I didn't realize Maxim was still around.

It must hurt that wrestling's more relevant than Maxim...well except for teenage boys who can't get online.

I think its more confusing considering they just had a photoshoot with Eva Marie, a WWE employee, as well as other former WWE divas in the past.

gawker.com/video-that-proves-pro-wrestling-is-fake-also-proves-it-1324515858I didn't know this particular video had such popularity but here is an article on another site talking about the same thing. This article is condescending or doesn't seem like it is. I had a subscription that I paid for back in 2009 and for some reason, I still get them in the mail every couple months. I've checked my bank account to make sure I'm not being charged and I haven't. They mostly go from mail box to trash can.

LOL at this topic.
It's hardly burying wrestling. It's a fun, tongue in cheek article "exposing" that wrestling is fake.
Some of y'all are too defensive.

Maxim is the TV 14 version of playboy.

I can't wait for Maxim's next piece of cutting edge journalism, telling us about this newfangled telephone gadget!

Wrestling was supposed to post a video on how irrelevant Maxim is, but Maxim used its backstage clout to block it.

Does anyone on this planet really give a two shits about Maxim anymore.

Did You Know: The amount of people who still think wrestling's real is vastly outnumbered by the amount of people who think the shopped to hell models in Maxim are real? Bonus points to those who think they can get them with the magazine's patented dating advice; smother yourself in Axe and act like an asshole.

Maxim, still thinking it's 2001 and they're still relevant.

What bugs me more than anything is just the laziness of it. For Maxim it doesn't really bother me at all since no one looks at that for the articles anyway. Gawker on the other hand is a website that is so far up it's own ass with ethics and muckraking journalism and blah blah blah that for them to have a piece on this video just comes off as really lazy.

Oh great. Some f**ker telling people wrestling is fake, like it's some big revelation.
They're all like that. Tell enough people you like wrestling, and you will certainly hit upon someone who will respond with something like "You know it's fake, right?"

Maybe they changed the text or something, but the gawker article was actually pretty respectful.
