What is the debate about the authenticity of wrestling?
But before we get to Pablo Zaslow, what is the issue? I feel like Mike Ryan and Chris Cody – Peers of yours, guys you grew up with, you guys were all doing the same jobs at the same time. I feel like they feel judged by you, and there's some judgment in general going on around here about WrestleMania nerds.
Well, okay, they feel that I'm judging them. What? Like, what's their thought?
I don't know what's happening here around the WrestleMania. I think you're a passionate WrestleMania person, are you not?
Oh, yes, love pro wrestling. Yes, I had a great weekend. It was WrestleMania weekend in the Zaslow Mansion. We all got together, all the Zaslow men, and we watched a lot of pro wrestling. How am I judging you?
Forgive me. I misunderstood the nature of the argument. Was there not somebody here who— Me, I'm judging them.
They're nerds.
Okay. I mean, get over it.
Seriously. Forgive me. It's not real. I mean—
Really? That's what we're doing in the year 2025? That's what we're doing? Do you think you just educated someone by telling us it's not real?
Listen to me. If it's down the street from your house and you like wrestling, go to a wrestling event. You don't fly to Vegas for WrestleMania. That's not what you do. No, I mean, I didn't, but why? It's fake. That's why.
Yes, okay. Everybody knows it's fake.
Not wrestling fans feel like they are experiencing something differently than we're experiencing it. No, we're not. Can you answer me something? What is fake?
What's the definition? What's fake? What's fake? Them. Wrestling. No, but okay, it's a show.
41.
41. And it's the Super Bowl of wrestling. Yeah. Okay, when you watch the Super Bowl, you feel like you're watching real people collide, real physicality, real results, right? Right. With wrestling, it's rigged.
Yeah, I understand. It's a show, though. I get to watch my show in person. It's a bad show. They're like the greatest athletes in the world. There's no second takes, third takes. They do everything in one take. They're doing it all right in front of you. They're acting and performing and performing incredible athletic feats right in front of you, live. No do-overs.
Wrestling is basically Broadway for dudes who won't admit that they like theater, right? Because, I mean, we're talking, it's a stage show with a bunch of acting and physical performances and storylines that you know how they're probably going to end up. But if you've never seen that stage production, then you don't know how it's going to go.
So we're seeing a new Broadway show, right? Here's my big problem, all right? Why is it, and this is you now, Stugatz, you're the guy. Why is it you feel the need to tell other grown-ups about, Like myself. Now, I wasn't there, but Mike Ryan was there. Other grown-ups. Yeah. Why are you critical of other grown-ups enjoying something? It's what I do. Yeah. But you're not the only one. You're that representation here right now in front of me. But you're not the only one. Oh, you watch wrestling. You go to wrestling. You're an adult. Why can't you turn on WrestleMania this weekend? There were 60,000 people in attendance each night having a great, great time. What's wrong with people having a great time?
