The first episode of this "cartoon for adults", masterminded by Robot Chicken's Seth Green, was a bit of a letdown for me. There's some good, but also some bad. Sadly, the bad is the part that should matter most.
The good: The adults - Rick Flair, Sgt. Slaughter, and even Vince ("A Bra? I can't wear this! Probably?") - were voiced by their real-life counterparts: a huge plus! The animation itself is also quite nice: For the most part it's pretty clear to see who's who, even with the juniors, and i.m.o. The style fits nicely with what this cartoon is trying to be.
The Bad: The episode itself came off pretty lackluster, not that funny, and nonsensical to me! Sure, it had 4 or 5 moments that mildly amused me, but at least twice that had me thinking "this is just plain stupid", most of those involving HHH and Stephanie... I think they completely missed the mark with the HHH-character.
Hope it picks up, because seriously; with the entire WWE-Universe to draw from, Seth&Co should be able to come up with some better jokes and story lines than this!*
