It's one thing that the wrestlers and fans have in common.

I went to a professional wrestling match years ago, and the people in the audience actually believe it is real.
I'm pretty sure 98% of the audience know that Pro-Wrestling is entertainment and staged. That, and more than just "rednecks" watch it.

The whole "PPL THINK THIS IS REAL" stuff is from 1990. Today, everyone and their mom knows this.



BTW, I think this gimmick is BRILLIANT! I wish WWE would use Roman Reigns as an extreme left winger.

Hilarious. His interview on NPR was fantastic. He's not taunting anyone, but rather has come up with a great shtick as wrestling bad-guy.

-People who claim that "dumb redneck" wrestling fans think that pro-wrestling is "real".

-Same people who are triggered by the Progressive Liberal wrestler, while not knowing what a "gimmick" is and think that the wrestler's character is real.

Never change, CD-Political Board.

A hell of a promotions man.

I have to give him credit, he is generating press.

They should have him lose a match and blame it on Putin.

My vote is that he's an opportunist looking to make a buck and gain some adoration from a segment of our populace that is feeling oh-so-alienated right now. Whatever floats his boat.

Ha, I wonder if the ACLU threatened the t-shirt silk screener who refused to print that Hillary shirt...
Get a grip. It's WRESTLING. It's fake, it's comedy, each wrestler has their own character. Are you new to the world of wrestling? You seem to be the one taking it too seriously.
