    Some people look down on WWE, I see it as a window on American culture. Even the lazy refrain: you know it’s not real right? Well read the allegations against McMahon with special attention to how he ran his enterprise, and say that again. It’s as obtuse as saying “you know movies aren’t real, right”? Wrasslin’ is like what would happen if an improv troupe went global. Just think of the talent that’s come out of it: legendary athletes, blockbuster actors, …POTUS.

    Instead of getting up early for Meet the Press, I stay up late for Monday night Raw.

      I mean - this ain’t about no wrasslin, this about corrupt-as-fuck fascists living above the law like the kings they believe themselves to be.

      As a Junkyard Dog man, I took that personally.
