2. "The Business/Our Industry"

When was the last time one of WWE's commentators said they were proud to be part of "the business" or "our industry"? It never happens, does it? They're much more prone to expressing their pride at being part of the WWE machine. This is a sneaky separation between pro wrestling and "Sports Entertainment".

Vinnie Mac doesn't see WWE as "the business". It's his business, yes, but it's not in the same ballpark as AEW, New Japan, ROH or any other wrestling set-up. They're in a different industry to him, or so he's claimed countless times over the years.

Hardly anyone buys it.
