Jerry Lawyer showed the real Andy

The whole Wrestling part of this movie was completely false. The whole thing was a complete work by Andy and Jerry. You can Wrestling listen to what really happened in a interview from Jerry on the Steve Austin podcast he was on.

Andy was acting completely. To me it looked like the movie missed this and fell for Andy's acting. None of the sexiest remarks were real. They were his character. Why this movie made out like the knock injury was real or that his family or friends didn't know is bad. It made Andy look bad and made for a untrue movie.

Am I missing something about this thread? The film made it very clear that it was all an act.

I'm not say that the wrestling scenes were acting. I'm saying that it was not portrayed incorrect. The wrestling went on until very close to his death. It was shown to be very negative on him but that was not true. His family knew it was a act, yet in the movie they were shown to believe it. They were shown to be upset. This was not true.

The whole wrestling angle went on for over a year.
