Falls Count Anywhere uses the structure of a glossary of pro wrestling terms to explore relationships to realness within and beyond the wrestling ring. Combining original writing, excerpts from fan message boards and personal correspondence, the zine presents an account of the complicated delight found in the slippery, and often violent, border between "fake" and "real." It follows how this uncertain and much-debated distinction between a "work" (a fabricated scene) and a "shoot" (a real event) allows the modes of wrestling to bleed out from wrestling fandom and become a way to observe visual culture at large.
