Swerved director/producer decided to do an impromptu AMA just now.

Hey guys, I'm the director of the #1 prank show on the WWE Network, Swerved, here to talk all things. AMA. • /r/SquaredCircle

 

Letting us know there will be bathroom breaks pretty early.

 

This made my day.

 

oh my god that is so fucking precious.

 

It's so good to know there are still good things in this world

 

Yo when you do your inevitable Summer Slam interviews (I hate you) you should ask when kayfabe was spoiled for different wrestlers. Kinda curious to hear those stories.

 

I've got something I'm working on right now that we're pegging to SS, but I actually think I may be able to sneak that in there.

 

Is John Cena into pegging? I bet John Cena is into pegging.

 

Nikki hasn't asked me yet if I'm into pegging, and I have nothing else to draw on to assess that question properly.

 

Don't ever change Enzo, ever.

 

Pure George Carlin there.

 

NXT was awesome - main event was Joe Bobby Roode and the Revival vs American Alpha Finn and Shinsuke

 

Joe Bobby Roode and His Revival would be a good band name

 

ENZO / CASS 2016

Cena can be secretary of state.

 

Maybe I'm the only one but I think Nakamura is just a good wrestler. Watching his work I think it's good but it just doesn't blow me away.

 

lmao Flatbush Zombies cosplaying as New Day

 

Watched the Hoho Lun match and man it was awkward. The match itself was good with Daivari carrying most of it but Hoho Lun just didn't look up to it. His facial expressions were just so vacant/not interested. Gotta work on that or WWE may have a problem.

 

You're the only one. Honestly even his entrance at the live event I went to blew me away

 

enlliac did the research, spoke to every wrestling fan on earth
#confirmed

 

Nak is awesome but I definitely agree that he's not "blow away" status in the ring. He is certainly great and probably in the top 10 in ring guys in the company, but his charisma and presence being factored in shoot him up to one of the top three overall performers imo. Just a blast to watch.

 

Yup. I haven't seen enough of his work to be a good judge but for bigmike to say he's not blown away by his wrestling and the first counterpoint to be that his entrance is really amazing kind of says it all.

He's charismatic as hell for sure and from what I can tell that tends to cloud a lot of peoples' judgment.

 

This is something worth watching for two reasons if you need exposure to either of these guys.

 

Doubtful because none of the news sites seem to say, but does anyone know if the NXT edition of 2K17 is WWE Shop exclusive? It's up for preorder there, but nowhere else. If I can grab it on Amazon for the 20% off Prime discount, then it's a no brainer, but I'm gonna pass if not.

 

Headline on Wreddit says "MOTY Candidate/Amazing moment at round 2 tapings" from CWC. I refuse to open it, but Cedric/Ibushi??? Gulak/ZSJ???

 

Cedric/Ibushi
