It's always fun when pro wrestling takes pot shots at itself.

WWE can be a little po-faced sometimes, but not on this week's SmackDown. They ran a send-up video package that described the genuinely unwanted Sami Zayn vs. 'King' Corbin match as "perhaps the least-anticipated match in the history of SmackDown".

The cheesy voiceover dude also dubbed Sami the "irritating force" and Corbin the "unlikeable object" before calling the bout "a match nobody asked for".

At least they're self-aware, eh?
