Kayfabe: A Fake Real Movie About A Fake Real Sport (also released as Kayfabe: Work Your Gimmick) is a 2007 Mockumentary about Professional Wrestling written and directed by Michael Raven and Michael Scully, and is a loving tribute to the fiction and reality of wrestling. The story concerns the TCICWF (Tri-City International Championship Wrestling Federation), which is ending due to their lease not being renewed. The individual wrestlers, ranging from the heel Randy "The Rocket" Tyler to his perennial face opponent Steve Justice to the jobbers such as "Lucky" Lupichuk (gang-banger, loser, and blader), El Roboto Magnifico (masked robot wrestler) to "Tomahawk Jacques" (Canadian-French Irish-Native American wrestler) to Casa Nova (Camp Straight muscle man) to Blue Avenger (the rookie, forced to use the most absurd gimmicks), are all trying to make their most of the final shows, and trying to figure out what more there is to life than wrestling.Skewering multiple wrestling tropes, as well as indy wrestling in general, this film is a must-see for anyone in the wrestling business.The film has been made available on YouTube in September 2016 after the original official website went down. |

Cool Old Guy: Al Thompson, owner of the promotion, steps into the ring for the final match to demonstrate the skills he was known for. He's just as old and frail as you might expect, but make up for it with dirty tactics and a refusal to run the match as called. |

| | Kayfabe: A Fake Real Movie About A Fake Real Sport / int_1badfb3a |
comment |
The Heart: Despite his heel persona, Tyler is the one who holds the wrestling promotion together when Al disappears. He even gives Justice the victory and the title in the last match, contrary to how he booked it, because he saw that it was what the fans wanted, and because he knew Justice needed it. |

The Rival |
| | Kayfabe: A Fake Real Movie About A Fake Real Sport / int_1c3d047e |
comment |
The Rival: Justice and Tyler, both in and out of the ring. In-ring, they play out the heel vs. face dynamic. Out of the ring, Justice wants to be recognized more while Tyler recognizes the value of having the audience hate the current champion and cheer for them to be deposed. Ultimately, Tyler gives Justice the victory and the belt in the last match because it's best for the business. |

Small Name, Big Ego: Steve Justice. He constantly demands squash matches when he is to do double duty and wants to be the final TCICWF champion, with him being a seasoned wrestler. Randy lampshades this by revealing Justice's masked alter-ego as his only major appearance outside the company. Al Thompson in the final show of TCICWF. In the match, he goes against the script between him and The Blue Avenger completely. |

Squash Match: Steve Justice insists on this when he gets double-booked (which is apparently often) so that he can conserve his strength for the main match. It turns out that most of his opponents are his usual rival, Randy Tyler, under a mask. Both Lucky and Jacques suffer from this in their respective matches. |

Homoerotic Subtext: Casa Nova is a walking stereotype with how he's obsessed with his physique, is constantly naked in the locker room, and how he insists on maintaining holds that involve mashing wrestler crotches because "it's hot". The interviewer even explicitly asks about the link between wrestling and homoeroticism, much to the discomfort of every wrestler but Casa Nova. |

Mean Character, Nice Actor: In-universe. Randy "The Rocket" Tyler may be the most hated wrestler TCICWF has in their roster, but off the field, he's actually a kind figure who's just doing his job. Inverted with Steve Justice, as although he plays the face, his off-screen personality does not match. |

Right for the Wrong Reasons: Steve Justice argues to be the champion for the last show of TCICWF, but mainly because he wants to crush Randy Tyler. Randy ultimately does honour Justice’s wish during the match, and Steve’s accomplishment results in him becoming Steven Plunder in a new promotion. |

Finishing Move: The wrestlers establish before the match what the "finishing move" will be, and the wrestlers jealously guard their particular signature move. |

"Where Are They Now?" Epilogue |
| | Kayfabe: A Fake Real Movie About A Fake Real Sport / int_b77808f2 |
comment |
"Where Are They Now?" Epilogue: The ending credits scrolls over a final interview with Randy where he describes where everyone wound up, and his belief that they'll all come back to the TCICWF. His own epilogue is detailed, but his work uniform suggests that he was not one of the ones who found success. It helps that Randy is taking courses in the marketing business, intending to resurrect TCICWF from the grave. |

Smoking Is Not Cool |

comment |
Smoking Is Not Cool: Al Thompson - a chain-smoking alcoholic veteran of the wrestling business - takes on The Blue Avenger in the final show. His clearly abysmal performance in the match shows that after being out of shape for a few years and instead favoring smoking cigarettes and drinking, chances are that you would be a mere shadow of your former self. Being as serious as a heart attack, Thompson opts out of the company. |

Comically Missing the Point: A few wrestlers have done this; the highlights include Casa “Super” Nova revealing that he doesn’t speak Spanish when Justice points out that his name could mean the ‘House of “Super” Nova’, Tomahawk Jacques insisting that he washes himself all the time when the pastor insists that they keep their wrestling clean and Steve Justice calling out The Cantaloupe Kid for leaving although he chose to leave because of seeing Casa “Super” Nova in the nude. |

Not Cheating Unless You Get Caught: Tyler's usual ending is to get his opponent and the referee off-guard with a crotch-kick or powder followed by him pulling a roll of quarters from this trunks to land the final punch. In this case, it's incredible obvious that he cheated because the quarters usually go everywhere. |
