Russell Wilson has a natural ability to make himself famous in the internet. Mainstream viewers don't like the way he has the viral touch. His tryhard persona inspired the internet's fury and got clicks. Sometimes it isn't fair. He made it his life's mission to destroy the internet from the inside after it led to the death of someone he was close to.
The mission was partially completed. Russ is a bigger deterrent than Jackson. Kids don't do TikTok. The latest entry in the Russ archives is a Subway sandwich named after a football player. Russ is standing in a model house, talking to someone who is outside the frame, about his new Subway sandwich. The interpretation is generous.
Wilson was disassociating from reality after the loss to Seattle in Week 1. I was expecting the camera to pan around to the cashier's counter at a fast food joint as a confused employee informs him that he's actually at Wendy's.
His demeanor distracts from the sandwich. Russ is trying to get me to eat a sandwich, but I don't know if he's also delivering a threat. The barefaced look makes people uncomfortable. Russ didn't become a mainstay in yankee spring training due to his clean-shaven look He was supposed to talk about a sandwich in a hoodie. Russ is talking to people who won't listen to him talk about his sandwich, which he named after himself. Russ has an official video from TikTok, so it wouldn't get confused for a marketing campaign for Mindhunters.
Wendy's has been teaching people how to use athletes to promote their products. Reggie Miller exercising his squatting rights inside a Wendy's during March Madness and Reggie Bush getting his Wendy's Pretzel bacon Pub Cheeseburger back for a limited time only are very different. Watching Russ has never been more cringeworthy. When he can't carry a Subway ad, how can he carry a franchise? Considering who the last Subway guy was, that question indicates the state of his brand.
The idea of Danger-Russ used to be a lot of fun. I can't stop watching How bad it is is almosthypnotizing. I think his goal is to make people cringe. Russ may be an auteur and method- acting savant who lives his roles in the same vein as Cohen. He probably set up a ring light and let her use it. Russ is going to succeed if he sabotages the internet discourse. He is trying to punish us all for consuming media.
