time.

 

[3JORN]

more please wwe!

 

[DieH@rd]

Ok.... I have to admit, "I miss my father" line slayed me.

 

[LionPride]

Big Bartholomew da goat

Pelvis Wesley for President

She left me. For the gardener.

 

[Into the Light]

Jericho corpsed at "all the southern countries"

 

[Ninhead]

Johnny Curtis is the unsung hero.

 

[righthandmouse]

marks

 

[Guzim]

I thought it was hysterical. Rusev trying not to laugh and doing different accents is a thing of beauty.

 

[sinkfla87]

I'm not even a big wrestling fan but these are great. Bring on more!

 

[Ban Puncher]

Cancel Wrestlemania 33 and replace with Lethal Leap Year.

 

[atomsk]

And Sea Creature is some Lucha Underground stuff

it's pretty much what happened in the Memphis territory in the 70's/80's

 

[Pupperbabysassy]

This is the inspiration for the sea creature.

T-joe Khan the Great!!

 

[mightynine]

Jericho corpsed at "all the southern countries"

As I said in the WrassleGAF thread, the whole thing is Trying not to Corpse: The Minisodes.

And it's a lot of fun to watch. Rusev and Lana going though about 24 different accents in a minute is great.

 

[somedevil]

Is that Tyler Breeze singing the lyrics to the song that introduces Tex Ferguson?

 

[Couleurs]

Ric Flair Paid Impersonator is great "no seriously, this is not Ric Flair"

Actually fuck it, all of this is great

 

[BlueTsunami]

IMMA SCOOP HIM UP, IMMA SLAM HIM DOWN

This is brilliant.

THE DEVIL. OOOOOOOOOOOOH LORD!

THE DEVIL. OOOOOOOOOOOOH LORD!

Rusev's "THE DEVIL?!?! OHHHHHH LAAAAAAWD!" fucking killed me. :lol

 

[Nocturnowl]

Yes, yes, the Farm IS for sale *manic laughter*

Probably the pinnacle of Tyler Breeze's career right there.

 

[ElectricBlanketFire]

"This has been an interesting introduction to this week episode of Southpraw Regional Wrestling."

 

[CreeperBlocks]

WOOO CRISPY

WOOO TANGY

 

[PHOENIXZERO]

I want Rusev to adopt a southern farmer gimmick when he comes back from his injury. I think it's past time they change things up with his character anyway.

I'm pretty sure "Kentucky Fried Wrestling" was a thing at some time but I don't remember exactly what it was.

 

[NoRéN]

I want the Surf Dudes with Attitudes to show up at some point.

 

[BearPawB]

I almost feel bad for the Ascension for how over the Surf Dudes with Attitudes are

 

[LionPride]

WOOO CRISPY

WOOO TANGY

WOO HONEY MUSTARD

 

[Hickbilly Deluxe]

Okay, that was actually pretty good.

 

[NoRéN]

I almost feel bad for the Ascension for how over the Surf Dudes with Attitudes are

I'm probably giving too much credit but I'm hoping that odd pause during the surfing the wave part was an intentional nod to them messing up their original promo.

Surf dudes: "whoooooaaaa!"
*stop whooooaaaaing*
Someone off camera: "we're still rolling."
Surf dudes: "whoooaaaaaa!"
