      Stephanie McMahon and Triple H both said on Twitter that they like what Max Landis did.
    • Quotes
      • [Caption: When you say "I love pro wrestling," the response is inevitably...]
      • Non-Fan: You do know it's fake, right?
      • [Caption: To which I say...]
      • Max Landis: More real than any other TV show. WWE Raw features live death-defying stunts performed in front of an audience of thousands every week. People who feel the need to tell you that wrestling isn't real clearly don't watch wrestling because the show features an undead wizard...
      • [Caption: not kidding]
      • Max Landis: Leprechauns.
      • [Caption: not kidding]
      • Max Landis: An evil group of male cheerleaders.
      • [Caption: not fucking kidding]
      • Max Landis: This show does not pretend to be an athletic competition. Instead, it's a TV show about a wrestling show. It has more in common with Game of Thrones than it does with UFC. And if you follow one character, all the way through, you can see that this format allows the telling of interesting, diverse, and compelling stories. And there's no better place to start than with... probably my favorite wrestler. Triple H.
