      @@arios0312 of course they are, but for it to make people to wonder if it's fake or not means they're doing their job well.
      I remember watching that Raw live even after all these years. IIRC, that was the beginning of the end of WWE for me.

      ​@@ROMANTIKILLER2 How so, though? Was he speaking Italian? But, if hes playing an Italian character and speaking English...then I dont know how Italian people can tell for sure if he's really Italian or not. Sure, the accent is stereotypical and exaggerated, but non-native English speakers speaking English can sound all sorts of ways! I live in Russia now and have heard Russians speak English in all sorts of accents. 'Typical' Russian accent, exaggerated accent, even N. American and British accents.

    Lana didn't have a commitment to the character outside of the ring, too, which ended up being a problem. They had great heat until they posted social media posts showing themselves looking very not their characters, Lana particularly looking very not her character. That killed their heat in my opinion. If you don't have a total commitment to being in character at least to some level outside of the ring, you will never be fully over. Fans have to believe that the person in the ring and out of it are somewhat one in the same, or they won't believe in your character.
