...and you still barely remember it, because it's Todd Grisham.

Todd Grisham is primarily known for contributing so little to the WWE product that his synthetic blandness is best remembered as a meme.

"It's...it's Christian," Grisham announced upon the return of a really well-liked and great pro wrestler you were very much hyped for seeing once more.

Beyond that, Grisham said literally nothing of note in the most generically smooth broadcaster voice you've ever heard. He was polished, slick, inoffensive. He added no insight, wit, or gravitas to the WWE product. He simply had a face and voice considered palatable by the sanitised corporation. He didn't embarrass himself by thinking he was Bobby Heenan, nor was his presence so overbearing that he became a Michael Cole-esque figure. At least Cole gifted us "Hey f*ckhead". Nobody cared enough about Grisham to get him to kick the cat. Nor was Grisham so dorky or so desperate to be one of the boys that he endured as a Byron Saxton or Matt Striker figure. He was there, said some things you'll never in a million years remember, and left.

However.

Grisham, upon announcing the 2009 draft, made his big gambit for an iconic call.

This was his moment.

This was his way into the opening of a WWE broadcast.

When Kane's graphic flashed onscreen, Grisham screamed "Kane!" as if suddenly under attack.

He was scared of a picture of Kane.

Then again, so are the residents of Knox County, so perhaps it's not too lame or unrealistic.
