Bonus Episode 7 - Scooby Doo! Wrestlemania Mystery

May 27, 2021

Because our Patrons are incredibly wonderful, we reached our $150 goal...and because our Patrons are ever-so-slightly sadistic, they voted for us to watch the 2013 animated film Scooby Doo! Wrestlemania Mystery. Regardless of what we might think of the movie's quality (Bob has a much higher tolerance than Miles for this sort of thing, surprising no one) it manages to be both brazenly corporate and deeply strange, so it's definitely worth talking about. Some things touched on in this episode include:

• The very specific time period that was 2013 WWE
• A mystery that's as easily solvable as it is convoluted
• Sin Cara was never as popular as this movie thinks he was
• He is apparently a bee, though, which we will consider canon for the rest of time
• An unexpected Young Justice cameo
• Sequels and Speed Demons
• Racism, sexism, colonialism; it was made by white dudes, you know the drill

Our theme song is called "Learnbuckle" and it was created by the uniquely talented Rafael Medina, whose work you can and should follow via his Twitter account, @EarthMeauxFaux!
