PPP and Godwinson play their own little kayfabe games and I don't really pay attention to them anymore.
Is Faith reliable? Fuck no.
Does that make Ethan Ralph any less of a piece of shit? Fuck no.
Sure it's possible that Faith has faked alll of this stuff, but I think that's pretty unlikely. This all aligns too well with how Ralph really is. Three pieces of evidence come to mind that make me believe the choking story (pictures of bruises won't sway me either way because she does have a history of faking that exact kind of thing before):
1. Drunkenly taking a swing at a cop.
2. How fast he attacked that guy in Phoenix at the rally. Guy was just yelling stuff at him and then left, Ralph chased after and then initiated physical contact first.
3. When he tried to start shit with that woozuh guy. He flew off the handle fast with that too.
He's extremely quick to anger and doesn't have full control over himself. I can completely see him trying to choke Faith for cock blocking his threesome.
