"Let's Get Ready to Royal Rumble": A discussion onprofessional wrestling

Wrestling superfan James Blackwell joins me to discuss pro-wrestling in fair detail. Being a non-fan, I thought it'd be an interesting chat as he attempts to prove to me why it's a valid "entertainment" property. Of course, as films like The Wrestler will attest, they do have to put their bodies through a lot, so we go through the time-honoured real vs. fake arguments, the best wrestlers, the worst wrestlers, and some of the best matches of all time. Hopefully our chat will entertain you as well:

Who's your favourite wrestler of all time? I would honestly pick The Rock. While he may have made some silly choices of recently, I do think he's a good actor considering his origins.
