YMMV / Jason Jordan

Go To

  • Fan Nickname: "Jason Angle" quickly became this for Jordan following July 17, 2017.
  • Hilarious in Hindsight: This tweet. A fan actually made a T-shirt reading "Kurt Angle is Jordan's dad!" and showed it to Jordan and Gable at WrestleMania 32's Axxess, more than a year before Angle's "mystery scandal" storyline turned out to be that Jordan was his (kayfabe) son.
  • Memetic Mutation
    • My black son.note 
    • Kurt Angle went Raw on Jason Jordan's momma.note 
  • Narm: On the November 20, 2017 WWE Raw, him getting re-injured in a match with Braun Strowman and then verbally acknowledging him as The Dreaded. While the latter is true, the timing of the line itself couldn't be any more laughable — not only it was said that the re-injury was Jordan's own fault instead of Strowman's, but the latter was just ambushed and himself injured (by Kane) right before said line.
  • The Scrappy: His run as Kurt Angle's illegitimate son has been loathed by the IWC. On paper, it has all the markings for Jordan to pull a Faceā€“Heel Turn and cash in his clout with Angle in the form of Nepotism while Angle is none the wiser due to being blinded by his love for his son, but instead Jordan remains a face, and a really charisma-challenged one at that. To put it another way: you know you're having issues getting over when the audience's reaction to your entrance makes Roman Reigns look like "Stone Cold" Steve Austin. WWE seem to have realized this, as Jordan was turned into a whiny heel (like his father became famous for) after Survivor Series, and he seemed to be on his way to indeed use his clout with Angle for his own gain, before his neck injury put a stop on that.
