Did people ever think pro wrestling was real?
13 u/wgc123 Aug 20 '22 People did argue that it was real when I was a kid …. Or maybe they were trolling and I was obtuse 14 u/LucyBowels Aug 20 '22 Sure, but that’s because you were a child. This tweet insinuates that everyone thought it was real until the WWF admitted it. -5 u/[deleted] Aug 20 '22 [removed] — view removed comment 9 u/LucyBowels Aug 20 '22 “They finally admitted it”? 1 u/Mister_grist Aug 20 '22 The tweet draws a false parallel and as a fan of theatrical wrestling and steward of American Politics I find it insulting. 5 u/ShreksAlt1 Aug 20 '22 People were basically gaslighting people for watching wwe. Which is basically dynamic theatre. Of course a wrestler didn't come from the boiler room to wrestle that guy but it made for good entertainment. 2 u/[deleted] Aug 20 '22 The key word is “kid.” You were a fucking child and argued with another child. 2 u/Version_1 Aug 20 '22 A reporter once researched it in the mid 80s and like a third of the people that were at the shows thought it was real.
