Supernatural introduces us to the demonic world of wrestling in “Beyond the Mat.”
Here is our review!
Supernaturalhas shown us ghosts, parallel universes, and demonic possession.
Now we have the opportunity to see something even harder to believe: wrestling.
Meanwhile, Crowley and Lucifer discuss the finer things, such as who is better at the classic double-cross.
I am not a wrestling fan.
Sure, Dean got to enjoy a bit of a second childhood.
), but I still couldnt buy that these guys were wrestling fans.
There was a parallel between Gunners wrestling life and Deans hunting.
Gunner even says, Id be damned if I didnt get back up.
Gotta keep on grinding on.
From the look on Deans face, Id say that was his internal policy towards his job as well.
The guys even share stories of their war wounds inflicted on the job.
I found the scenes away from the wrestling storyline to be the most engaging.
Crowley finally finds a friend, a loyal follower named Simmons, to free him from his dog cage.
Surprise, surprise, Simmons is a double-crosser and Lucifer makes his appearance.
Sure, Lucifer might have invented the double cross, but Crowley perfected it.
There is this epic moment in which Crowley absorbs the power from the Rod.
Crowley tries to blast Lucifer but Simmons ends up the recipient.
We sure are going through them fast.
There were a few new elements to making deals with demons in this episode.
This particular demon was a managerial punch in who outsourced his soul-gathering to his human victims.
When he tries to get another lackey, the unthinkable occurs: the guys says no.
Im in between on ratings for this episode.
