    Oh, I remember those times. People did NOT keep watching, as I recall it.

    Most felt betrayed and stupid and would never talk about it again.

      Did Americans actually think they were for real? I feel like folks everywhere else understood it but evidently enjoyed the entertaining acrobatics! I guess voting for a rich reality TV star charlatan was definitely in the cards for the US, lol, they can’t tell reality from fiction anyway!

        if you ever take a glance at the IWC on twitter (Internet Wrestling Community - yes I do watch pro wrestling) you’ll find that most still think it’s real.

        I 100% believed it was real. But then i turned 10 or so and me and my friends were wondering how this real man called the undertaker just got resurrected

          I understood it was a show but somehow finding out Kane and the Undertaker aren’t brothers (and this happened recently too, lol) kinda fucked me up. 🤷😅
