WWE And TNA: 7 Worst Moments Of The Week (July 24)

1. Kalisto’s Avant Garde Masterpiece

Oh my god. What the? How in the?

This was the first time Kalisto has ever cut a promo in his life right? Hmmm...I feel like I’ve seen him talk before, so I’ll say no. Mick Foley has often talked about cutting promos in his head in his free time. I hope this isn’t what goes through Kalisto’s mind when he’s washing dishes or taking a bath.

I mean, if I was asked to cut a promo in front of a live large audience, I would have likely embarrassed myself too. But I don’t make a living as a professional wrestler. If I was asked to perform surgery on my neighbor's’ dog I would likely embarrass myself as well...and have an unhappy dog. I think what I’m trying to awkwardly say here, is how does someone in their trained profession create something like that?

Kalisto stumbled to form sentences, he tried to work in the word "lucha", he yelled, and then he ran away, realizing that he'd created something special. It was like Lex Luger trying to rip off his shirt for Superbrawl Saturday awful. It was “sufferin’ succotash son” level uncomfortableness. Had he walked onto the set and just yelled “Lucha! Lucha! Lucha!” for 30 seconds, he would have been better off.

Not since Final Deletion have we been gifted something so beautiful as what Kalisto gave us this week.

Time to kick out.

As Rust Cohle from True Detective said "Life's barely long enough to get good at one thing. So be careful what you're good at." Sadly, I can't solve a murder like Rust...or change a tire, or even tie a tie. But I do know all the lyrics to Hulk Hogan's "Real American" theme song and can easily name every Natural Born Thriller from the dying days of WCW. I was once ranked 21st in the United States in Tetris...on the Playstation 3 version...for about a week. Follow along @AndrewSoucek and check out my podcast at wrestlingwithfriends.com
