2 are totally different, both require a super level of skills to do well. Pro Wrestlers are probably even tougher than any MMA guys. You can say pro wrestling is staged blah blah blah. But the shit they subject their bodies to day in day out is crazy. I no longer watch Pro Wrestling, haven't since WCW went off the air. But I watched it understanding it was scripted, but still very athletic and tough to do. The average WWE guy couldn't make it in MMA, but the average MMA guy couldn't make it in WWE either. No sense in comparing the 2.
most definitely.
The people who say WWE actors aren't athletic and that WWE isn't physically demanding, are just flat out morons.
But just because they are highly athletic and very capable individuals, does not mean we cannot say that WWE in of itself is flat out retarded. WWE requires great physical ability, but the end result is not a match of performance and capability, but of scripted results.
Any true ring competition, is a match between two individuals with the result being the person who used physical abilities to outmatch the other. It's not always the more gifted individual, but the physical abilities were used in some way to outperform the other.
UFC fits that, but sadly, the UFC organization itself brings a great deal of drama into the whole system that is completely unnecessary.
Dana can just be a complete idiot on many occasions.
