7 Worst Wrestling Moments Of The Week (June 18)
4. Please Stop Yelling
This may not have been the worst segment of the year but it was certainly the most annoying one. People don’t seem to care much for the Cruiserweights and it’s not just because of the purple ropes, it’s because the wrestlers who compete inside of those ropes are treated as clowns and cartoons. Even Neville, as good as he is, is having to force corny king dialogue into his promos. At least he didn’t have to scream via FaceTime.
Within seconds, Alicia shouting about wanting to watch Noam Dar's match played itself out. It was essentially a joke that had a four-second shelf life at most. Every second after that was increasingly obnoxious and made you wish the Cruiserweights had never come back at all. She wasn't given enough material to say anything clever, so she was reduced to screaming the same lines at him over and over.
Even though the match itself was short, the total time of the bit was a few minutes long. And all for what? Cedric Alexander doesn’t look any more credible. Alicia isn’t going to get any real heat for costing Dar the match. It was a complete waste of time that made everyone look bad and annoyed people in the building and at home.
The only thing worse was for Dar was his attempt to seduce a pepperoni pizza later in the night.
