Eh, those ones aren't nearly as subtle as the good ones, in terms of the visibility of the text.

you don't understand, triple H is already stunned by the rock, that when he is flipped by ronda, he is super stunned and does additional backflips to indicate his injured state. it's all kayfabe

It's gotta be hard to be a real fighter and not accidentally break someone's arm when you're play fighting.

It's also really hard to be a huge beef monster and not hurt eachother while play fighting, which is probably why they practice a lot.

I actually have a lot of respect for pro wrestlers even if I'm not into their craft, the poo poo they do is very demanding. That guy just seemed to be having a fit though.

So just to be clear. In WWE/WCW everyone involved is totally aware that it is fake but is practicing some doublethink called kayfabe and simultaneously believes it is real? What a fascinating subculture.

yeah, pretty much. they're just "always" acting. they kept a pretty tight lid on the whole matter for a while, but i believe it's pretty much just an open secret now because the fans don't care and are willing to suspend their disbelief to see oiled up men throw each other through tables. it is pretty fascinating: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kayfabe EDIT: Triple H broke kayfabe a few months ago after he made an 8-year-old kid cry and felt bad about it: http://www.foxsports.com/buzzer/story/wwe-triple-h-breaks-character-012315 Sally has a new favorite as of 07:08 on Mar 31, 2015 |

What a fascinating subculture. No, the Today it's just straight-up gone. In the episode of Stone Cold Steve Austin's podcast that had 13-time world champion and current WWE chief operating officer Paul "HHH" "Hunter Hearst Helmsley" "The Game Triple H" "The Cerebral Assassin" Levesque, Austin opened the show asking about how the fans poo poo all over the finish to this year's Royal Rumble and how hard it was to book a storyline when the fans knew so much about how wrestling works and what goes on in the locker room. These days they count on the vast majority of the fans to have willing suspension of disbelief because wrestling, and we do. Because wrestling. Also, WCW has been gone for 14 years.
