The fact that people actually watch and follow wrestling just boggles my mind.

I don't see how it's much different intelectually than other mindless shows like the OC that people here don't have a problem with.

The fact that someone has died engaging in such entertainment leaves me phuggin clueless.

Brandon Lee died making the crow, so how do you feel about movies?

When I heard someone broke their neck "wrastlin" all I could do was laugh at the stupidity. What a waste of life.

Jackie Chan gets fscked up shooting movies as much as any wrestler does in the ring. I guess he's a waste of life too, huh?

jackie and brandon don't pretend what they do is real.

They don't pretend it's real

yes, in real life they don't pretend what they do is real.

wrestlers are more like u. like where u pretend u don't understand the difference:p

That doesn't make any sense. Do actors not realistically portray their roles? Yea, it'd be great if in The Matrix - the lobby scene - Keanu Reeves after killing all the agents in the lobby looked at the camera and said: "this is not real - it's just a movie, we do not condone killing government agents". Wrestlers are athletic actors. They act a role on TV. That's it. Once upon a time, yes, they claimed it was real. That has not been the case for well over 10-15 years. There's a reason why it's called WORLD WRESTLING ENTERTAINMENT now. Your logic makes no sense.


good god. keanu reeves doesn't go around saying he's really a fighter for zion against the machines of the matrix!! he says he's an actor, that he pretends. something he readily admits.

if wrestlers were honest, they'd just call themselves acting stuntmen.


actually if you read articles by them or biographies (read the ones by Mick Foley. great reads). They state about how fake it is and the planning they do before a match.

some of the new wrestlers have a great armature background. One is even a Olympic gold medal winner. I know wrestling is fake but i still enjoy watching it. Some of the moves are great. If you have 2 good people in there the match is great. someone like Beniot + angle make for a great match.
