US Congressman Tim Ryan took to Twitter on Tuesday night, revealing that he had walked out of Donald Trump’s State of the Union address because it was “like watching professional wrestling.” He continued, “It’s all fake.”
Several wrestlers took to Twitter to respond, including Dolph Ziggler, Paige, and Gail Kim:
As a fan of pro wrestling, politics & Congressman Ryan, I see many similarities between the jobs we so passionately do…
such as; it’s only real when we win https://t.co/PdX6uSYgdP— Nic Nemeth (@HEELZiggler) February 5, 2020

We aren’t fake. TRUMP IS. We don’t deserve to be lumped into his category. TRUMP= unpredictable and FAKE. WRESTLING= predetermined and physically REAL. We are the escape from this reality https://t.co/cEcxmlXGCw

You’re ‘fake’ constantly so that you get what you want out of life. https://t.co/0PWHz3oAxn
