Not one of the Masked Man's best efforts but as always, worth a read.

Most enlightening to me was the realization that Cena vs. Show really is in a sense WWE trying to recapture Hogan vs. Andre.

Also it amuses me to read all those stories about 50 years of reporters trying to "expose" wrestling when the fanbase already understood what it was, and then to contrast that with modern wrestling media so desperately trying to find reality in what happens, to the point where in some way people are more easily worked now than ever before.
