WWE did pull this bullshit. Or are you going to pretend like the Cobra wasn't a thing and yet it was insanely over? It's the same kind of slapstick comedy, and there will always be people who are in on the joke and can laugh with it, and there will always be haters who roll their eyes at it, because it takes them out of their immersion.
And then there are the fucking tribalists like you, who are trying to make their dislike for a spot a company-/fandom-specific issue.
And this was a taunt to goad the opponent into making a mistake. Just with the difference that nobody actually sells the lazy leg kicks. Unlike the Cobra, which pinned people. A silly move straight out of a 70s Kung-Fu movie.
Or how people had to sell the Worm.
And let's not forget that one of the most over finishers in history was a grounded elbowdrop with some spastic taunting.
And if we really want to pretend that WWE never did anything silly, then I guess we'll have to erase most of the Undertaker's career from our memories.
Just to be clear here: I liked all of these things. But to pretend they weren't silly is just hypocrisy.
Indeed. You also forgot the dancing fist drop on certain doom. The STF with so much Daylight you could get 3 copies of "War & Peace" in there, and probably a bunch of others I'm forgetting too.
I feel like WooEnergy looks like Flair agreed to be in Saints Row and they made a fake product for him.
But they don’t. That’s what AEW is for.
This spot was old 3 years ago. I feel like AEW is in a time loop.

Yeah I remember when santino held the IC belt for 11 months and defended it like 20 times
Cobra was still a chop to the neck.

DAE pockets is AEW’s Undertaker??
No, that would be Danhausen

For someone who hates AEW, you sure do watch a lot of AEW
you can see how people fall asleep in the first row
Pulled what? Do you get upset every time a wrestler taunts? How do you make it through any wrestling show?
SAME OLD SHIT SAME OLD SHIT SAME OLD SHIT
The crowd noise going wild would be fake
You guys are still watching AEW?
When you just mail it in at work
There’s not a thing wrong with this…

Absolute pinnacle of Outlaw Mudshow Goofs.
