Why don't wrestling fans try to maim or kill the wrestlers anymore? Just because kayfabe has been "exposed" doesn't mean people still don't get emotionally invested. I just found out my hometown used to bring squirt guns filled with Draino and shoot them at the eyes of Midsouth heels back in the 80s. The closest thing we've had to anything like that was that retarded monkey who tackled Seth a few years ago
Jim Cornette oversells the issue because he was frequently targeted by fag bashing mobs of southerners. Wrestling was tangential to his experiences.
>>19643239so edgy
>>19643239Every fan is a smark now.
>>19643239This is what broke kayfabe for me. Kerry von Erich was getting stomped by some baddie and a fan comes out of the crowd with a large chain to save von Erich and the police grabbed him before he could do anything. It wasn't a work, just some idiotic fan. Why did the police grab him? He was only trying to help. My young mind clicked and figured it out.
>>19643239The times have changed you zoomer.
>>19643395You watched the Von Erichs wrestle live? You must be a massive unc bro
>>19643239Weird how all of that shit exists in stories told by boomers and instantly stopped as soon as shows were actually being recorded. Kind of like how every old faggot who likes cars could do a sub 6 second pull with their five speed, low displacement shitbox running on street tires. I don't doubt that Cornette was there for a couple crowds that got out of control, especially in Louisiana, but he's as full of shit as he accuses Bruce Prichard of being when he starts saying they were doing $30,000 gates and causing riots five times a week.
>>19643480Yeah I think there's just as much kayfabed about backstage stories & bar brawls and shit as much as we see on TV, if not more so
>>19643261>>19643480these
>>19643239I replaced all the hot dogs at an AEW show with dildos and they ate them up
>>19643395Because the crazed fans aren't part of the show, even if it were a "real fight" the crazies would still get hauled off because they're not supposed to be there.
>>19643239What do you mean? There are still old men out there trying to stab Ole.
>>19644667That was Kyle Fletcher, don’t blame the trannies in the crowd
Draino sounds like it would be too thick for a squirt gun
>>19646294A classic leftist tactic.
>>19643239Idk sorry
>>19643239incidents still happen sometimes, mostly at indie shows. I was at a JCW show when a dumb bitch in the audience grabbed one of the wrestlers and got slapped across the face for her trouble. You can see it on episode 37 or 38 of lunacy, can't remember which.
>>19646145this, they weren't licensed by the state athletic commission
Just look at the limp wristed trannies at the shows and you got your answer
