Recently, WWE fans were treated to a series of videos posted online seemingly made by bored superstars trying to keep themselves entertained on the road; they featured a fictional defunct wrestling promotion called Southpaw Regional Wrestling, and showed numerous WWE stars in ridiculous late 1970s - early 1980s gear playing the types of characters they grew up watching on UHF stations.
