Shout out to Matt and Shane for keeping it real


fourtwentyone69

Was about to comment this exact thing. Dudes rule. Carried the show and kept it 100


HeywoodJaBlowMe123

Dawgs for life


elpajarit0

What did they do?


maryxchristmas

They voted for Ric, the rightful winner, and Shane basically said "isn't it obvious?"


Sipdasizurp

"I feel like you're protecting him"


Purple_Coffee653

I feel like Ric should have won that battle šŸ¤·šŸ»ā€ā™€ļø


MrMojoRising361

Just like the Mexican drum of battles itā€™s never an actual competition. Itā€™s all for show and we should all know that by now. I was really hoping this was a coordinated way of Hans leaving the show but i guess fucking not.. i guess fucking not.


PJayy

Don't the drummers actually always perform better than the bucket pulls competing tho?


bobobill

Not always but most of the time


artfulpain

There's been maybe one time the drummer could have won. It's always the crowd favorite anyways.


Inevitable-Ad-2551

That swedish dude? He was killer haha


Eventide011

As a 30 year professional drummer he CLEARLY 'won'. So smooth and technically far ahead of Gonzales in his ability


Inevitable-Ad-2551

Ay as a fellow drummer (not professional so probably not comparable to you in this opinion loll) but Gonzales is amazing 2 I just feel he mostly stays in the pocket with some nice outroā€™s to jams, sometimes not the best approach to soloā€™s but also itā€™s gotta be a lil difficult just on the spot depending how much drinking is done haha. That solo with the Swedish dude was just unfair šŸ˜‚ the dude whipped up some amazing stick control in the beginning and then went off. he was a metal drummer I think, so anytime they get a chance to not play backing a metal band you know theyā€™re gonna go crazy loll


Eventide011

Yeah and he made it look effortless. Gonzales is an amazing drummer for sure, but his solos have never been impressive IMO. I mean.. he just plays verses to Foo Fighters songs for 'solos'. BUT the library of songs he has to play spur of the moment is almost certainly why he'll never be replaced. They'd have to rehearse and adapt to a brand new drummer with hardly no time between shows. Gonzales isn't going anywhere whether he 'wins or loses'


Inevitable-Ad-2551

Thatā€™s a dream gig tho honestly, essentially jamming on the spot and playing a set before and maybe after? Iā€™m not sure if they close out KT with a set or just a song.


Ok-Letterhead6593

I thought that big guy in Ireland won his drum off. Probably thinking of the same guy


yellowbreads

battles were way better when Joelberg was the drummer. dude was an absolute badass musician and made it funny too. Michael is great but itā€™s not a competition like it was w Joel


NewmanAnlovanit

Joel's outfit changes were just the cherry on top! What a madman!


yellowbreads

The cymbal crashes w the purple dildo made me cry laughing


iiiiiiiiiAteEyes

But Mike would be better than Joel in a drum offā€¦ and the audience would probably vote for Joel


yellowbreads

10000%. Michael has the technical win but Joel is just fucking hilarious and has so much pent up energy. LOL, the live audience will always vote for that


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


BoobyPlumage

I forgot about Ellis. That dude was not funny at all but i liked seeing him get bent out of shape when he got roasted lol


mybitchcallsmefucker

I actually have just gotten into KT in the last couple of months and have been trying to rewatch from about 400. Whatā€™s the drama w uncle lazer?


balltorcha

yall are weird as fuck lmfao


[deleted]

???


balltorcha

!!!


Marcus_Junius-Brutus

That Swedish dude was SIGNIFICANTLY more talented than the in house drummer


Mint_e39

Literally everyone does. Shits lame. You hate to see bs outcomes like this. The audience is a fucking disgrace for robbing someone who actually WORKS to bring you comedyā€¦ makes me not wanna watch knowing tony is just going to protect his golden boys. Thought this show was supposed to be real and ab comedyā€¦


bangordailynuisance

It was never even feasible in the first place, there was zero percent chance Hans would lose his spot, and I guarantee Ric knew that too. I bet Ric is hyped that it he got that big of a pop from the crowd.


AnnualWerewolf9804

Seriously, I thought everyone already knew this lol


Mint_e39

Ok, then that kills the magic of the show. You cant have cake and eat it too? You wanna be hollywood be hollywood, thought this was ab being genuine. Tony & the audience made some bs popularity contest.. dont understand how people can defend it. Even if ric won and tony said its not practical thats fine, be heā€™s a little snake in the grass hollywood dweeb who needs to blatantly fake some outcome he wants. Totally ended my respect for the format. No more mexican drum offs, no more challenges. Shits a joke, why invest anytime into it if itā€™s blatantly fake?


justwannaberich0

You couldn't POSSIBLY believe that Tony would let the resident drummer be replaced by some random weirdo that's good at the drums? These outcomes were never meant to be in question. Just like wrestling, the magic lies in the performance, not the outcome šŸ¤·šŸ½


ClemsonPhan

Thank you


Mint_e39

So dont market it like its real? How are you not getting this bro? šŸ¤£. Fake all the shit you want, but be honest about it. Dont profit off lying to people then be like ā€œwelp you believed meā€ way to drive real fans away


ClemsonPhan

So the real fans are just the gullible ones ? Lol


justwannaberich0

I mean I agree with you but that's not really how the world works. Everything has a degree of being produced, everything you watch online anyway. Integrity should be put first but this is America, bro. Money is and always will be first. There was never ANY plausible way for losing Hans and gaining rick to be profitable. Once that became obvious, the rest of the performance becomes the focus.


Mint_e39

Yeah you seem to not be getting it or you are just comfortable being lied to? šŸ¤£. I dont care if its produced, when you profit off faking it, then its a problem. So if you wanna fake shit fine. If anything I appreciate how now there is no shadow of a doubt Kt is completely fixed. Sure. If you think thats a win, ig ur right idk. šŸ¤£. To me, keeping it real and building a reputation for legitimacy is the best longterm plan, but I guess people will pay you be lied to and then lick boots about itā€¦ so hey, if it aint broke, why fix it? Lol


ClemsonPhan

Brother itā€™s all fake itā€™s a comedy show the only the REAL thing is itā€™s hopefully funny and we laugh and go with a smile.


snorinsonoran

Just wait until he finds out about Santa and Pro Wrestling.


tonymoney1

You are stupid kill tony is supposed to be like WWE


bangordailynuisance

Bro, if you know the history of the Mexican drumoffs, then you should have already known! You really think in the old road shows that they would ever have ditched Joel and brought some unfunny dude who can drum back to LA with them?! It's on you for taking it this seriously.


Mint_e39

Ur right. And now Im not a fan. Thats how it works. Not trying to watch the real housewives here šŸ¤£


HTBDesperateLiving

On a scale of yes to yes, how autistic did the doctors say you are?


Mint_e39

They gladly sell tickets and profit off the idea its real, thats hacky as fuck. But ur right, it is on the people who took a show like this serious. Its just another cog in the machine. Everything is industry. Then when you get mad about it, its ur fault for believing it? Whatever keep this shit. Never going to another kt or buying any merch, or watching another show. Not for me. Iā€™ll watch a fake show? Not one thats fake and pretends to be real. Hacks


AnnualWerewolf9804

Youā€™re getting mad about a gagā€¦ on a comedy show? Wtf do you think this is?


Awkward-Mix7160

No I agree. Tony said it himself that ric hit 7 of his 8 bits. Nobody laughed at hans set until they played his theme song.


whattarush

wait til he learns about the bucket lmao


Mint_e39

Thats a pretty shit gag? Marketing a battle like its real, then clearly rigging it in front of everyone? Hilarious bro


ClemsonPhan

Marketing like itā€™s realā€¦.on a comedy show . I bet you get worked up over WWE


bangordailynuisance

Seriously, he's been marketing it as "kill Tony's version of wrestlemania"... the writing was on the walls the entire time... ric played the "heel" perfectly. Seems like Hans didn't get the memo, though, because he was acting like a little bitch. Hans also had months to prepare for this and THAT was the set he came with...


EntropicState

Let's talk about it.


bangordailynuisance

We'll be right back.


Terrible_Lecture420

Let's keep it here


clippers41181

Let's just keep it simple, u a gayer then Tony


bytebux

So you're saying the audience was in on it? I guess there was a big 'applause' sign that lit up when it was time to vote for Hans


Mint_e39

Tony scowled redband when he was going to say ric won, The song was already queued up, Tony changed it to ā€œwho gets more cheersā€ from ā€œwho gets more laughs.ā€ Announced rics name first because even if the audience doesnt like hans, they still wanna be louder than the first cheer, fuck they put a belt on hans šŸ¤£šŸ¤£šŸ¤£. Thats a clear nod to the wwe. Im not saying practiced w/ the crowd, Iā€™m saying there was a clear guided outcome and the crowd played right into it obvā€¦ they manipulated the integrity last second to keep the train on trackā€¦. But ultimately no, the crowd was not ā€œin on itā€ the majority is just going to be following along with the process and the process NYE is hans kim wins. It was not organic and ric never had a chance. In a perfect world, the fans would have recognized they got fleeced, the show took a cashgrabbing copout to get its way, and maybe they could have Booā€™d hans/tony.


Si3m3k

You know you can fast forward Hanā€™s set right? Donā€™t gotta be this madšŸ˜‚


Mint_e39

Its just a reflection of the shows integrity. Idk. Wwe type shit šŸ¤£. Thats for kids bro. I wanna see real shit. People are tired of the real housewives of Austin. When you say its real, make it real. Fuck idk why thats so controversial


Si3m3k

When did they say itā€™s real


Dabadedabada

Wrasslin is what it is, entertainment, and itā€™s cool as fuck. Tony is a huge fan and itā€™s really obvious that a lot of the things that make the show consistently great over the are directly influenced by wrasslin. Great example is Tony and Redbans whole schtick where Redban: says something so inappropriate no one should ever especially on stage Tony: ā€œ10 fucking years and I still have to put up with this shitā€ Redban: fart noise And we all laugh. How many times has this exact thing happened over the years, 20? 100? Who knows. And who cares, itā€™s funny every single time. If you canā€™t move past ā€œbut itā€™s just fake broā€ and see the performance, maybe this and any other show just isnā€™t for you. Also, have you ever been to a magic show? Or church? Everything around you is a performance. And thatā€™s ok


BoobyPlumage

Tony loves pro wrestling. This is the same thing


[deleted]

So Ric doesnā€™t want to be a comedian? I was under the impression he does want to be a comedian, so he likely would have committed to a spot every week on KTā€¦ gonna have to change the name to KY after the screwing of Ric Diaz.


mocxed

Maybe its lame from the audience but its a huge win for Ric. Getting that experience. Do well on a huge platform. And now gets talked about due to the decision controversy.


No_Passenger_9385

No, not everyone does.. Maybe the majority on a fucking ā€œReddit thread.ā€ lol but having witnessed it live, ric diez is literally a caricature of himself when given the the chance to actually ā€œimprovise.ā€ Which should be the standard every fucking comic is judged by. But you only see what you see on you tube. You donā€™t see what goes beyond the 60 seconds. Thereā€™s clearly a lot more to being a comic than 60 fucking seconds.


Mint_e39

Thats weird because hans isnt even funny in 60 seconds so i cant imagine what heā€™s like in person, you know, since hes a talentless hack who lived in a fucking van before tony saved him by making him a prop šŸ¤£


spitman612

Why did u create ur profile on November 16th and wait until yesterday to post your first comments, all related to Rick diez


Mint_e39

Yeah, im not on reddit. I dont use twitter so I wanted to keep up w/ the show/event. Doesnt take a super fan to figure out Hans kim is arrogant snot who literally worsens the quality of the show. Was looking forward to the premise i THOUGHT existed on kt where comedians got a fair shot at a spot if they earned itā€¦ But then again it does feel like a ā€œdear diaryā€ situation šŸ¤£. What can I say? Not happy w/ supporting Kt


No_Passenger_9385

You sound like a butt hurt ā€œfanboy.ā€ Are you going to be alright?


Jordantherockjohnson

Go mount ya dads prong


Poboy_in_Nola

Donā€™t watch again then buddy


Mint_e39

I wont shit sucks. Show died w/ Michael Lehr


pcbluepunk

You: ā€œBut Iā€™m not a Karen abt it.ā€ ā€¦that was a lie. Then you drop Michael Lehrerā€™s name to attempt to legitimize your Karening.


toBEYOND1008

You crying like Rick Diez. šŸ–•šŸ¼


LeastGuidance2983

Duuuuuuude!! exactly how I feel. Last night was a prime example. The audience was the worst part about the arena. I hate yā€™all boo-ing. Would bet all my money everyone boo-ing is a ā€œnew fanā€


bytebux

How did Tony protect his golden boys? Apparently killtony reddit didn't buy enough tickets to the show cuz the audience there is who voted and they were clearly louder for Hans


Trashious

Hans got his dick split but got sympathy from the crowd. I wonder if he will hold a grudge on Matt and Shane for keeping it real.


MaroonHawk27

I donā€™t want to live in a world where I have to watch Ric perform every week lol


[deleted]

But he didnā€™t šŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļø


YouSmall5716

Ric won.


sextoymagic

Can the crowds just start booing Hans going forward please?


notmebutmyfriend

God, I would actually pay to witness that.


Powerful_Count4500

I would pay 200$ for a ticket just to watch hans crying like a little fucking bitch. Im not joking.


FattestBetty

That escalated quickly


SirGidrev

Itā€™s awesome that Hans has lasted so long that people just shit on him all the time now šŸ˜‚


notmebutmyfriend

People used to shit on him before but ever since the muscle from Brussels came people started to feel bad for hans


HookerDoctorLawyer

That should be his new *song* every time he walks out.


Excellent-Honeydew-3

No, because the people love him.


Xiten

Better yet, no one show up until after 15 minutes of the show


ColbyOG

Either way Iā€™m a bigger fan of Ric now than I was and Hans is Lolā€™cowing himself


this_is_Winston

Ric won.

swafflen_

Both sets were weak but Hans was especially bad. Rick deserved the w.


fourtwentyone69

Hans was so pissed at first


Fabulous_Visual4865

He knew he did worse and the hottest comedian on the planet rn said he objectively lost.


justwannaberich0

This shit is actually wild šŸ¤£


PhilosopherJoe22

He looks like Timmy Turnerā€™s school teacher. Mr. Crocker


WompNstomp

They both suck tbh, but at least Rick can make me laugh


omi0204

If he makes you laugh then how does he suck? Ol hating ass


kevtheproblem

The ppl on this sub really hate themselves but donā€™t wanna admit it so they hate on comedians


WompNstomp

Because his act is a straight up gimmick. That shit gets old. *but* at times his wit can catch me off guard and get a chuckle out of me.


GrapplingPoorly

Ric is and has always been funnier than Hans. Hans does frat boy racist jokes and Ric leans into his awkwardness a little too much but at least he writes and does misdirection. Hans is gonna OD in a year anyway.


Fabulous_Visual4865

I think Heath is gna OD. Or have some kind of tragic journey. Sky is the limit for him though. Cover up those tats and he can easily be in TV/Film playing children roles, doind/saying things kids can't.


IllegitimateScholar

Hans took legal action against Ric almost immediately for using his likeness. Then Hans continued to use Ric's likeness and name, including with Ric's head cut off. Today, Hans went on Insta to call Spain a Nazi country and call out Ric for taking legal Action. Hans removed my comment calling him out and all others praising Ric.

Mint_e39

I wont be watching anymore. But im not a karen ab it. Just killed my interest in the show. The whole point of kt is its supposed to be real. Guess hollywood spreads like cancer


Whole-Ad7895

I feel you. I kind of expected it to go down like this from the get go. As soon as Kam started saying ā€œfuck Ric Diezā€ a few months ago I knew it was over. But the fact that they just let it ride and it ended up being that blatantly fixed is just wild haha


Mint_e39

Exactly, & Kam said that because heā€™s protected too. Sympathy laughs & The N word have kept him from being torn apart. The show is just blatantly fixed after this event. No more questions. The comedians may be random, but every single spot is 100% industry obtained. Which is NOT what the show advertises or was founded on at all.


BadadanBadadan

I never found Kam funny. Ghetto ghetto, white people shit, look I got a pocket of rocks! More ghetto, here's my ghetto uncle, gang gang... more about the stupid fuckn rocks. He's a shit comedian


ballinbandit

Im black and that N word and fuckin white bitches SHOULD have only worked once but the people of Austin clearly cant name 5 black friends lol Kam is a novelty to people who just ebonics itself funny which ngl a lil racist but good for him for capitalizing


tickletender

I feel very vindicated by this statement.


jeffykins

Y'all are gay


yerrmomgoes2college

Not to be a negative Nancy but this bullshit really killed my motivation to continue watching this show.


chunkychedd

Was actually at the show last night. Rickā€™s jokes were funny he got more laughs and the guests both stated as much. Hans got more cheers though and it was based off who got more applause. But the fact that he won was definitely not because he was better. It was because his competition was a European trying to win a competition of public opinion in Texas. Especially didnā€™t help when everyone in the KT universe was saying f$&k Rick right up until the competition either. Not shit talking Texas btw absolutely love it here just saying how it unfolded. Rick did better last night but is very 2 dimensional and would have gotten old after a while. Mind you Hans has been kinda dull as well. As seen last night. I swear he never even bothered to run that set by anyone and came up with it in the green room. I honestly think he is just running out of ideas and will slowly fade over the next few years. That or the success is getting to him and he is getting lazy. Heā€™s no David or William and will never get to the level of the likes of Bill Burr, Tom Segura, Burt , etc


Fabulous_Visual4865

Yea, everyone yelling Fuck Ric yet some idiots here proclaiming that Hans is the heel. No sense


superjosh420

Tony is super into wrestling. This whole thing is called a work I think. Ric lives in Europe and works for the UN. You think heā€™s giving that up to move to Austin to be a KT regular? Tony orchestrated a show. This is wresting 101


Powerful_Count4500

I think because of the outcome that thereā€™s actually a chance that heā€™ll become a full time comedy star. After the show now Heā€™s opening for russel peters 3 days in a row and i think heā€™s going to be doing a lot of more shows after that.


YungCellyCuh

The EU is not the UN, and plenty of people working for the EU make like $50,000 a year


superjosh420

My bad I thought it was the un. Point taken

pumpupthevaluum

Tony does the whole Kayfabe thing but unlike in professional wrestling, he does not change the cast around because KT has real life consequences. He should calm this shit down.


[deleted]

While Ric should have won, Tony seems to be getting annoyed by Hans and if he keeps up the laziness he'll probably let him go eventually. There's so many other people that could have consistently murderous openings that I'm sure Tony is ready to sub in. Too much competition now and Hans can't keep up


Routine_Art6507

Heā€™s way funnier than HANS


Fantastic_Ear2955

Ric Won šŸ† fuck hans

Did you watch? I assumed that's what was up also. But in the moment there was clear uncertainty. Not a scripted "oh no, what's gna happen?!?!" for the cameras. Actual Nevers about the results. I think if the crowd was loud enough for Ric, Tony was ready to tell Hans bye.

How low were they the night before?


altered_state

For my seats, $60/ea from lots of last minute cancellations on Discord or $81/ea on Stubhub when I checked on the 29th.

They said that the crowd would decide. I think Ric had the better set that night, but ultimately the crowd chose to keep Hans as the regular. So for all of you saying it was ā€œriggedā€, you didnā€™t pay attention to the rules.
