WWE: Fact and fantasy

[COLOR=Blue]I like watching wrestling, but some times, the line between realite and fantasy is blurred. I know some things. Like the WWE has writers, and few of the wrestlers are actully cool people in real life. Like take Andre the Giant. He was a very kind, gentle man in real life. (Except once when he was arrested for assult and battery. But that was just once.) I hear Kane is pretty cool too. And the wrestlers are mostly actors/stuntmen. Some of them are really bad actors, though. Like Luthor Raymes, he's awful. What's real? What's made up? Is Kurt Angle really a ragiing egomaniac? Is Heidenrich really insane? Is JBL really a huge jerk? Etc. I know John Cena (He's a local boy!) and Eddie Gurrario are cool guys in real life. So's Undertaker. His real name's Mark. What's real? What's fake?

"KAMEHAMEHA!"

The Monster, do you mind giving to credit to the website you apparently copied that from? It took me a while to figure out why there were question marks at the end of each sentence, but then I realized they had to be on a list that probably started with a phrase like "Did you know..." So it's obvious you didn't write that yourself, unless it's from your own website.

the thought that anyone would actually believe the fabricated stories and ridiculous fights that take place in wrestling amazes me. Do you really think all those chick wrestlers just randomly become attracted to Vince McMahon and start humping him? And if you throw someone on top of the table it will just break, and the person will get back up and keep fighting? No, its fake. Its a TV show for our entertainment able to be cancelled at any time. As "entertaining" as some people say it is, I'd rather not spend my time watching men in tight shiny speedos bounce off ropes and try their best to lay on top of the other guy for at least 3 seconds.
