    I like how Iain almost knows a good amount about wrestling. Like he called out some spots right, but he definitely relied on assuming the crowd doesn't know about wrestling to make it sound like he knows more than he does. Makes it believable for those who aren't major wrestling fans, and funny for those who aren't. I appreciate it.

    2 thoughts. I so wish American comedy was as silly as British humor. They do not take themselves seriously at all, and that's awesome. Second the pros did a fantastic job making those comedians look good. And the comedians were impressive as well. Go Daddy Rosie! That Greg Davies bit was hilarious. But I was most impressed by Ed Gamble's partner. That dude really stepped up to work with 3 different comedians.

      I'm not 100% sure but Max is also a wrestler, I would be amazed if he was pulling out a tornado ddt's and taking powerbombs as a comedian. But Ed's partner was sick I was amazed at how legit of a match they pulled out with 2 comedians

      Same. I let it play through twice in the (my) background and didnt follow well. I finally stopped what I was doing when I heard Phil and Alex participating and decided to restart it. I’d love if they’d had a mic above the ring, but was able to follow and fully enjoy whatever the hell it was that I just watched 😀

  • @lnfreeman
    @lnfreeman 3 місяці тому +3

    I've seen photos from previous years and am thrilled to see footage. I'm a wrestling novice but love comedians doing unexpected things. I think a few things would improve future broadcasts:
    1. Mic the ring or have commentators repeat those lines
    2. Stack the panel with one real wrestling commenter, one wrestling-savvy comedian like Iain, and no more than one comedian who adds nothing but jokes or chaché - I cant enjoy the wrestling if i can't follow it and I can't enjoy the jokes that make this harder to do.
    3. Mic the audience a bit - i bet the live experience was hype, but listening to faint music or silence while wrestlers postured and vaunted got a little awkward.
    4. All non-combattant participants need to affirm the same reality of the wrestling - if someone's persona is authentically a badass or gorgeous or sadistic, don't undercut that with joke. It removes the lampshades the absurdity of The Wrestling which is the whole fun of it.
    5. Video director needs more lag or a script of every fight - it was a shame how many major moves/beats were completely out of frame.
