Wrestling fans are far from an intelligent lot, by and large, and tend to believe a lot of shit, even if it's not said by Meltzer.

  • Benoit didn't have steroids in his system, and the news media made it up because of some grudge. It couldn't be that a person who played essentially himself on one of the biggest cable shows nationwide, which panders to kids, killed his family then himself. Nah. Grudge.
  • WWE PR. On top of the above belief coming out of a WWE press release (which lied, and then later did mention steroids in his system....), people tend to believe the ratings which are handed out by the company itself over the Nielsen ratings. I mean, these are the guys who said they were drawing more kids than Nickelodeon, Disney, and whatever that third big kid's channel is.
  • Do I even need to bring up the whole SAVE US thing? Tons of fans were pissed every week when a guy who wasn't advertised or promised for a specific date didn't show up, because it had to be Jericho, and he had to be coming TONIGHT.
  • Dogma. Triple H is the most over heel ever, Chyna's a man, Ric Flair's still a draw. Okay, the Chyna one is probably true.
  • shit like JBL's firing from his TV spot violating his free speech, Vince being investigated by Congress for bogus reasons (It wasn't about steroids, but lying to shareholders, and similar bandwagon material.

Wrestling fans don't need DM to act stupid and blindly believe things, 450. The typical wrestling fan seems content to "BYOBS."
