That was quite good for a short feature. So where do we go for the rest of the series?

Don't know I learned anything about being a pro wrestler, but still interesting regardless.

Very cool. Would it be wrong to say that pro wrestling may be the only form of pop culture media and entertainment, (besides some forms of music), where the workers are by large of blue collar and working class backgrounds or where there is even an opportunity or incentive for folks of such upbringings and backgrounds to enter pop culture?
Yes I realize that obviously I already believe this, and have for awhile, by the way I asked the question. But what about anybody else? And how does that affect it compared to other forms of entertainment? Will anyone care about these questions?
