    Dave K DaveK über alles!

    UFC bought the WWE a few months back. Something like $7 Billion.

    I still like Wrastling. Don’t watch it often but it’s awesome mindless entertainment.

    Watch his 20 for 20 if you can. Dude lives his gimmick and is hilarious.

    While wrestlin' wasn't full on contact via punches, etc., there's definitely more "contact" at times, most often unintentional ("$hit happens), sometimes the blood was real at times (oops!).

    But, the abuse they took in being slammed around in the ring, on tables, outside the ring wasn't for the weak.....even with them training "how to". Lotta them older fellas are feeling it today.

    I sure wouldn't want to do it.

    But yeah.....it's mostly fake, mostly scripted, but not entirely. I did watch it in the mid/late 80's, and knew it to be mostly fake. :D

    And, yeah....some of these fans are WAAAAAYYY into it far too much. :(

    Way back when I had a lawn maintenance business,we use to cut the Ga. mountain center weekly.The wraslers would usually show up while we were blowing down the sidewalks.You may want to sit down..............but it is Indeed scripted (sorry).They would come out and yell for us to turn off our blowers.
    We would take a seat,and listen to the likes of the Nature Boy scream,and yell a skit...then a few minutes later a retake of the same yelling script. It was funny,time consuming,and alot of those guys are Giants in real life!! and really shitty people/roids i rekon.. The Steiner Bros. lived it.Always showed up in a Limo,and a shit ton of strippers! God bless em..

    I remember this exchange on Politically Incorrect.

    Bill Maher: "So Randy, is wrestling fake?"

    Randy Savage: "Only when I lose!"

    A little over 20 years ago I worked in the returns dept
    at a huge office supply chain and we used to sell these
    tables in huge numbers.

    We often got them back damaged and would sell them
    for salvage. We sold hundreds of them to Killer Kowalski
    for use at his wrestling school in N. Andover, MA so they
    could practice smashing guys down on them.

    Women's Roller Derby is still around in Boston. My favorite team is the Wicked Pissahs.

    The physical aspect of it is incredible, what they did, how far they jumped, the damage to the body, but imagine watching motogp knowing that the winner of the race is already determined, in fact the entire season is determined, and the riders are giving interviews of how they’re gonna beat this guy or that guy, they got beef with this dirty rider etc….and the fans are eating it up…you’d look at those fans sideways too.

    It's entertainment. They didn't actually shoot King Kong
    off of the Empire State Building either.
