The thing about Wrestling is, it isn't fake. It's pre-determined - those uys are still taking bumps. It's just they're stuntmen, but they don't get a crash mat and they only get one attempt at it. People like HBK, Eddie Gurrero, Kurt Angle, Edge, Jericho and CM Punk are brilliant at this. If they would stop having retarded storylines like "Vince McMahon is dead" and hire someone like Paul Heyman to book it, they'd have one hell of a show on their hands.

Paul Heyman is the single most underrated man in wrestling. Ever. That guy is pure genius.

Fake is not real at all!!

Pre-determined is that they know who's going to win before the match, but when Jeff Hardy jumps off a 15' ladder, he doesn't have a rope attached to him, he's jumping 15'!! you simply can't fake a jump.

Hey!Theres people,other than me who dont think wrestling is fake :banana

I couldnt agree with you guys more :bow:

Wrestling sucks these days. All their "superstar roster" is pure rubbish.
How can John Cena (who before he was all gangsta performed in y-fronts), Batista (who was simply in Triple-H's Evolution now he is a contending champion), and Chris Jericho (was a laughing stock back in the old days, Intercontinental Title was all he could hope for), compare to the likes of Lex Luger, Hulk Hogan, Andre The Giant, The Rock, Stone Cold Steve Austin, Mankind, Kane (Masked), Keven Nash, Scott Hall, The Ultimate Warrior, Jake "The Snake" Roberts, The Million Dollar Man, The Old Style Shawn Michaels, Owen Hart, Billy Gunn, Bret Hart, etc.

there's a 46 year old guy where i got laid off from , we would go over to his house for BBQs and he would have wrestling on and someone who do a chop to the throat and he would yell "you can't fake that !" . he was convinced wrestling was 100% real no matter what we said . to me wrestling is entertainment , and alot more enjoyable than 99% of those so called reality shows out there.

The Undertaker is the last well performing wrestling legend IMO.

When I went to a Smackdown tour a few years ago, I gave The Undertaker the  :thumbsup: and he gave me the  :thumbsup: which I thought was cool.  :bow:

Most of those wrestlers in your list are pure shit :lol: IMO, of course :shy: But people like Jericho, who were the underdogs before, are quite rightly taking their places as champions. People like Jericho, Edge and Christian all deserve it. Batista and John Cena however, don't. They are shit at wrestling, and shouldn't be considered championship material.

But please no-one ever mention Hulk Hogan in a positive light again - that man is an absolute penis. No-one has done more to hurt the wrestling business than Hogan. he might have been great for it back in the 80's, but he's so full of shit he has it written into his contract he doesn't ever have to lose if he doesn't want to. And he never wants to. even if he could put someone else over by losing to them and the beating them at the next pay per view, he doesn't. He's also shit at wrestling. People like Mick Foley understand that you need to lose for the good of the company, and therefore yourself. And Shawn Michaels gets big ups for his match against HOgan at summerslam (which he was scheduled to win, and then lose to Hogan later, but Hogan demanded he win it) where he made a joke of the whole thing. What a legend :bow:

Stone Cold was amazing,but yeah I agree on the rest.I like that the underdogs are taking over as champions,Im tired of seeing Cena and Batista as champs.

I cant help but kinda agree,he overexposed it.I mean,I like his wrestling but he turned it into something it shouldnt have been.I dont really care for Mick Foley,the last good thing he did was with the match with Edge at WM22.Yeah,that was one of HBK's best matches even though he lost.Whcih it was ovibous he was gonna lose.I didnt know he was supposed to win. :hmpf

Yeah,but the Montrel(spellcheck)Screwjob ruined his career IMO,and how he threw a fit about it.Then going to WCW and threatening to take the WCW Title with him and leave

I'm really glad to see all these people who understand that the WWE is predetermined, not fake, and can appreciate the entertainment value it gives to all it's fans. Don't just bash it and say UFC is the way to go, cuz it's 2 completely different things. One is pure fighting and the other is entertainment with comedy and storylines.  Both companies are just trying to run their own business!

For all you naysayers against the WWE, let your comments flow, and they'll continue to do what they do best, and entertain there fans.

WWE Raw tomorrow!! Dusty Rhodes guest host!!
