In a story first reported earlier today, UFC President Dana White had a Twitter exchange with a WWE fan regarding UFC’s Pay-Per-View prices, and how they compare to the WWE Network’s cost of $9.99. White then claimed that, “it’s $9.99 because professional wrestling is fake,” which was met with ill favor from the wrestling community.

As previously reported, former TNA, ECW and WWE Superstar Taz went on a Twitter rant due to White’s comments. Later, current WWE World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins commented on how “professional wrestling is fake.”

Since then, many professional wrestling stars have weighed in on their views on just how “fake” professional wrestling is, which can be seen below (This post will continue to be updated as more Tweets come in):

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Editor’s Note:

We all know that professional wrestling is predetermined, but obviously the usage of the word FAKE is not something that is taken lightly by fans and stars alike. These men put their bodies on the line every night for our entertainment, and it shouldn’t be brushed aside because it isn’t “real fighting.” White should have probably chosen a different set of words.
