Hey, look! It’s the tiredly predictable “I’m obviously so much hipper than he is” mocking of the backlash, right on cue.

Hope it was good for you!

Juan Valdez. His mule would kick the hell out of both of them.

I am surprised it took this long for the thread to degenerate into slash.

I don’t really care about the main event. I bought my ticket for the undercard match between the “WOW! THAT’S A LOW PRICE!” guy and the Kool-Aid man. I hope the Kool-Aid man breaks that dude like he broke my rec room wall. _Oh, yeahhh!_

I believe we may have a winner here.

Flo vs. Erin Esurance. Erin would clean her clock, but it would be fun to watch in so many ways. Far more fun than the match in the OP (at least for me.)

You don’t know how many times (as an adult mind you) that I’ve thought how cool it would be if the Kool Aid guy would actually show up like that (though obviously NOT at MY house).
