Author’s take
Honestly speaking, it’s great to see WWE break down the fourth wall, and show fans that the world of professional wrestling is indeed a team effort, rather than an individual, selfish smash-and-grab, so to speak.
The pro-wrestling business and WWE entertains millions of fans the world over, owing to the fact that the performers work in conjunction with one another—maintaining professionalism and following the core fundamentals of teamwork to a T.
