See, I don't think it's better because the whole point of it is to add in hypercurrent pop culture stuff like tonight's discussion about who is hosting Saturday Night Live this week or that stuff about Kobe Bryant in order to trick the audience. <_< Uh, is this directed to anyone in particular?

Ah, I see! Sorry about that! It's been a really long day.
Anyways, I can see a couple of scenarios where someone would want to do the announcing in a closed, more controlled area rather than doing it live. It may improve the flow of the commentary or just help improve the sound but just to add pop culture references is a waste. ... Copied to Clipboard!

WWE has done it before for stuff like NXT and Superstars when they're overseas and don't feel like bringing people like Scott Stanford and Jack Korpella across the ocean just to call 2 matches, but it's pretty rare. I think that's a fair reason.
EDIT: And back when Tribute to the Troops was still over in the Middle East they would do it there too, that makes sense. -- Thank you, Eddie Guerrero. http://bryandanielson.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/photo3.jpg ... Copied to Clipboard!

Well, if you want to actually start FOLLOWING the company, I would suggest the most recent show "The Thirteenth Hat" since that's the Season Premiere for 2012 (they did two more shows last weekend that aren't out yet).
The three-night King of Trios 2011 event is generally considered their best stuff from last year, if you just want to see them at their best. -- Thank you, Eddie Guerrero. http://bryandanielson.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/photo3.jpg ... Copied to Clipboard!

From: X_Dante_X | #377 Oh GOD no. CHIKARA is serious when it comes to things like obsessive continuity and Championship prestige, but it's all a big live action comic book for the most part. But don't get me wrong, the matches aren't laugh-a-minute silliness or anything. They have as much hard-hitting action and technical masterpieces as any company. They have a very good sense of when and how to pace the comedy, while still having the utmost reverence for the "sport" of professional wrestling itself, in all its international forms and styles. And it's all *gasp* PG! -- Thank you, Eddie Guerrero. http://bryandanielson.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/photo3.jpg ... Copied to Clipboard!

I also suggest following CHIKARAoffice on YouTube.
