1* ActingForTwo:
2** Daniel Bryan as René Beret and his ArchEnemy Dan Bandana.
3** The Ascension play the Surf Dudes with Attitude and the Top Guns/Danger Zone, though its possible those are the same wrestlers under different gimmicks, as they're in separate seasons
4* CastIncest: Wrestling/RusevAndLana, who are married in real life, play Big Bartholomew and his cousin Christian Joy, respectively. Parodied in that Big Bartholomew and Christian Joy are implied to be KissingCousins.
5* {{Corpsing}}: Big Bartholomew (Wrestling/{{Rusev|AndLana}}) doesn't even bother to hide his shit-eating grin when his skits get out of hand.
6* TheDanza: Lana (real name: Catherine Joy Perry) plays Big Bartholomew's cousin, Christian Joy, while Wrestling/KarlAnderson (Chad Allegra) plays Chad 2 Badd. Also, Wrestling/AJStyles (Allen Jones) playing car salesman Malibu Al in season 2, Wrestling/DolphZiggler (Nicholas Nemeth) as a heavy metal drummer Nicci Lee Styxxx, as well as Bryan "Wrestling/DanielBryan" Danielson as Dan Bandana.
7* {{Defictionalization}}: WWE has begun selling Southpaw t-shirts on their webstore, and Fandango and Tyler Breeze dressed up as their characters as an April Fool's gag at Wrestlemania Axxess.
8* FakeAmerican: Tyler Breeze (Mr Mackelroy), Renee Young (Susan Chetterfield) and Chris Jericho (Clint Bobski) are Canadian, while Rusev (Big Bart) is Bulgarian.
9* FakeNationality: American [[Wrestling/BryanDanielson Daniel Bryan]] plays Frenchman René Béret, while Mexican La Barba Grande is played physically by American Wrestling/LukeHarper and voiced by Colombian Carlos Cabrera (of WWE's Latin-American Spanish announcing team).
10* HeyItsThatSound: The steel guitar sting accompanying the Malibu Al's Car Emporium graphic in Season 2 Episode 1 is "Hawaiian Link (A)", the same used in many episodes of ''WesternAnimation/SpongeBobSquarePants''.
11* MeaningfulReleaseDate: The Season 3 announcement video was released on February 29, 2020. One of the big storylines of Season 1 was the promotion's event Lethal Leap Year, to be held on February 29... only to be revealed later that the season takes place in 1987, which is not a leap year and thus does not have a February 29.
12* QuietlyCancelled: While a third season was announced for a Summer 2020 release, due to the UsefulNotes/COVID19Pandemic and WWE releasing several stars (many who are key characters, including Chett's actor Wrestling/{{Fandango}}, on which the Season 3 announcement video was centered on), no other announcement has been made in regards to this series.
