Why do Americans in Republican states love WWE so much...

[apalisoc_9]

Any cultural reason why they love watching fake drama and wrestling? They even take lenghts explaining why this guy will win and evaluate their technical abilities as if that would matter?

They know its fake and not true but why do they continue to act like its justifyable..just like invading a country with zero WMD and lying but somehow justifying it and acting like they have the moral ground.

Blacks and Hispanics both make up a significant percentage of the WWE's fanbase:

Also, the most popular markets for the WWE include liberal cities like Memphis, New Orleans, Birmingham, and St. Louis.

Why do people like watching marvel/DC movies and talking about how two characters would fair in a fight between one another? Don't they know it's fake?

People pretend WWE is real because it makes it more fun to watch and talk about, tbh. I haven't really watched in a long time, but last time I watched it was a very patriotic show so that may be why it's popular with the republican states.

LOLZY. I LOVE when people try and make fun of people who watch wrestling due to their own insecurities. It's no different than queermos that watch faggy movies like Starwars or Star Trek or gay comic movies. Or the faggots that play video games or any other faggot trend like Pokemon or anything you like that can be deemed faggy by anyone else.

It's all about the subjective suspension of disbelief that enables people to enjoy whatever it is they enjoy, you unmanly faggot man who is objectively insecure to the point he has to make a random thread to attack people who watch wrestling, which brings in over 60 million global viewers weekly. You can't even stereotype correctly. The NORTHEAST is the biggest hotbed of WWE fans in the nation, you twit.

Either way, OP is a faggot. Making fun of wrestling fans, or any fanbase of fake shit - movies, tv (I personally don't watch faggy Zombie shows or queer mideval type shit like GoT (see what I did there?)) etc. is for little kids, or dipshit faggots like Ap.

probably should let the forum pedo handle this one. He's a big fan. Avante

something about watching buff half naked dudes in their tight underwear grab on each other helps them relieve the tension of being a closet homo and having to slander queers all the time, tbh

lolzy??? Now that's some gay shit

Canada loves wrestling. As does Japan.

Story line is obviously fake. Impact of the actual event, real.

But, I think they affinity for the sport seems to resonate across a poor, and possibly uneducated demographic if I were to guess. I mean, when I was a kid I watched it, but not that I'm older I find it ridiculous. I don't dislike it, but I find it laughable.

By this logic, you should find movies ridiculous and laughable.

Back in the day the WWF was a Northeastern promotion based out of Connecticut and MSG. The red-state hillbillies who loved rasslin' were all about the old NWA, they had no use for the WWF.
