Fantasy Fight Club: Bill & Ted vs. Wayne & Garth
Welcome back to Fictional Fight Club, where fictional characters FIGHT TO THE DEATH! In this edition, we have two dynamic duos facing off against each other in the battle for radicalness. In one corner, we have two time-traveling best friends (deleted comma) who will do anything to make their adventures “excellent” — Bill & Ted. In the other corner, we have basement-show-hosts-turned-mainstream-sensations. who are here to rock your world — Wayne & Garth. Let’s get ready to rumble!
Starting off with Bill & Ted, they are just two dudes trying to start their band, Wyld Stallyns, and prevent Ted from being shipped off to military school. Needing to pass their history final, they use a phone booth to go back in time to interact with the greatest people in history. Having the power to time travel is a great skill, especially for getting advice for your history final.
Moving on, we have Wayne & Garth. They started off from humble beginnings, having a public–access TV show in their basement. When they get their big break, they discover the highs and lows of mainstream television. But with their goofy antics, they got their show and a lot of memorable allies to help them in the future.
With these two duos, the loveable idiot factor goes above and beyond. We’re dealing with time travel and the power to break the fourth wall. Both things would destroy the world as we know it. But if they went head-to-head, I believe that Bill & Ted will take the win. First off, they can go to any point in time, including the future. Fun fact about these two: they are worshipped in the future. Even if Wayne and Garth took them down, they can change the events of time.
Even if Bill & Ted annihilate the Wayne’s World bros, Wayne & Garth have an ace up their sleeve. They can manipulate the audience. The fourth wall is a powerful weapon, and Wayne & Garth could potentially make Bill & Ted come off as the worst people in the world. The only problem with that is I don’t think Wayne & Garth would stoop that low.
According to a local ’90s legend, my mom, Bill & Ted will win, she states, “because Bill & Ted were prepared to take on any challenge that came at them through all of time. Wayne & Garth just wanted to party on.” And honestly, I couldn’t agree more. But don’t fear Wayne & Garth fans, because I don’t think Bill & Ted would kill them. They probably would give them a primetime slot for Bill & Ted TV. I personally want to watch Wayne’s World in a Bill & Ted future.
And that will do it for another rendition of Fictional Fight Club. Tune in next time to see who will be fighting to the death!
