Guess what guys, wrestling is fake


I mean come on, who could really think it was real? It was fake when I was a kid back in the late 80s and its even more fake now. Only a kid under the age of 12 or an inbred retard would think it was real.

The only thing fake about wrestling is the storylines and outcome of the matches. Have you ever seen a wrestling ring before its put together?

Wrong, stupid. The floor of the ring is made to absorb any disturbance. The wrestlers always land on their knees and hands when they jump on someone, so they barely feel anything.

Fake....

Fake as Jesus.

I think the supreme court case Thompson v. Guevara proved unequivocally that wrestling is fake. It's all fake, anyone who thinks it's "hard" to be a wrestler and they get "injured" should smarten the heck up!

Vince McMahon was making people believe that his car exploded and was dead. But if he's dead, how come he's still in charge of the WWF?

Wrestling fans make me sick because everyone is stupid.

I swear theres always some nerd to point this one obvious fact out.

Guess what? we Know its Fake! thats why its called sports-entertainment!

If that bothers you so much and if its not good enough for your stuck up level of intelligence, heres an obvious and simple solution!

DONT WATCH IT!

we know its fake , the fans know its fake, the wrestlers know its fake, and captian obvious(the Op) seems to barely have figured that out. But some of us dont care if its fake,so what if the dramas fixed, majority of the bumps ARE REAL! and we who watch willingly appreciate the heart and passion the wrestlers put into putting on a show for our entertainemnt. To any one of them wrestlers,any one of them! who ever read this, Thank You !

and for those who cant resist the obvious urge to point it out, i got two words for you! Shut It! We know its fake but we still love it! and wasting your time by poitning out its fake isnt going to change our minds, it never has, never will!

Hey everybody, Santa doesn't exist. See, I too can point out obvious facts.

The problem here is, what is the definition of 'fake'? Do you mean that the drama, the microphone screaming, and match results are scripted? Then yes, its fake. Okay, many of the punches and hits are pulled, or rolled with. But there's no way to fake a lot of the moves, like a body slam. You really have to pick someone up and throw them down. The key is, these guys are trained on how to fall. How to land so your body absorbs the shock. But guess what? They still get hurt, and hurt badly, too.
So, here's the real question, who cares if its fake? Do you go to see movies for the level or realism? If so, why the hell are you watching a wrestling movie? Or any action / sci-fi/ romantic comedy or really anything but a documentary? Or anything on TV except for news and game shows. As another poster shrewdly pointed out, most everything is fake in media. Does that reduce its entertainment value? If you think so, then I guess I'll have to challenge you to a cage match!

It's fake?????

I mean.... I've always believed that if you punch a man in the face it doesn't bruise. If you throw an 80 year old woman through a table she doesn't break a hip. Or if you run a man down in hummer, you don't go to jail.


I also thought Lost and Lord of the Rings were real... =/



But I dare the original poster to go through just ONE professional wrestling training session and come back and say these men aren't phenomenal athletes.
