It's hilarious. I don't agree with bringing back Brock. But I'm also not the slightest bit surprised. This is the same company who sent Vince out to the ring the first chance they could after these allegations came out. This is the same company that not only never actually investigated a single Speaking Out case but seemingly aided their talent in how to go about trying to silence things legally as well. They never wavered in who they kept around or not based on that. Matt Riddle got fired for other shit. JD is still around and pushed to this day. God knows how many others. And this is just in the past 5 years
Point being, no shit. It's wrestling. You're full on retarded if you're looking at it or a company as some kind of moral compass. While wrestling itself is a morality play it's also an entirely morally bankrupt industry. From the top all the way to the bottom. It's a form of entertainment built entirely on deception and lying to it's audience by presenting something fake as being real. I could go on and on

name one entertainment industry that doesnt do this

Typical movies and tv don't present themselves as real dipshit. There are credits. Everyone knows they're actors. That's why there's the weird separation where you wouldn't walk up to Michael Keaton and be like 'hey Batman' where how many people walk up to the Undertaker back when and know him as nothing but that. Hollywood doesn't have kayfabe. Not only is it not industry taboo to see two actors talking together but it'd actually be really weird if they kept their roles up beyond what was filmed. There's reality tv sure. But that didn't come until way later

Within the confines of the program they do sure. But no one is watching whatever the latest capeshit is and being told it's real beyond the movie they're watching. How autistic are you to not be able to grasp the difference between that and the way wrestling is (or at least was) presented?
Yeah they're extremely retarded. If you haven't moved on to TV/Movie kino then you're lost. If you unironically use Cagematch your life is basically worthless, no joke. Interact and analyze superior media.

What tv shows (non-reality) or movies are out there trying to convince people they're actually real? Even the Blair Witch Project which I will say went as far as to create its own real world kayfabe eventually caved and told everyone it was all fake. Are you like lost on the concept of what happens IN the movie/show itself? Because obviously yeah. But I'm talking about where these films and shows exist in the real world. Adam Sandler isn't doing media rounds right now trying to sell the Happy Gilmore reboot as if it's non-fiction
>>18452074
they are not actively passing it off as real, nobody here disagreed on that
but film making is a bit deeper than the actual stories - thats where the subtext comes in, the subconscious and, sorry to bring it up again, verisimilitude
