Watching video games has proven to be an extremely popular activity in recent years, thanks in large parts to services like Twitch. But what might be even better than enjoying a good speedrun or something of the sort is a rapid series of clips accompanied by over-the-top commentary from what I think is professional wrestling’s finest announcer of all-time.
As someone who thoroughly enjoyed wrestling as a kid, it continues to be something that part of me appreciates. Longtime WWE/WWF commentator Jim Ross, in particular, remains someone I and many other current and former wrestling fans adore, and the videos above and below will likely clue non-wrestling fans in as to why that is.
This week, YouTube user TheBlueOwlPlays released the second in a series of videos (via Reddit) that overlays some of Ross’ best moments on top of clips from games like Resident Evil 4, The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker, Mario Kart 8, and even Flappy Bird. It’s the not the first time Ross’ voice has been put to this sort of use.
A third video is said to be “coming soon,” which will only further my case that Ross’ commentary can make anything better.
On a similar note, the recently released EA Sports UFC–which has been incredibly buggy for some players, often with hilarious results–led to the creation of a video featuring fake commentary from Joe Rogan and Mike Goldberg impersonators. Check it out below.
