The 5 Eternal Lies in the WWE

  1. It’s all FAKE!!!

Celebrities are a common go-to in legitimizing wrestling

The WWE was magnetic back in the 70s and the 80s. The public found the almost myth-like sensationalized battles between gargantuan gladiators irresistible. Until the 90s came along and the bubble burst.

Amidst the steroid controversy, Vince McMahon was forced to admit that wrestling was “scripted” and just like that, the expressions changed from spell-bound to furious. The WWE were forced down the rabbit-hole and they broke through it with a roar. The Attitude Era is just one of the results of that evolution.
