There is no sign of land.
You are coming down with me, hand in unlovable hand.

And I hope you die.

Part of what makes it funny is his grand gesture at the end. It's not the worst kip up in the world, I'd say my four year-old does worse. But he goes Ta Da! at the end and that's just hilarious.

Killer Kross, who's apparently a AAA guy, not that you'd know that from the video. Classic Impact - debut a guy but don't actually tell us who he is.

Do they have another guy on their roster whose name starts with a K? I feel like a team called KK&K is long overdue for Impact.

I mean, is this really that odd? Of all the things to pick on Impact about this seems like a real reach. How many times have people debuted on TV and not had a name until the next week when they formally introduced themselves in some promo?

Well, he also wrestles as Kevin Kross, so making him Killer Kevin Kross would have the same effect, though it sounds more like an Arolucha gimmick.

Doing a big reveal angle and then assuming your audience will all know the person who's revealed is incredibly dumb, and it's only common on Impact. WWE makes a huge deal out of making sure you know who everyone on screen is at any given time.

Isn't Kevin "KM" Matthews there? Not that I'd know, since I don't think I could point that dude out of a lineup if I had to.

He also does it on camera and acknowledges the camera guy is there.

Meltzer says it is a multi-year deal for Eli Drake. You get differing opinions on him but I think he would be exposed in NXT and they don't need a second EC3.

I have zero love for NXT/WWE/HHH/VKM but EC3 managed to create a persona that's absolutely perfect for them.

Aron Rex is bad. He's repped by Jim Cornette who always reps Mikey Mondo, which gives you the level of viability.

Aaron Rex sucks because he's like that one guy who smokes 50 cigarettes a day and lives to be 90 years old, i.e. a guy you can point to and say "See? WWE didn't push this idiot, they know what they are doing!"
