10 Totally Stupid Things WWE Has ALREADY DONE Since WrestleMania 35
1. The Viking Experience
Setting forth a meme maelstrom, WWE, on the April 15 RAW, debuted and renamed the War Raiders. Erik and Ivar became known as the Viking Experience.
Do you know how thick Vince McMahon thinks you are?
Vince McMahon thinks you are a goldfish woefully ill-equipped to remember the last 15 minutes of your life, hence why every RAW and SmackDown segment is recapped moments after it happened. He thinks you are the problem behind WWE's popularity woes, incredibly. He thinks you don't understand, hence the exposition and the broad characters and the goofy ricocheting sound effects and those soap opera faces backstage interviewers are mandated to pull.
Heel X just said something in poor taste. Baron Corbin just said Roman Reigns' leukaemia battle was nothing compared to the stress of running RAW. Was that unspeakably vile enough to resonate in itself? No? Then have somebody twist their face for five unnatural seconds.
Why else would Vince tell us that the War Raiders, who dress like vikings to intimidate their rivals, are in fact Vikings, capital V?
Perhaps this in an exaggeration, and one day, we will remember the Viking Experience as a mere Ringmaster-esque hiccup in Erik and Ivar's great story of reviving tag team wrestling in WWE once and for all.
Or perhaps WWE, realising they've already done a piss bit, will install Lio Rush as their manager and have him sh*t himself on RAW to punish his backstage transgressions.
