The recent overuse of the word “sequence” on commentary

By Scott Keith on 18 September 2018

Hi Scott

I don't know if it's just me, but it feels like the commentary teams on WWE are going overboard with their use of the word "sequence" nowadays – every time there's a good bit of back and forth in a match, we get "What a sequence!" or similar.

Is it just me, or is this a really badly judged turn of phrase? It just feels… I dunno, like they're basically saying "Look at the prepared choreography, folks!" and it just utterly obliterates any sort of kayfabe or suspension of disbelief.

Maybe I'm just being too picky? What do you think?

It's just another bit of Vince weirdness that he gets onto from time to time, I think. But yeah, I find that kind of thing pretty annoying as well.
