He worked himself into a shoot

Did he have a stroke typing that or am I out of the loop with wrestling lingo and it makes sense to people?

Sounds like he's already qualified for a run at the White House.

McDonnell/Hogan 2028!

Hopefully they both will be by then. And Donnie.

Little of column A and little of column B.

The phrase is "Don't work yourself into a shoot"

"Work" is part of the show. "Shoot" is not part of the show.

It's why you might hear about "shoot fighting" in relation to MMA, especially on the Japanese side. Because MMA was born from pro wrestling.

But the term "Don't work yourself into a shoot". Basically means, don't get so wrapped up in how a story is presented that you believe the story is "legit". If your opponent is cutting a promo and calls you a bastard, he's not legitimately calling you a bastard.
