The Z Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 I was already sick and tired of this show after the first ten seconds of the trailer for the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig H Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 I liked the first episode. The rest have made me angry that there's three episodes of this and still only two of Ride Along. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Go2Sleep Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 I think I would've like this show a lot 15 years ago. I watch the first episode and there was maybe 2-3 minutes of good content, but it definitely wasn't worth sitting through the other 20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NikoBaltimore Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 The first one dragged but had decent moments. Second episode was a lot better. Haven't seen the third one, but apparently they're doing a 90s theme so I'm sure to feel old seeing this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
offspring515 Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 I've really enjoyed it, but corny humor is kind of in my wheelhouse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bustronaut Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 The Sunny joke in the 3rd episode was legit shocking. I'm guessing it gets edited out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreamBroken Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 I've enjoyed it so far and it's 90s MTV feel. I love the 90s so the latest episode was fun. I laughed at them doing wrestler entrance mannerisms. Christian's Brutus Beefcake impressions was a random little thing that cracked me up.

RIPPA Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 I will say I did like the having Tugboat on the first episode But then the segment went like 3 minutes too long 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevie Ray Von Erich Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 The editing is terrible and neither Edge nor Christian really know how to perform to a camera. They're both almost whispering at times. Compared to actual tv hosts it's really off-putting and comes off amateurish. I gave them three episodes to hook me and the third was, imo, the worst, so I'm done with it. I'm sure y'all will tell me if Bayley's appearance is worth tracking down or not.

Iron Moose Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 Among other things, I don't understand why they went with Sucktitude over Suckitude. That extra t throws off the whole sound of the word. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramsey Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 These guys have fallen into the trap that multi-man radio shows/podcasts fall into. They assume that if they find it hysterical and it makes them laugh that everyone will also get it and think it's just as hysterical. Don't get me wrong, funny people should use their own instincts to a certain extent but you have to let the audience in on the joke. These guys are riffing on shit that they set up in the Attitude era which was nearly 20 years ago so it comes across as nothing but inside gags. That said, as someone who survived the awful humor of the Attitude era, the show is still not funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cristobal Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 I like the show. Not so much because of their over-produced skits, but little stuff like this: When they were doing the "entrances of the 90s" bit, and Beefcake's music hits, Edge is looking around in confusion, while Christian starts doing the hedge trimmer motion. I'm amused because Edge didn't recognize the music, (it's not as recognizable as the others they did,) but once he sees Christian doing the gesture, he gets it, and does it as well. That stuff tickles me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odessasteps Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 Listening to them talk about it on the jericho pod, it sounds like they are having fun and working hard making it. (Havent seen it personally) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevie Ray Von Erich Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 One thing that strikes me about WWE humor recently is how they think that being funny means you have to be a face. Once you get over being funny (see: New Day, Santino) they start booking you as a pseudo-face. Or, potentially even worse, they look back on humorous skits or moments from heels with a face-like THEY JUST LOVED TO HAVE FUN lens. When Austin was being funny with Angle, it was because he was an unhinged, paranoid psycho and Angle was a holier-than-thou dweeb. It made sense in context. When they bring it up in retrospectives, it's always in that FUN~! sort of way. This is all just to say that Edge and Christian were over and funny when they annoying, nerdy, prima donna heels. That same schtick doesn't really work as retired babyfaces. I think both guys are genuinely funny, smart, and charismatic. But the context feels all wrong for the show; too much of a blend of schtick in the wrong context and not enough genuine moments for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trocar Slush Weasel Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 I agree that it is very hit or miss. But one big hit for me was them splicing themselves into the Sting/Vader Table for 3 to ask them questions about Beach Blast. Btw, what was the joke about Sunny? I forgot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
