Leaving work tonight and a patient's boyfriend was in the waiting room talking to the security guard and reception clerk when the subject came up about wrestling.
This guy warmed my heart.
He said Shane McMahon still owns WCW, and that the GOVERNMENT wouldn't let Vince have a monopoly over the wrestling business. That's why Vince let Shane "buy" WCW. Also, he couldn't get why Brock Lesnar doesn't want to fight as often as he used to. Even after I explained that he makes $5 million a year for 20 dates.
He also thought Daniel Bryan sucked.
Anybody else had an encounter with a mark lately?

I go to most local shows and once or twice a year i still hear about the Big Show being Andre's Kid and carrying on the legacy until his son is old enough to wrestle.
I also recently "learned" that the Two-Undertaker/Warrior story has now spread to Kane. Twice now I had people tell me the reason Kane is back in the mask is because it's a new wrestler.

As annoying as I find smarks who take all newz as gospel truth, I just cannot talk to marks. About 30 seconds into conversations with them I always feel like asking them how they honestly believe that everything they see on screen is 100% legit.

I met a Mark the other day, too. I went to shake his hand and he picked me up, slammed me on the ground, and yelled, "That's what I do!"

^ I had a similar situation the other day too. But this Mark didnt even say anything, he just looked at me, rolled his eyes behind his head, flipped me over, and smashed my head on the floor.
He did mumble something though like..."Rest..in..Peeeaceeee". Weird shit.

In my experience it's usually long time older fans that say this stuff.
When I get the "ultimate warrior died because of tight tassels/kane has been played by 20 people/big show is andre's son" and all that stuff...it isn't often that it's from some young person.
Usually it'll be a guy that's 50 years old.

Maybe he was trolling you since he sensed you were a smark

I always hate when they try to argue for like a minute with their crap. Stuff like "Kane used to be Nailz, you know"

I also met a Mark. He posed in front of a mirror while Teddy Long orgasmed over his yummy, delicious abs and called him the Reflection of Perfection.

I was once talking to some co-workers about how I was sick and tired of carrying the load for the company and that night, I was going to refuse to do the job. Of course I was just talking smack but I looked over and this guy was taping his fists and giving me the death stare. I later found out his name was Mark.

I met a Mark too. He said "BLACK, WHITE, ASIAN, FEEL THE VIBRATION!", then backflipped away and started shadow boxing. Might strange stuff.

The Mark I ran into was in some kind of fake ass biker gang.
I got hit with a hammer.

I had a dude my father's age tell me that Ric Flair is the true owner of ECW (back when it was on Syfy).

Don't confuse trolls with marks.
