I’m pretty smart so I knew when we got invited to do this takeover that we should follow the lead of the most important website of them all: Buzzfeed

How fucking smart is that!

Though I used to write music content for a pro wrestling website, I’m out of practice now, so as I was ideating like a beast for this takeover. I went through several different ideas before I settled on the excellent choices that I made.
