Thats not what i said. The business has been given many black eyes and with good reason, but the legitimacy of the business itself and people calling it fake, then those same people will turn around and enjoy movies gives wrestling a stench even without all the other factors. Take out the drugs, take out the deaths, take out Benoit, cos your average joe six pack doesn't have a clue about those things, they only associate wrestling with being fake. And my argument to that is its no more fake then what you see in a movie, yet people don't go on about how movies are fake.

People are well aware that most movies and TV shows are fictitious. Wrestling sells itself as being something it's not. I, by the way, was a fan of this as a kid. It's hilarious watching grown men in their 20's, 30's & 40's carry on about it like it's life and death.

As I tell my wife it is "the Bold and the Beautiful" for men :roll
 
It sells itself as entertainment, hence the term ''Sports entertainment''. They've never sold themselves as a legit sport. If you're talking about how they sell themselves during a show, well naturally they have to portray what you're seeing is real, it wouldn't be much of a show if they were telling you what was really happening was scripted.

Should of said for his age haha, he is 56, looked pretty healthy for his age.
