i was bored so i asked copilot to make a wrestling angle. i don’t hate them.
Absolutely! Here’s a fun and engaging wrestling angle featuring Andy Kaufman and Lulu Pencil in AEW 2024:
Title: “The Comedy Clash”
Setting: AEW Dynamite, November 2024
Segment 1: Kaufman’s Return The show kicks off with a surprise appearance by Andy Kaufman. He enters the ring, boasting about his legendary status and how he revolutionized wrestling with his comedic antics. Kaufman claims that no one in AEW can match his wit and charisma.
Segment 2: Lulu Pencil’s Challenge As Kaufman continues to brag, Lulu Pencil’s music hits. She walks out to the ring with her signature pencil and notepad, looking determined. Lulu grabs a mic and tells Kaufman that while he may be a legend, he hasn’t faced anyone like her. She challenges Kaufman to a match, promising to show him the true spirit of wrestling.
Segment 3: The Setup Tony Khan appears on the screen and announces that Kaufman and Lulu Pencil will face off in a special “Comedy Wrestling Match” at the next AEW pay-per-view, Full Gear. The match will have unique rules, allowing both competitors to use their comedic skills to outwit each other.
Main Event: Full Gear - Comedy Wrestling Match The match is filled with hilarious moments and clever spots. Kaufman tries to use his old tricks, but Lulu Pencil counters with her own brand of humor and resilience. The crowd is thoroughly entertained as the two engage in a battle of wits and wrestling.
Climax: The Surprise Just as Kaufman thinks he has the upper hand, Lulu pulls out a giant pencil from under the ring and uses it to trip Kaufman. She then rolls him up for a quick pin, securing the victory. The crowd erupts in cheers as Lulu Pencil celebrates her win.
Aftermath: The Respect After the match, Kaufman, initially furious, eventually smiles and extends his hand to Lulu. He acknowledges her talent and declares that she has earned his respect. The two shake hands, and Kaufman raises Lulu’s hand in victory, marking the beginning of an unlikely alliance.
Replace Kaufman with Johnny Knoxville and you’ve got something completely possible.
the first attempt was auron, sephiroth, kuja, and kenny omega so i feel like nothing could ever top it :(
Billy Gunn as Auron, Angelico as Sephiroth, Kipp Sabian as Kuja, Kenny Omega as himself.
‘Kuja’ enters Trance mode and attacks ‘Auron’, Kenny Omega V-Triggers ‘Kuja’, ‘Sephiroth’ summons meteor, arena destroyed, match declared ‘No Contest’.
So we are watching old WW(F)E, and they have this generic ass masked wrestler named The Patriot. He’s in a feud with Bret Hart. I was quite surprised when I heard his music. Turns out, Kurt Angle’s music is reused
Good ol Del Wilkes. He was around a bunch of places back then before WWF, went to Japan after and back to WWF for a bit again. Just died a few years ago iirc.
Oh, I had never heard of him when I looked to see who was under the mask. I don’t care for this character
Brock Lesnars music is reused too. It was originally the XFL Chicago Enforcers music they used when the whole team would take to the field in home games.
Jerry Lawler is reused too. Originally it was Harley Race.
Oooh oooh, and CM Punk used to come out to “This Fire Burns”, but before that it was used one time, for one night, by Randy Orton. Orton didn’t feel it was a good fit though.
Orton was sick of his generic sounding song that just kept saying “HEY!”. Guess he was hearing those voices in his head…
And that’s how CM Punk got his first wwe theme.
HBK is known for his theme “sexy boy”, but it’s actually the second version of that song. The first version had Sherri Martell singing a shortened, but mostly the same version of the same lyrics.
I’ll probably post more of these as I remember them. I know hulk hogans real american is reused, but I can’t remember who originally had it.
Wait until you get to CHOPPY CHOPPY YO PEEPEE!!!
And then the next week, with John Bobbitt.
Then you’ll look up who John Bobbitt was…and hooboy. It certainly is a thing that happened…
Omg…I don’t know how you’ve never heard of it, and I don’t even want to spoil it. This is like the time I got to show my friend Hogzn vs HBK at summerslam, with them going in blind.
WWE Hall of Famer Pete Rose passes away at age 83
He doesn’t deserve a thread. Rest in piss.
At one point I thought it was stupid he wasn’t able to go in the HoF cause of gambling, in a world where MLB now advertises Draft Kings.
Then I learned like 12h ago that he’s also apparently a pedophile piece of shit so yeah fuck him lol.
Well that was a wonderful 3+ hours of my brand new 31 day old router taking a shit, refusing to respond, not allow any data transfer at all, refusal to properly reset, refusing to properly set up once I did, giving me numerous false positive results when troubleshooting and then after giving up hope and cosigning myself to heading out and buying a new one again before it suddenly, randomly starts working with zero issues and is as good as new.
Guess I’ll go post those 800 things I wanted to earlier now lmao
