WWE drops kayfabe in response to Glenn Beck

Nobody needs reminding of it though, suspension of disbelief and all.

You don't want guys to stop midway through a match, get on the mic and say "that didn't really hurt him", same rule applies with promos and such.

Telling everyone he's not a racist makes it harder to buy into his act, we all know its a rouse but making it clear kills the character.

During a show I can't see them doing anything like this at all to break kayfabe but this is a different situation and I think it is a fair way to address the situation. Yes they made it clear that they are characters but they also managed to pretty much stay in character during the promo as well. I don't see this as any different to most interviews that wrestlers do these days where most of it is out of character anyway even when they are promoting a live event.

WWE should be taking advantage of this publicity anyways. This could really get people more interested in Wrestlemania in what would be a pretty standard WHC title match into a much bigger thing. It really looked like an afterthought to everything else that should go down at Mania this year so now it could have some god damn intrigue.

Media stories like this wouldn't last long enough to keep harping on it until Mania, they dropped a few Beck bombs at Raw, leave it at that....Just have Coulter turn the volume up, because he wasn't saying heelish things on MizTV, alot of people would agree with his statements, and give Swagger a headshave, punishment for pot, skinhead Swagger.

Book it! Smell the money.
