#WWE explores the relationship between truth and fiction in professional wrestling in ways that are extremely relevant to the contemporary socio-political climate (e.g., "fake" news) #WWE looks at professional wrestling not just as a performance art but a transmedia phenomenon, collaboratively constituted by producers and fans. This book will appeal to scholars of film, television, and media; sports studies; and popular culture and fandom. Its accessible approach will make it appealing for classroom use as well.
