Rep Power: 9 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | <undertaker rejects...> Earlier today, Tuesday, wwe.com posted that The Undertaker would return on SmackDown! to appear on Pipers Pit and discuss his beating at the hands of Khali. Now it's posting that the Undertaker has turned down his invitation to Pipers Pit, and will be replaced by The Great Khali in his hometown of Portland. Anyone have any ideas why 'Taker would decide to not come to SD! this week? | |

Rep Power: 15 ![]() | wwe.com is hard to rely on ever since Michael Cole decided to ruin it by turning it back into a kayfabe website. |

Rep Power: 9 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Here's the google meaning: From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search In professional wrestling, kayfabe (pronounced KAY-fayb; IPA: ['keɪfeɪb]) refers to the portrayal of events within the industry as real, that is the portrayal of professional wrestling as not staged or worked. Referring to events as kayfabe means that they are worked events, and/or part of a wrestling storyline. In relative terms, a wrestler breaking kayfabe during a show would be likened to an actor breaking character on camera. Kayfabe is often seen as the suspension of disbelief that is used to create the non-wrestling aspects of promotions, such as feuds, storylines, and gimmicks, in a similar manner with other forms of entertainment such as soap opera or movie. In the past, kayfabe was strongly adhered to in order to preserve the illusion that pro wrestling was not staged. With the advent of the Internet Wrestling Community and the sports entertainment movement in pro wrestling, the maintenance of pro wrestling's backstage secrets are more difficult to keep than they were in earlier decades. Today, kayfabe is sometimes broken to advance storylines, to explain prolonged absences due to legitimate injury, as a tribute to a wrestler, or even for comedic effect. However, (even today) wrestlers who unexpectedly break kayfabe are often punished for their actions. One of the most notable such cases was the MSG Incident where Triple H, whose rise to professional wrestling stardom in the WWF was stunted for some time after he embraced his soon-to-be departing onscreen rivals, Diesel and Razor Ramon, at the end of a house show at Madison Square Garden. I posted it for ya Duke, but I'm too damn lazy to ready it to know what it means myself! | |
