Question I've always wondered: why do you guys pay so much attention to these sites, newsletters and hotlines when you know 80% of the stuff is pure crap?
And even when it IS truthful, who really gives a damn that CM Punk is in the doghouse or that Umaga botched a move? Who truly cares??

And even when it IS truthful, who really gives a damn that CM Punk is in the doghouse or that Umaga botched a move? Who truly cares?? I'd use the term "truthful" kinda loosely here. Most of the stuff that's on these sites is either completely made up, or just complete speculation/guesswork. If you guess enough, you're bound to be correct once in a while. When the newz sites guess correctly, I'd hardly call it "truth". It was just a lucky guess. As the saying goes.......Even blind squirrels can find nuts once in a while. |

I don't actually visit these sites (unless it's a link posted here). I read all the newz once it gets forwarded to these forums. Some of it is indeed crap, but every once in a while you get a story like MVP/HHH/Screwdriver that makes you smile  |

Apparently a lot of people buy into that crap because it comes from "reliable" websites. It doesn't matter if the paragraphs seem written by a 12 years old youtube ranter, and that the opinions ARE those of a 12 years old youtube ranter... I think it's the Dirtsheet Syndrome, the idea of knowing something that many people/fans don't. The priceless chance of telling your not-so-smark friends "you know... that happened because ____ pissed off _____ backstage"... I've never understood the appeal of reading (or paying to read) made-up stories, conspiracies and speculations, and taking them as Gospel-truth. |

I take a certain amount of amusement from the fact that a lot of fans believe that such news reports are gospel truth when pro wrestling is based on story lines and worked athletic displays.
