Every Wrestling Secret WWE Tries (And Fails) To Hide
4. Calling Spots...
...and not the sort of conversational craic we heard during the Roman Reigns/Jey Uso feud, which was awesome at crafting the 'Tribal Chief' gimmick before it descended into parody.
Some wrestlers are swines for upping the volume in their calls (as endlessly evidenced in Botchamania videos over the years), but WWE used to be so much better at obscuring this when a) there were people in the building and b) the camera stayed f*cking still once in a while.
The company can't be held responsible for the echoey tones of the pandemic era, but Kevin Dunn can have a bit more flack for switching shots every three seconds. Wrestlers are taught to work the hard camera in the Performance Center almost to a fault, but that's rendered partially redundant when they can't keep up with which lens they should be looking at.
Despite the odd silences emerging from the PC/ThunderDome over the last year or so, we're still more likely to see verbals between the wrestlers than hear it. From a company that boasts such exceptional production skills, this is an inexcusable dereliction of duty.
