Wrestling Commentary Makes Video Game Clips So Much More Entertaining

Written By blogger on Wednesday, June 25, 2014 | 3:33 PM

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 li kely 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.
