I've never understood the attraction to wrestling. Everyone knows the stories are fake, and the fighting is scripted. . .what's the point?

The same could be said about Soap operas, yet people watch them. Wrestling is just that, a male soap opera.

I don't really watch wrestling anymore but the same thing can be said of tv shows and movies. Doesn't stop people from watching those.

Damn you

Wrestling being dumb has nothing to do with it being scripted. It's dumb because it's fuging dumb.

you watch movies right?

Sure, and I enjoy the benefit of varied genres, actors, time periods, environments, musical scores, directorial styles, screenplays, special effects, themes, and even languages. Wrestling = a bunch of sweaty muscle-dudes talk a lot of junk, dance around a ring pretending to fight, repeat ad inifinitum. After one year of wrestling what else can you possibly see?

The Rock beasted on Cena. It was nice to see him back in action after all these years.

[SpeedOFLight]

I didn't realize how many people still following wrestling until I walked into kickback jacks in greensboro where I heard various chants and men screaming lol.

[Future of the Funchise]

i don't really follow it anymore, i just watch the royal rumble and wrestlemania. still play the games tho. the smackdown series is awesome.

If people don't like wrestling, that's one thing, but when their reasoning is that it's fake, that's when their argument becomes ignorant. If you have ever watched a movie or TV show in your life, it's the same exact thing. People don't watch it because they actually think it's real. That's ridiculous. It's entertainment. It's a spectacle. And it takes a great deal of athleticism to pull off what those guys pull off. And while the matches are predetermined and storylines are scripted, the wrestlers still get banged up inside the ring. They still feel pain. If you still have to ask yourself why people are fans of wrestling, there's probably nothing anyone can tell you to change your mind about it. But to just say "it's fake", that's ridiculous. When you watch a movie, do you point out everything thing in the movie as being fake as well? No, you suspend disbelief for 2 hours and just enjoy yourself.

I havent watched wrestling in like 8 years but think of the business sense it makes. You have the brainless girls that watch Jersey Shore and 18 and Pregenant, well you also have the brainless guys that need their share of the same thing suited for guys.

people still watch wrestling? lol wow
