You know your console is hot stuff when it's making its way into the storylines of the sports entertainment world, and that's precisely what has happened with the Switch.
Nintendo latest system – despite missing out on any WWE video game action in 2018 – has found itself embroiled in a heated feud between WWE stars Ember Moon and Sonya Deville and Mandy Rose. (We hope those names mean something to you, because we're typing this wondering when The Honky Tonk Man and Jake "The Snake" Roberts are going to show up.)
Turns out Ember heartlessly tore up a magazine some time ago, and as revenge, Sonya ruthlessly swatted her Switch to the floor live on camera. Gasp, right? Listen guys, Coronation Street ain't got nothin' on the WWE.
It would seem the broken Switch is providing the motivation for Ember to escalate her feud with Sonya and Mandy, and you know what that means – a lot more scripted backstage conversations followed by scripted in-ring conversations (punctuated by commercials) leading up to a good, old-fashioned wrasslin' match. Heck, that's how humankind has been solving its differences for centuries, so why stop now?

"video game system"
......I mean.....I got nothing, this is random as hell. Good ole wrasslin' drama.
If Amber Moon was playing WWE 2K18 on that... perhaps this was for the best.
Was this WWE's shot at the Switch over how horribly bad their game was on the system? I'd have thought WWE2K19 skipping it would have been enough. Vince is a stubborn old fool who holds onto petty grudges.
'Kiddy toy'??!! 😡
Even in Corrie, one of the characters made fun of another by rhetorically asking 'why don’t you go home and play your Nintendo'. 🤬
These script writers know nothing...
Breath of the Wild 2, baby!
WWE sports??? More like a drama sitcom....
Male or female ever slaps my switch outta my hand I’ll be doing 25 to life
The correct ending would be....
Ember Moon- "Oh, well. It's a Nintendo device, I will just pick it up, dust it off and get right back to Hyrule or the Mushroom Kingdom."
How did the dialogue go? "How dare you ruin my Nintendo Switch (tm)! I will have to go buy a new one nowz available at all major retailers!"
In the next episode she'll walk up holding a joycon and say "I broke your precious Nintendo IN HALF!"
I saw this last night lol.
@Ayye-ant You'd run away that quickly? And keep going until you died?
Maybe get a wrist strap?
Hmmm maybe they could also get 2k to make a wwe game that actual playable on the switch this year
@Scrummer tv game system
Imagine this scenario with a 3DS- After dropping it 40 times she vowed revenge after the hinge was a little loose.
Only Charlotte Flair; the Queen, and daughter of the GOAT; is worthy of holding a Switch!
Wow now i remember why i haven't watched wrestling since i was a kid.
Edit: Well that's not entirely true! I had no choice but to watch it when i was sentenced to jail for 5 days because i got caught with some Adult Smoking Herbs.
WWE is as real as politicians are honest.
Nintendo Switch vs Sonya Deville in a Hell in a Cell match.
I absolutely love this, considering I am a huge wrestling fan! Nintendo's reach spreads far and wide, and the UpUpDownDown Youtube channel ran by Austin Creed (Xavier Woods) is sublime.
who cares wrestling is garbage
Mate I can not wait to see more of this!!
Punch Sonya in the face. I don’t know who she is but you break my Switch and that’s what you get.
@NintendoFan4Lyf Because it's the same thing. Bad acting to set up a flimsy premise then follow up by certain heavy physical activity with sweat and a lot of grunting.
"...will not leave me alone."
Welcome to my world.
Really? with the contact lenses.
This at least proves the rigidity of the joy-con connectors. Not even a diva smashing a Switch to the ground can break the connection.
WWE is done now, it's all about AEW now!!!
"Cringe" at it's finest! 🤢
