    I used to say all the same until, likely related, the relatively recent growth of John Cena’s film career. We know wrestling is fake. We know Twoicide Squad is fake. That doesn’t stop me from talking about the cool things Peacemaker does, so why should I police other people talking about wrestling events? Plus, after seeing live wrestling, it’s genuinely entertaining to watch as a sports/dance event. Note: I have zero interest in mma/boxing/etc and really don’t watch sports anyway.

    People watch plays. People watch concerts. People watch sports. People watch wrestling. It’s just entertainment

        they had to legally do that actually, sports entertainment, so they wouldnt be subject to heavy regulation by a sports authority like with drug testing, its well known most of them are on peds, rock, cena(pretty obvious),etc

          Honestly had no idea, then again, wrestling is no where near my orbit. Even more reason to dislike “Professional” Wrestling.

        I’m not talking about what the individuals go on to say from their personal capacities. I’m talking about a reality TV show where men pretend to beat each other up. Or am I out of the loop and wrestlemania is now part of the campaign trail?

          Not saying its the same, or that your wrong. I just couldn’t help but think how that’s how Fox News can do what it does and is (at least was from what I remember) the highest rated channel in the US because its clearly not the news, it’s an entertainment program.

          Sorry if my brief comment lead you to believe otherwise.
