Watched a three part ID show on the true story behind the Iron Claw wrestling family.

A term was used that I had never heard of called kayfabe.

Translated that means professional wrestling is theater not contest which should come as no surprise to anyone with common sense.

That said, with the onslaught of professional gambling, I’m not sure that might be true in other sports as well.

Call me a cynic, but the dust-up occurring at the beginning of the season makes me think Caitlin and Angel doing a bit of kayfabe.

Although which one was the good guy and which was the bad guy might not be as clear as black and white or on the other hand maybe it is.

You are absolutely correct. No one watched or cared about the WNBA, now we have fabricated drama.

We have a heel and a face. The heel is cheating and beating up the fan favorite. The ratings go up

Before the season ends Caitlin will be hit over the head with a folding chair.
