The Clown from Outta Town, WWE Extreme Rules.

3:49 - Triple H in the opening match? What?
5:39 - shortest hardcore match ever.
7:43 - The greatest tag team in WWE history? The Dudleys are back?!
7:45 - Oh no, it's just a mediocre tag team with aspirations of adequacy.
12:45 - Why is Morrison being wasted as one of the first tag team in a tag gauntlet in the first proper match of the night? FFS. WWE needs a rip-off X-Division, they bury most of their best guys instead of elevating them.
16:03 - The commentary is truly awful.
19:45 - Why does anyone like MVP?
23:10 - Finally, a match I actually want to see - only took them the better part of half an hour. Way to go.
26:18 - 'Our fans in Europe, watching from places like the United Kingdom, Canada and Australia...'
43:39 - Match over. Nothing noteworthy occured.
45:19 - Strap match? Seriously? What fucking century are we in?
52:10 - Another match where nothing interesting happened.
53:00 - Attacking someone so they're injured and can't compete is a 'moral victory'? God, this commentary sucks.
58:29 - Here comes Orton - can't wait to see one of his sweet headlocks.
75:09 - Swagger beat Orton? Didn't expect that. One of the worst 'extreme' matches I've ever seen. Not worst I guess - just dullest.
80:51 - Shamus and Triple H are wearing almost exactly the same ring gear.
89:35 - I give up. I'm not watching the rest of this. They've had an hour and a half and not a single decent thing has happened.

The Clown from Outta Town's review of Impact!

I invited an old friend of mine who got me into ECW about a decade ago to submit something to Socko's Review. He came up with a gonzo style review of the latest Impact! Introducing The Clown from Outta Town. Enjoy - Socko

5:07 - Woo, new ranking system. Just what pro wrestling needs - more maths!
6:48 - RVD's entrance music mentions the Van Terminator - when are we gonna see it?
7:50 - Haha, Hulky
15:07 - Oh God, please don't make Hogan vs Flair happen
15:20 - And by 'God', I mean 'TNA Management'.
19:20 - Knockouts - fast forwarding.
28:55 - Flair vs Abyss? Surely this'll be a bloodbath?
29:18 - Shanon Moore. I'm 90% sure Morgan will do a run-in.
33:50 - Whoomp, there it is.
35:00 - Joe, Joe, Joe, Joe
35:51 - FUCK YEAH MUSCLE BUSTER
39:14 - These out of focus monologues are starting to get annoying. And this is only the second one. I'm gonna be raging hard in a week or two.
44:54 - GET RID OF THE FUCKING NEWS TICKER
47:29 - Sting's vanished. Predicting lights out -> baseball bat -> win.
47:57 - Oh no, there he is.
48:32 - Ladder off the stage onto a table? Hardy, you're a madman. Also, the baseball bat has come into play, so I was only half wrong :)
49:00 - And the win. So I was only 1/3 wrong.
49:30 - FUCK OFF WITH THE BLURRY, CRAPPY CAMERA CRAP
50:57 - Sweet eyepatch.
54:49 - Pope is awesome. Anderson...not so much.
59:04 - Anderson is like the irritating kid in school that absolutely nobody likes, who for some reason insists on talking to absoloutely everybody. I wish he'd just go away.
60:15 - X-Pac's bleeding from the head all over the concrete. I have been waiting so long to see that. Thank you TNA!
60:22 - watched that 3 times. Hopefully, it's the last we ever see of him in TNA.
65:32 - Neal Vs Morgan. Feud of the century incoming, hold on to your hats, this is gonna get wild.
67:21 - Get out, Moore. We don't want you screwing up this five star feud with your presence.
67:55 - Woo, Maths! Spill the beans, Eric.
68:44 - Internet fans decide who the top ten wrestlers are. Rick Astley's title shot can't be far off.
70:51 - Flair v Abyss. Please, please, please make it no DQ.
70:55 - FUCKING BLURRY MONOLOGUES AGAIN. Loving the Flair subtitles though :)
74:20 - Am I the only one who finds it disturbing that Abyss wears Hogan's ring on his wedding finger??
75:25 - Wait, Abyss v Flair is the main event? What the shit?
79:17 - Holy christ, Flair's face! What the hell did Abyss hit him with??
80:33 - Flair, those brass knuckles are the wrong way round ffs.
82:25 - I really hope Abyss and Jay Lethal recreate the Megapowers.
