It's rubbish.

A bunch of actors pretending to hurt each other.
 


Never watched it, never will. People fighting or pretending to fight doesn't interest me in the least.
 


I turned off the SiFi channel when it programmed WWE. SiFi should be a clue.
 


It's weird..
 


Pointless and immature. Almost as useful as YouTube/Yahoo comments.

I've never been a big fan of it, but I can't fault it for being "Fake". Almost Everything else on TV other than a few documenteries and certain channels are fake as well. Why would I fault them for being fake also? If you enjoy wrestling, then by all means keep watching. Just like if you enjoy shows such as the sopranos or army wives then keep watching the drama. I wouldn't want someone to tell me my favorite Sci-Fi shows are terrible just because they don't like them.

I like the way a friend of mine puts it. "It's a big Soap Opera for guys!"

The fault had been in the misleading or untruthful claims that it was real. I had heard that the WWF had a few years ago admitted, finally, that it was scripted. I don't know if the WWE has yet.

Ahem...

Isn't the WWE the rebranded WWF after some issues with the World Wide Fund for Nature?

Something like that. But I only treat them as separate companies because of owner changeovers and format differences.
