Josh Peck Questions WWE Treating Scripted Wins Like Real Sports in Post-Show Interviews

Josh Peck is a wrestling fan, but that doesn’t mean he’s holding back his opinions about WWE. On a recent episode of his Good Guys podcast, Peck expressed his desire to attend WrestleMania one day but couldn’t help but question the company’s post-show press conferences.

“It is my dream to one day go to WrestleMania,” Peck said. “It just happened over the weekend and John Cena wound up winning. Later, I see a press conference with John Cena where he talks about him winning like you do after a sporting event. Except, this sport is scripted. What are ya, nuts? You knew you were gonna win. No shade on WWE, I love it, these guys are true athletes. It’s sports entertainment.”

Peck’s comments come after Cena’s controversial press conference following his record-setting 17th world title win at WrestleMania 41. While some fans see WWE’s press conferences as a way to blend reality with the scripted nature of wrestling, Peck isn’t convinced it makes sense.

WrestleMania 42 is set to take place in New Orleans, but it’s unclear if Peck will attend. Outside of wrestling, Peck has been keeping busy with roles in Oppenheimer, The Last Of Us, and How I Met Your Father.
