Funny / Botchamania

The wrestler asks, "Have you been on camera, brother?" The man responds, "I've been on too many times."

  • The ending, where the wimpiest bitch slaps ever are put to music from Super Mario World and R. Lee Ermey saying, "What the fuck is that?!"

  • One of the endings has audio clips of the announcer from NFL Blitz set to photos of wrestlers and the horrible angles they were involved in (the Montreal Screwjob, the Fingerpoke of Doom, the Shockmaster's entrance, etc.) Maffew inserts his own jokes about them, some of them straightforward (a sound byte of a player's name and the corresponding wrestler), some clever (a picture of Eddie Guerrero with the sound byte "Holmes!"), and some you can only catch if your pause finger is fast enough.
    • What sounds like "She-he" with a picture of Chyna: "Sorry, that joke was a bit obvious. I was only kidding, anyway. Besides, who or what else could I put here? Orlando Jordan? Goldust? Now that's just offensive!"

"In response to the double count-out finish of the John Cena vs. The Miz match at WrestleMania XXVII (before the match restarted), the Cornette Medley, a collection of photoshopped Cornette Faces turning Jim Cornette into various people/characters such as Ryu, The Iron Sheik, RoboCop, Konata Izumi, Arachniman, Kamina, Ash Ketchum, and all three Faces of Foley (via Strange Minds Think Alike), among many others. Set to "Call on Me" (known to YTMNDers as the "X Never Changes Facial Expressions" song). Contributions lovingly came from 420chan's fabled /wooo/ board.

• #201:
  • Mark Haskins landing on his neck after a botched Shooting Star Press. What makes the comedy of this moment is that Brock Lesnar's entrance music is playing during the clip! In case you don't get it, Brock Lesnar's most famous botch was nearly exactly like that of Haskins'.
  • Suddenly, NINJAS! Thousands of them! Hey, Mr. Ninja! Watch out for that—(crash)...camera.
  • A joshi wrestler does a big splash off the top rope...and her mask flies off.

  • The setup for CZW is heralded by game footage from Star Fox 64. As in, hitting the eight locks and shooting the rail switcher to make the Forever Train crash into a fuel bunker and explode:
  Peppy: Okay, now shoot the switcher!
  Zandig: NOBODY DOES THIS TO ZANDIG!
  (The tank then shoots the switcher)
  SFX: (as a communique from Conan O'Brien and his Walker, Texas Ranger lever) JEEZUS!
  Peppy: Good going, Fox!

  Zandig: AUUUUUUUGH...YOU'RE GONNA DIE! YOU ARE GONNA DIE!!!
  (KABOOOOOOM!)
  • Zack Ryder comes into the ring in crutches...yet he seems to be using both feet normally. The dopey music really sells this bit.
  John Cena: [Thinking] Which one of Zack's feet hurts? He's limping on both of them. [Zack climbs the steps to the ring painfully] Wait, you don't need crutches now? [Zack heads back] Why didn't he use the wheelchair anyway? Wheelchairs work on ramps.

Jones", "Cena sucks", "Turtle-neck", "Su-per Dra-gon", "Fuck this shit", "Wife-beater", "You screwed Bret", "H-B-K" and "Under-taker". The commentators nearly lose it while Drew is understandably pissed.
  • At TNA Victory Road '12, Jeremy Borash holds a cell phone and tells us that "Victory Road" is the No. 1 Twitter trend in the United Kingdom. Maffew then reminds all that "There's no legal way of watching TNA PPVs live in the UK. Be careful what you brag about."

  • This week's Madame de Stael gag lists "Boredom" as no Scott Steiner, and "Suffering" as, err.... no Scott Steiner.
  • An extremely heavy man makes his debut for an indy promotion, leans back on the ropes during his introduction... and breaks the ring. Maffew even works in the losing horns from The Price Is Right to add insult to injury.
  • Poor Maria Menounos really gets it in this Botchamania for her performance at WrestleMania XXVIII. Sure, she got a lot of acclaim for working most of the match with broken ribs, but it's not her overall performance that gets nitpicked by Maffew. For starters, Maria and Kelly Kelly performed a double stinkface to Eve Torres and as Maffew points out, "Celebrity Woman stinkfaces Eve. Her fake tan rubs off on her arse."^note Things go From Bad to Worse as the Internet was immediately abuzz with rumors that Maria left skid marks before the match. To make matters worse, she became the victim of "Corpsing at 'Mania? SEND FOR THE MAN!"
  • Apparently, CZW has invested in Japanese tables.

  Chris Rock: Don't go to clubs with {THE WIFE BEATER!!!} Sure it feels safe inside, but what about {THE HATE CLUB!!!} waiting outside with guns? They know you ain't got none. {I GUARANTEE IT!!!} If a woman tells you she's 20, and looks 16, she's {FIVE!!!}.

  Alice: Get over?
  Cena: You have to run with the others! First rule of a caucus race, you know...

    Caption: It's a bit too meta when you're fucking up moves on the Botchamania guy.

    • The New Day get ready to apply their finishing move on Karl Anderson. Anderson's partner Luke Gallows is about two steps away and could easily thwart them, but turns out that he has to be taken out by a big boot by Big Cass, so he has to wait until then. Cue "Controller Disconnected" signal.
    • Afterwards, Kofi Kingston pins Aiden English, even though, as it's shown later, Anderson blind-tagged English, and the referee clearly saw it and did the hand signal acknowledging it, so Anderson was the man to pin.
      Caption: Thirty seconds pass; Kingston pins the non-legal & possibly dead English. Just Saiyan. [cue picture of the New Day in Saiyan armor from WrestleMania 32]
  • A certain mistake in one of the previews for the Money in the Bank ladder match doesn't go unnoticed.
    [citing the participants of the match] Chris Jericho, Sami Zayn, Alberto Del Rio, Cesaro, Kevin Owens, and Dean Ambrose. [cue a publicity still from the match, showing Kalisto by mistake, who didn't participate in the match] And the aptly named, Sir Not-Appearing-in-This-Film.
  • Tom Phillips corpsing? Send for the man!
  • Seems that Cesaro's habit of uppercutting the hell out of steel steps in WWE comes from Claudio Castagnoli's habit of uppercutting the hell out of steel chairs in the independent circuit. Die, Chair, Die!, indeed.

  • Sting talks to JBL about days of WCW past...and a graphic pops up reading: "Starrcade 1997 drew an amazing 1.9 million pay-per-view buys, which was a WCW record best". What happens next would be bad enough even without the dog-barking rendition of Megalovania that cues up:
    Caption: Wait, what?
    1.9 Buy-rate doesn't mean 1.9 million buys
    1.9 in 1997: 650,000 to 700,000 buys

  • This edition features audio clips of CM Punk's story on The Art of Wrestling podcast as featured on Last Week Tonight with John Oliver. And while John Oliver was professional enough to not show video clips of the match in which Punk, after being Z-Pack'd to hell and back for a staph infection, shit himself in a match on SmackDown, Maffew, who found the match Punk and Oliver were talking about on the WWE Network...was considerably less professional. Especially considering this track from Conker's Bad Fur Day was playing throughout the bit.

    • Clips of Jericho's "Bubbly!" sound byte used as either notes during Brock Lesnar's entrance theme, or for stuttering Bubba Ray Dudley's introduction.
    • Bryan Alvarez finds out about the loss of the title belt during his podcast.

  • Whenever new Raw announcer Dio Maddin is heard speaking, a picture of John Madden with Dio's face superimposed appears.
  • A match between two female wrestlers at CMLL ends in a crucifix pin that somehow manages to have both women's shoulders up. Made more hilarious in that the match is later superimposed on a television screen watched by a smiling Seth Rollins, as if he's relieved to have found a match with a worse finish that the aforementioned HIAC match he was in.
  • Charlotte Flair and Bayley wrestle at Manila. They use a table. It's a Japanese table! (And then Bayley uses a kendo stick on the table.) This causes some people in the audience to chant "Fuck you table!", resulting in "I AM— FUCK YOU TABLE!"

• #399
  • The final shot in the opening of Jim Cornette has the face of Brian Zane pasted over it in the wake of Cornette's controversial call during NWA Power. Maffew's elaboration in the description deserves mention too:
    Cornette has been replaced in the intro with a younger, sexier angry white guy after Botchamania was notified of his comments this week regarding Final Fantasy VIII being "over-rated" which we all know is the only topic to unify wrestling fans worldwide. It's a good job Cornette Face hasn't been a thing for years (because fans on message boards started using FUCK THIS COMPANY and CORNETTE FACE for literally every segment on Raw and it became unbearable).

  • The episode opens with a clip from Frasier, with Martin watching TV while it plays the Botchamania intro. Daphne enters the scene and Martin tells her the show is just starting, leading to her giving her thoughts on it, which are a scarily accurate description of Botchamania.
    Daphne: I don't get this show. People send in videos of themselves having the most embarassing and painful accidents, they add cartoon noises and music, and everyone laughs themselves silly?

Botchamania Specials

• CZWamania 2006: Sonjay Dutt called Jigsaw "Halloween," which everyone started calling him, even the announcer. After Jigsaw corrected him, the announcer followed up with this:
  Announcer: Ladies and gentlemen, I have just been informed that Jigsaw does not have a comeback, but he thinks you're a dick.
• Steinermania: What do you get when you take Scott Steiner and Triple H's godawful match at Royal Rumble 03 and set it to the tune of "Sneaking" from MGS:VR Missions This.
• Sincaramania: The massive bust that was Mistico becoming Sin Cara, capped off with the Sin Cara theme:
  Sin Cara, Sin Cara, friendly neighborhood Sin Cara
  Wears a mask, only fights underneath stupid lights
  Look out! Here comes the Sin Cara!
  
  Can he botch? Listen, jerk: his hurricanrana will never work.
  Jumps the ropes, that was nice! This match was recorded twice.
  Look out! There goes the Sin Cara!
  
  In the heat of the night, he comes out of the blue
  And with all of his might, he points his finger at YOU!
  
  Sin Cara, Sin Cara, famous luchadore Sin Cara
  He was blue, now he's red, dropping everybody on their heads
  Look out! Here comes the Sin Cara!
  • Before that, JR's announcement and the "translations" that follow:
    JR: The WWE family has signed an athlete that we believe...
    Caption: We need a new Rey Mysterio Jr.
    JR: ...has the potential...
    Caption: He wears a mask.
    JR: ...to be the next great superstar in WWE.

    Caption: SIN CARAS
  • For whatever reason, Del Rio didn't like Sin Cara. And Del Rio made sure to beat el piss out of him.
• Botchamania: Let's All Laugh at the Hardys is focused on the complete and utter absurdity that was the "Brother Nero" promo/contract signing between Matt and Jeff Hardy. Complete with lower budget parody filmed by other TNA wrestlers: Ethan Carter III as Matt, Mike Bennett (acting like he has no idea what's going on) as Jeff, Tyrus (the former Brodus Clay) as Reby Sky, and Rockstar Spud as the baby.
  Mike: ...I am speechless.
  Tyrus: So...speechless in a good way?
  Mike: In a "I don't know if that is the greatest thing I've ever seen", or "the absolute worst, and I am dumber for watching it."
  • This introduced the French Tables (tables that fall back upon the wrestlers who go through them).
  • And then came the endings...
    • Matt as he's playing the piano was ripe for parody...
      Matt: O hai Mark.
    • A MTV Cribs spoof opening of the Hardy property.

  • Volume 2 features such gems as:
    • A parody of the intro of Jackass, complete with the disclaimer read at the beginning by Matt's gardener (which is similar to the show's) and the Minutemen's "Corona".
      Johnny Knoxville: Hi, I'm—
      Matt Hardy: Brother Nero!
      Johnny Knoxville: —welcome to Jackass.
    • Willem Dafoe on "The Final Deletion":
      Special Agent Paul Smecker: For ten seconds, this place was armageddon! Ngaaaa—THERE WAS A FIRE FIGHT!!!
      (Cut to Matt shooting Jeff from across the ring with a Roman Candle assault rifle)
      Jeff: (blocking projectiles with a trash can lid) WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU?!
      Broken Matt: DELETE! DELETE! DELETE!
      Jeff: (screams as more fireworks rain down on him)
    • Footage of "The Final Deletion" intercut with The Producers reactions to Springtime for Hitler (before the titular song) all set to "SAVE the World"
    • A spoof Neon Genesis Evangelion opening set to a piano rendition of "Cruel Angel Thesis", with plenty of Freeze-Frame Bonus moments:

• After subscribing to the WWE Network, one of the first things Maffew did was "road test" it. In that he cued up the infamous Harlem Heat promo wherein Booker T says "Hulk Hogan, we comin' for YOU, nigga!" In the past it was clumsily dubbed over, if not bleeped out altogether; here he wanted to see if it was left unedited. And indeed, the clip is unedited. This causes Maffew and his buddies to cheer.
• While a guest on an Internet Darlings Live panel, Steve and Larson from the podcast Steve and Larson's Going In Raw were of the opinion that Bret Hart was the most overrated champion of all time. Like with Dolph Ziggler name-checking Botchamania on Raw, Maffew reacted like he was having a coronary. (The rest of the panel was not much better.) And when they said that Lex Luger should've won the championship over him, that's when the wheels came flying off the panel.
• Another Maffew-having-a-coronary moment came when WWE Network announced plans for "Botch Club", which was pretty much Botchamania but with WWE branding all over it (and all the legal red tape that implied). But when one fan asked Karl Anderson on Twitter if there were plans for more episodes of it, Karl's response was a blunt "I don't think so". Maffew's response was a .gif of Mick Foley running around ringside cheering, hollering, and celebrating.
• A wrestler by the name of Alex Ohlson was filmed wrestling. What does this have to do with Botchamania? Only the fact that the man has such a striking resemblance to Maffew that many people on the internet actually thought Maffew made his debut as a professional wrestler. Sure, Maffew cleared up the confusion later, but it didn't stop the rest of the IWC from reacting to it. Including slews of people waiting for him to botch just so they could point and laugh at him instead.
