In the second part of Part 2 of "We Need to Talk About That F*****g Election that Just Happened" I finally get to the bit about wrestling.
World Wrestling Entertainment makes content that is a form of melodramatic theatre centred around partially improvised but largely scripted "wrestling". Over the last few decades, though, the content occurring outside of the ring has become more complex, with ever more convoluted storylines.
