At 5 PM Eastern today, I appeared on HuffPost Live, hosted by Mike Sacks, to discuss whether wrestling was real or not. I was joined by MMA writer Ben Fowlkes, fellow wrestling fan DeAno Jackson, and Curtis Hughes. Yes, THAT Curtis Hughes, better known as "Mr. Hughes." It's 25+ minutes of discussion of the old debate as to why people watch a "fake" sport. I argue that it's not fake because it evokes such a genuine reaction from its fans, and that it's also not a sport either. Catch the replay and watch me engage in discussion on camera, and hopefully you won't turn to stone looking at my ugly mug.
