In-universe, is kayfabe a thing in LAW or is everything real? From what I have read, I'm guessing it is the latter.

Yes everything on LAW is real. Wrestling is a real sport in the LAW world.

Well, yes and no. Yes, the combat is real. Some of he characters don't have to be "real" The best example is my main OC: Isaiah Bowen AKA the Prophet. His "real" character and his ring persona are separate. This can be implemented in backstage stuff.

Yeah but that’s not much different the a boxer or MMA fighter who plays up a character to look larger then life. It’s a more exaggerated form of it but it’s ultimately the same thing but once they get in the ring the action is all real.

Basically this. Your imagination is the only limit here.
