Exciting!

So what I assumed was the Rumble Room layout was pretty much spot on except for what I thought was a pitchfork being a regular swing.

The new Poundabout has variation!

We actually are having mud starts this season! This one looks like another bland smackwall obstacle but it's better than nothing. My biggest fear this season was only having 1 start that didn't change but I'm glad that's not the case.

The Sinister Snowglobe was a weird choice to bring back but the Catastropic Cannon was one of the zone launches that almost felt like it was going to come back.

We also got a good look at the start of the first part of that jaw dropping 3 stage obstacle course. Having rings and danglers is going to be a ton of fun to watch.

Having Cena and Nicole at the set at least in the zone is a really interesting decision and I feel like it fits the two new hosts more.

This is my favorite commercial so far because we see the hosts in action. While it's not exactly like what the Johns and Jill gave us, it still feels like Wipeout. Fingers crossed we get new zone obstacles in the second block.

Re: First True Trailer!


There's a lot to note here!
1. Holy sh*t this course looks absolutely beautiful.
2. There are two separate paths so we'll likely be getting more obstacle variation than we thought.
3. It seems as if the Zone commentary is live which is a nice touch. I really hope not all of it is live because I would like to see booth segments return.
4. There seem to be three trapezes and one dangler on the second round, which is very interesting if I do say so myself.
5. Zone seems to start with a classic bobsled launch, and the first obstacle is Psychedelic Snowflake but if it was tilted the other way. (For those of you who don't know, the top of the original Snowflake in S5 was tilted out about two degrees towards the tank, so contestants wouldn't fall directly down the snowflake itself and get seriously hurt).
6. Holy sh*t this course looks absolutely beautiful.
7. Post-Big Ball ob is definitely Poundabout x Total Carnage, love it.

That's about all I can really point out at this point in time that's of significance. VERY excited for this!

Very exciting stuff!
More confirmation that the last two obstacles on the qualifier they've been showing are very similar to Poundabout and Rumble Room.
First look at the Wipeout Zone, with a launch like Bobsled Blastoff and Catastrophic Cannon and the Psychedelic Snowglobe is returning and I think it is definitely one of the better zone obstacles they had in Season 5 (hoping for Spinnergy even more, the others I'm not too much of a fan of) And of course mud obstacles are returning.

A funny random thought I had is what if John Cena was on set (or acting as if he was) throwing those dodgeballs on the mud obstacle shown with the wrestling backdrop, considering he is shown holding a dodgeball in this trailer and one of the other ones. Kind of a stretch, but maaaaaybe emoticon

If they are doing more returning obstacles from the past "newer" seasons for the zone, I've already mentioned I hope they brought back Spinnergy, but I would also like to see most of the Season 6 zone obstacles, especially the ending obstacles they had. (Bounder Pounder and Twisted Falls)

Re: First True Trailer!


Seeing as the entire course a zone will probably be returning obstacles, not bringing back Spinergy and one of the season 6 zone enders would be a massive missed opportunity. As good as this new zone looks especially considering it's returning obstacles, I'm a bit disappointed they opted for the Bobsled Blastoff/Catastrophic Cannon over the Towering Flume of Doom or Blob.

I'm guessing that all of the 4 hanging things are different. You've got a trapeze, rope, ring, and dangler.

I think that clip of John and Nicole laughing is taken in the new booth set so I'm guessing only zone will have live commentary.

Lastly, I'll touch on Cena throwing dodgeballs. If this doesn't happen at least once this season, this reboot is a flop.

This new reboot looks absolutely amazing. The course looks great, and while Nicole, Cena, and Camille might not have the same chemistry as the Johns and Jill, it looks like they work together pretty well. The zone looks promising, with an absolutely mind-blowing design in my opinion. There might be a bit too many smacks, but I'm still very hopeful about the reboot. And I really hope they bring back Spinergy and Bounder Pounder.

One thing I'm really holding out hope for is that Slippery Course will return in the second block with new variations. However, I don't know if the new mud pool is big enough for that.

Commercial hunted for a few hours, and found two more promos so far!

https://streamable.com/5eo7va
https://streamable.com/cyzhp8

The first, shorter one shows a zone launch mainly. The second confirms.. Smallsy!

Re: First True Trailer!


The falls this season are looking really good. It looks like they're motivating people who aren't running towards the balls rather than those who hesitate. I'm not too upset with this seeing as it turns what would probably be very boring wipeouts into something pretty great.

After seeing all of these commercials, I really have a lot of faith in this reboot. The only thing I'm nervous about is the Washout zone rules staying. That's really the only way they could really mess this up.
