Right, so kayfabe is like…"don't break the masquerade"?

Basically, it means you stay in character at all times. If you're being enemies with someone at the time, you can't be seen being nice to them, ever, even if you're all just colleagues and the fight is for ratings.

Not just that, but don't acknowledge that it is a masquerade. Wrestling is "real" in that the performers and fans act like it is, even though everyone knows it isn't.
