4. I wasn't sure where to post it, but... like they say..
If you don't like the title of a thread, there's nothing forcing you to open it, other than your own desire to try to tell someone else what to do or be detractor in some way or other.

:hi:

7. Why don't they all just piss on themselves and burn up in a flame?
Geesh that professional crap is total waste of time.

Did anyone ever time the amount of time for all of the wrestling performance and the amount of time they just hype crap?

9. Yeah, I don't like the soap opera stuff and the soft core porn, but if
you really watch some of the matches, it's amazing what some of these guys do with and to their bodies.

The first mistake people make is saying "oh that stuff is fake". It's not necessarily as much "fake" as it os choreographed and practiced every day, just like football players, gymnasts, etc. They practice their craft (Sports Entertainment) and they are tops in their league. Yes, they are "professional" athletes. Afterall, you can only do so much to soften your landings and stuff, but you have to be in top notch shape just to attempt what these guys do.

Don't look at is "fighting", but rather as some really cool "tumbling and gymnastics" and you might appreciate it more.

Just sayin... :hi:

12. Acting is what it is. Nothing more. Stunt acting to be more specific.
And staged. Like I stated before they spend more time promoting themselves then the actual physical performance.


And there are no rules.


Now high school, college and olympic wrestling are real. And they don't spend time promoting themselves.
