Telling them it’s fake, is an absolute slap in the face.

Pretty sweet, considering it is the anniversary this week of Dr. D slapping the piss out of John Stossel.

The article about this one did mention a staffer called 'Kay Fabe', which might be all you need to know. The one with Grayson/Knight just felt like regular Australian breakfast TV, so I could buy that as the hosts just being clueless.
If this is a work, I WANT this face on WWE TV weekly. For years, the WWE has been looking for a natural looking and sounding heel. Here he is in all his glory. They have not had a true heel announcer since Cole was forced to turn face.

Telling them it’s fake, is an absolute slap in the face. Dr. D was a complete dickhead for assaulting John Stossel like that. You don't get to assault a reporter simply because they asked if wrestling is fake. You don't get to assault a reporter for any reason quite frankly.

Why do people think calling wrestling fake is some kind of "gotcha!", it always makes them look really, really dim that they think people watch it thinking it's real. Wrestling fans can be stupid, some of the stupidest on the planet...but behind non wrestling fans. It's genuinely unique the ignorance that surrounds wrestling, suppose that's not a surprise because it's such a carny industry and there's nothing really like it, but jesus.

As admirable as Theory's response seems to be, I would very much love to a) have said reporter ask that question of someone like Dwayne Johnson (which he would never do), or b) have the response a long, articulate and insightful critique of modern news media and that reporter for wasting his potential and career prospects, and his and his editors'/producers' time and goodwill, by starting an interview about an uncoming _major_ sports-entertainment event with a stupid, bad-faith question. I'd probably draw in his colleagues in that newsroom to give them "Journalism 101" about being intellectually humble and curious, about doing necessary research before going into _any_ interview about the subject, and about being courageous enough to turn down assignments, especially if you have no interest in the story and no desire to learn about it. Like, absolutely make him question his vocational choices and his life's purpose.
