Wrestling lore is really funny to explain to non-wrestling people, mainly because you have to suspend your disbelief much more than you would do for stuff like anime or superhero fiction. Think of it like this; it’s normal for a shonen anime protagonist or a superhero to demonstrate they have superpowers usually because it’s established early on. That also goes for other parts of the lore, such as the world-building, the MacGuffins, and the history of that world.
But in wrestling, characters and storylines change all the time and are ongoing (I’ve seen the term “longform storytelling” used). So you end up with HUGE leaps in logic, such as:
1) There’s a supernatural being from hell who temporarily became a biker gang member, and then went back to being a supernatural being from hell
2) There’s a male model who gave out grooming tips who eventually evolved into Captain America/Homelander.
3) Triple H committed burglary on camera. He invaded Randy Orton’s home, beat him up, destroyed some of his property, and then threw Orton out the window. But it’s all fine because he’s the good guy, so he’s still employed by the WWE.
4) Dominik Mysterio is beefing with his dad, who literally fought for child custody of him in a wrestling match. Keep that in mind anytime you see Dominik not getting along with Rey.
5) Edge got sent to hell, but is okay now.
6) CM Punk was once a cult leader, but stopped doing that after he lost his hair. Then he became the opposite, as in he turned into an anti-authority rebel.
7) A lot of wrestlers, such as Sheamus and Shawn Spears, apparently used to work at WWE as background staff/security guards.
8) Real life famous music artist Bad Bunny is part of the lore and he actually beat a world champion (Damian Priest) in a match. And I don’t mean Bad Bunny is playing a character. In the WWE lore, Bad Bunny is playing himself.
(Feel free to add on any other leaps in logic from pro-wrestling)
I need WWE to allow intergender matches because I need Penta to run it back with Iyo and Chelsea Green.
I love my cats so much because I give them food and affection and they give me a look that says be gone with you you useless peasant
Stunting on them hoes.
I like haunted things. and what happens when you like haunted things a little too much you say?
.....you start creating a google sheets database of haunted locations and info on them which you've dubbed "the haunted index" is what happens.........
honestly I think this is a build up of watching sam and colby, garrett watts, twin paranormal and project fear lmao - at least it gives me something to do
so my twitter feed pointed out something...interesting
true 2000′s nonsense was finding an amv with a cool song and revisiting the amv for the song instead of actually looking it up
if house md were running in 2024 there would be an episode with a patient who identifies as an ‘online content creator’ (cagily) where house agrees to take the case primarily because when he offhandedly refers to her as an onlyfans model both cameron and cuddy get really offended and say it’s a sexist assumption so he doubles down and becomes committed to finding the patient’s onlyfans and proving it. at some point it would be revealed that chase actually is an onlyfans model and started doing it as a stopgap after his dad died and he suddenly got disinherited but he makes so much money off it that now medicine is basically just a hobby. cameron and foreman both disagree with the concept online sex work but it turns out they disagree for different reasons (cameron thinks it’s exploitative and not-feminist, foreman finds it distasteful and thinks people should get ‘real jobs’) and spend most of their scenes together arguing about this while chase gets continually more shifty. they break into the patient’s house and there’s a full ringlight and camera setup which seems to confirm house’s suspicions. while trying to find the patient’s onlyfans house accidentally finds chase’s onlyfans instead and considers publicly embarrassing him about it like he did with wilson’s sex tape but soon realises that most of the staff at the hospital are already subscribed to chase’s onlyfans so makes fun of him for that instead. it then transpires that the reason why the patient is so cagey about being a content creator is that she’s an ASMR artist and all the soap she’s been shaving on camera has irritated her lungs. cuddy is about to make house give her 20 extra hours of clinic duty as recompense but at last minute it’s revealed that the website the patient uses for some of her bonus commissions is, drumroll…onlyfans, because she’s been banned from patreon. how does house know this? wilson is subscribed to her because the soap videos sometimes soothe him to sleep. something by cigarettes after sex plays. roll end credits.

have we tried sitting completely still in a dark room, my liege?
if Fraxiom make it to RAW or Smackdown together and WWE use the Seth being Nathan's mentor storylien really well, like to the point people can believe Nathan would turn on Axiom, only for Axiom to be the one who turns his back on Nathan that would be fucking cool
why is it always trans women who are seen as threats and never trans men???
like neither should realistically be seen as a threat (individual people are threats depending on who they are and what actions they do) but why always trans women fucking hell
nothing that a haircut and a wardrobe update and a detox and a sex change and a fake ID and getting medicated and selling all my stuff and faking my death and moving country can't fix
being God’s favorite is sleep through the entirety of archive of our own’s downtime and wake up to the site up and running normally again

“Erm, why are you drawing these two characters being friends in their season one outfits when they were NOT friends in season one and we on HOSTILE terms-“
Have you ever tried experiencing joy?
just glanced to my right and made direct eye contact with a spider :D
love when weapons YouTubers get deep into the weeds and they start calling a specific year of a specific type of sword that only other weapons YouTubers know about "overrated".
