How The Oldest Wrestling Lie JUST Got Exposed
You are going to keep watching because you don't even know how to make a decision with your own personal time, much less accurately make a decision on the quality of a pro wrestling show. Triple H said so, six years and three million viewers ago.
In a recent After The Bell podcast appearance, Road Dogg referred to the fans - the paying audience! - as ostensible dumbsh*ts who simply cannot grasp the arcane machinations of the pro wrestling process. What the "fans" don't "get," he said, is that there is a way of doing things. A talent might reveal themselves to be a loose cannon and go off script if not explicitly told what to say word-for-word, as if everybody in the WWE system isn't sh*t-scared of saying or doing the wrong thing. But I wouldn't know that. I'm not there.

What those in power are telling you is that they don't like you engaging. They don't like you analysing. They are telling you that their opinion is, by default, more informed than yours because they are involved in the business. You are a mark. As a mark, you are to have no input on the way this works. You have no business in this business. To get in it, you must work your way up from job guy or photographer to booker or top star. You must be entrusted with its secrets to become a respected player. You must study under its respected elders to work out the first clue how to do it.
