Politics Makes for Bad Wrestling
Briefly

As pro wrestlers publicly endorse political candidates, fans engage in cruel criticism, revealing how intertwined celebrity and opinion can escalate to personal attacks over differing beliefs.
Some fans have begun to dismiss the wrestling careers of those who express political views contrary to their own, engaging in a form of revisionist history.
It’s a curious time where political allegiance among wrestlers is scrutinized, leading to backlash against their past achievements simply for their endorsements.
Despite political endorsements leading to harsh criticisms, wrestlers like Batista, Foley, Jacobs, and Hogan continue to express their views, emblematic of their rights as public figures.
