I really like when pro wrestling takes itself seriously, and those who participate in it are fewer achievers and more fighters who fight it to the death. I realize this is an archaic premise, and because WWE is the biggest promotion in the world, it’s ridiculous to keep me so expensive.
So I try to find little things to enjoy.
For that purpose, I found my new favorite thing throughout WWE.
It started here:
And was frozen on this week’s episode of Friday night SmackDown in this segment (I use this video because it contains the parts relevant to this article, which WWE and FOX cut out of their videos):
If you did not realize it, it’s not the show itself, but rather the host, Bayley, and her stubborn insistence that anyone who has a guest with it, even if they interrupt, should use the floating door in the ring to enter. I thought it might have been a bit for the debut episode a month back when she did it for Bianca Belair, but when she yelled at Reginald to use the door if he was going to interrupt and then Sasha Banks an ‘idiot ‘cries as she yells at her to use the door that locked it for me.
Sometimes it’s really the small details that make segments like this memorable, at least for me.
Shout out to Bayley because they’re making it as much fun as it would be otherwise.
