Professional wrestling is just as 'real' as professional sports because both are forms of entertainment that people become obsessed with

I think wrestling's real. So wrestling runs a lot of parallels with sport. People get lost and obsessed in sport. Sport is merely a game. ... And what we do is just an exhibition to try to drum up the same fanatical response.

This is a philosophical interpretation of what 'real' means in the context of fan engagement.

Villanova is a basketball death squad

Villanova is a fucking death squad of a basketball team. There was a moment... when Michigan was up... and then Dante DiVincenzo showed up and basically... it's like that's it for Michigan. I'll tell you, you've never seen a team be up so fast so early and then know the instant the game was over even though it was still a tie game.

Villanova won the 2018 title decisively, 79-62.

Jalen Brunson will not be a star in the NBA and will likely be a second-round pick

I still think Jalen Brunson is not going to be a star in the NBA. He probably is a second-round pick.

While he was a second-round pick (33rd overall), Brunson became a massive NBA star for the Mavericks and Knicks.

The Patriots will draft Donte DiVincenzo with the 31st pick

I think DiVincenzo's still going to be on the draft board when the Patriots pick at 31. Yes, so he might get snatched up.

DiVincenzo was drafted 17th overall by the Milwaukee Bucks in the NBA draft, and the Patriots (NFL) obviously did not draft him.

James Gunn maintains a 'no asshole' rule on his film sets

[James Gunn] also has a no asshole [rule]. And he puts together teams of people who there's not a bad apple in the bunch... I knew I was going to be surrounded by good people.

This is a frequently cited policy by James Gunn and his regular cast members in multiple interviews.

Competition in the wrestling industry is good because it forces every performer to be at their best

Do I think competition is good? I think competition is great... Whenever there is more buzz around an industry, it's good for the industry and it forces all of us to be at our best... repeatable bad segments from the group means the company can't be good, which means that the competition will succeed.

This is a business and entertainment theory take.
