#kayfabe
"Pro wrestling" is merely a morality play. Total kayfabe.

I personally have no issue breaking kayfabe to tell the people I play TTRPGs with "hey I find this fight boring. Would you be okay if the villain escaped in a magical portal to fight another day?"

And then, I drop back into playing the evil wizard crying out "I'll get you next time, Lord Bigdick!!"

If I may be Dr Kayfabe for a minute

Just because they know it is a production that doesn't mean the wrestling is fake.

They know their spot and pay are built around their TV time and audience support as much as their wins are.

It's fine if they play along with production for a few while maddogin

i was a "dan severen in UFC is cool" and a "dan severen in WWF is cool" girlie before i even knew the words 'kayfabe' or 'transsexual'

the fluidity of artifice, kayfabe, gaslighting, true believer-ism.. how far will you allow yourself to be consumed by delusions of righteousness ? it feels like the movie most grounded in our present of authoritarianism, ai, scams, and hyper capitalism
YOU CAN SEE EVERYTHING.. what a singular piece of work

Library pickup. Basically kayfabe WWE Wikipedia from 2012. Fun read

I feel like we are all living in a truman show or something

Its so unreal, kayfabe levels, idiocracy levels, lije its a reality tv show and NOTHING is real, except the billionares making money, thats very real

My kind of obvious predictions for tonight. I would much rather see a Speedy or Take championship run but even my heart plays by some kayfabe logic.

Oh, and the data center operator is a big MAGA guy.

When I say "Carney lied", I mean it. His opposition to the Trump regime is entirely kayfabe. It's purely a show. He doesn't mean a word of it.

He's just exploiting Canadian sovereignty fears to do everything that Harper couldn't get away with.

USA chants is the kayfabe icing on the cake. McMahons in the government is the shite spongy part of it.

I have to admit he has that strange property of convincing people of some mixture of "I'll be the one to swindle HIM (despite a huge floating ship graveyard of people who thought they can outruse trump)" and "things he says that agree with me are sincere, things that agree with others are kayfabe"

There's something really telling about the way they all facilitate each other reframing this bullshit. It's so unconvincing as well, "No you're the bigot, I'm the victim here"; some of the worst kayfabe you'll ever clap eyes on.

By now I hope we are all inoculated to the way the kayfabe oligarchy constantly misuses lawfare to justify its presence.
The UN is being tossed around like a headline.
While Europe seeks global backing for Ukraine but has no strategy, Russia thinks globally:

With China's support, it pushed an anti-colonialism resolution at the UN:

85 yes / 49 no.

That list of Western 'no' votes is free propaganda for Moscow across the Global South.

We're being outplayed.

Gas over $4. A war he swore he’d avoid. And the base won’t move. It’s not stupidity. It’s wrestling. Why bad results won’t bring the blue wave, and how I could still be wrong. Medium and LinkedIn links to follow.

All of this comes down to whether or not we make him. If congress continues to roll over and play dead who knows how long he could maintain the kayfabe?

But I agree, if it happens it’s because we let it. Ultimately he doesn’t have the means to impose his will by force.

I believe it's an ARG prank because of how much it apologizes for the shoddy state of the website in the Works section despite the website being fully functional and full of cute hidden ARG stuff and the fact that he never breaks kayfabe on the ARG nor the nature of why the studio "closed"
October 17, 2026 at 1:25 AM
up there with Matt Hardy’s magical drone as a major moment that reinforced that I still do care about some basic level of kayfabe
October 17, 2026 at 1:18 AM
in kayfabe there was never a saying they where 🤔

but the mox promo with renee involved maybe gets us to that 😉

Lo de que Nick Wayne sea el regen de Christian Cage a base de este último tirarse a su madre (en kayfabe, creo) pues me parece increíble. Denle un jersey de cuello alto a ese muchacho.

I've never really been a fan of ladder matches because I'm not a fan of seeing wrestlers getting hurt. And I mean REAL hurt, not kayfabe hurt.
October 16, 2026 at 11:49 PM
YES especially since we have BB who's all in on the kayfabe and then to have the grand champion as someone who doesn't even do kayfabe is just 🤷‍♀️ It's so shallow that he just 'hates weakness and wants to be strong' without anything else on top.
October 16, 2026 at 11:41 PM
Absolutely!! Like I’m cool with the recasting him as a heel part of it but god let that man have a life of his own too. It’s like he has zero concept of kayfabe unlike every other fighter.

MTG is a grifter whose every word + deed are calculated to advance her political ambitions the furthest distance in the moment. None of her 'epiphanies' are motivated by personal convictions. 100% kayfabe. Those are the principles she follows.

This (not Frank’s reporting, but the reporting they are reporting on) is a good example of the participatory technofascist make-believe kayfabe the oligarch owned press is collaborating in to construct autonomized expressions of criminal behavior as being outside of human agency or accountability
