Always fucked with it heavy. It's been really interesting watching it evolve from being about kayfabe to becoming more about the opposite: breaking said kayfabe.
Pro wrestling faced the very real threat of fading into obscurity if it continued to play its gimmicks with a straight face in the age of the digital highway that is the internet and social media - but they've done a shockingly good job at evolving; and circuits other than WWE keep the competition healthy.
It might not be ''real'' but it's not about how real it is per se, it's about the story telling. And wrestling has some transformative story telling at times when it bends fiction and reality - hell the UFC has been actively trying to become more and more like WWE in the past few years. Drama sells.
I'm very excited for 2027 because i'll finally get the chance to attend WrestleMania. Gonna be an insane show.
