Someone told me that all are fake.
Do they fight in real or just acting?

Thank you all for sharing opinions.. I was really unsure

[sage2021]

Many years ago I met a man who worked for a well known newspaper.

I was at an actual wrestling match when I met him.

He said that the results of the matches are already in the Sunday newspaper and this was on Saturday night when he said that to me.

He also said that the wrestlers have to have a circus 🎪 license because they are entertainers.

Thank you for the MHO 🙂

It's fake but it's entertaining

[NathanDavis]

it's more of a choreography...

there's a plan, there's a script... there's practice

but the physicality of it is very real... definitely don't try it at home

[wkhan_87]

Thank you for your input

[NathanDavis]

most welcome

Bro... have you watched real fighting before at all? WWF is fake as fuck. I'm not trying to be mean but... your IQ sub 100 or something?

[wkhan_87]

I was really not sure about it

[madhatters4]

the moves are real. they do there best to protect each other. the outcomes are predetermined.

people get hurt plenty. but they are not fighting for real

[MonopolyGuy]

Yes they are fake and do lots of fake fighting 😅 they do not use real ladder to hurt each other common 😆

[wkhan_87]

Why are you using laughing emojis , i really need serious answer please,,
Do they fight fake?

[MonopolyGuy]

I said yes that’s why I am laughing

[wkhan_87]

Okay thanks

Ah, Brett the Hot Man Heart.

Real? No. Not like a baseball, soccer, football game. The moves are meant to look like real blows. They would immediately knock each other out if the were really hitting each other.

The moves are physical and they do injure each other sometimes. The outcomes are predetermined as for as the winners and loosers.

Except for the screw job on Brett Heart.

It's showfighting to perform a show according to their character's story arc.

[wkhan_87]

They don't fight in real?
As we see them fighting in very dangerous way?

[DryGermanGuy]

As mentioned, it's a show scripted by the franchise owners, acted out by fictional characters, like a daily soap, only with "fights".

"As in other professional wrestling promotions, WWE does not promote a legitimate sporting contest but rather entertainment-based mock combat performance theater, featuring storyline-driven, scripted, and partially choreographed matches."

Okay thanks 👍

[Massageman]

It's a well-choreographed and scripted progression of shows. The actors- in this case- just happen to be athletes.

[purplepoppy]

Just gonna to leave this here.

Don't know anything about WWF but in live wrestling I've noticed guys run in leaning back so a flying kick tips them over. Pretty fake.

[AviatorTom]

WWF is entertainment, it is not sport. The matches are planned, though there are occasional unexpected results.

[Hagar88]

Yes an no. Being slammed on to the mat im sure hurts even if youve trained how to land.

[exitseven]

No, if these guys really wanted ot do some damage there would be dead bodies all over the WWF

[Kingofkings1992]

Bro... come on man. Wrestling is so obviously fake. Anyone older than 12 should be able to discern that. If you wanna see real fights, watch UFC or boxing. Wrestling is pure acting, and very bad acting at that.

[Sal_Monella]

The outcomes are mostly predetermined. Nonetheless, they are very athletic and it is performance art.

[beefcakebradybatson]

When WWE superstar Koko B. Ware was in another federation, he beat up another wrestler who called him the "N" word.

[msc545]

No, of course not. These people are very skilled actors and gymnasts.

[slatyb]

It's all pretend.

[wkhan_87]

Thank you dude 🙏 ..
I was really unsure

[slatyb]

Not my thing, but it's not much different than an action movie with heros and bad guys.

[douride2]

It's all scripted.

[blackeagle007]

Definitely acting

[888theGreat]

they are stunt actors that take real falls
