The Linguini Occurrence Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Watching sports entertainment is like watching any other tv show or a movie.Does anybody watch a movie and complain about how fake or scripted it is?Movies appear a lot more realistic, when there's a fight in the movies you don't see a guy pretending to be stunned by a punch that never came within less than an inch of him.

SoulMonster Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Watching sports entertainment is like watching any other tv show or a movie.Only if that "any other" movie is of semi-naked muscle men who fondle each other.I guess this tells us a little about your movie preferences and bias.

Lithium Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 http://www.wrestlingclassics.com/fe/fe-differencebetween.htmlTLDR. My point is that wrestling is for people who marry their cousins and spend their spare time shooting at beer cans in the woods. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apollo Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 (edited) Haven't watched wrestling in ages. But I have to admit, when I was younger, I dug it. Saw 2 wrestling shows in person(not TV). Saw Andre the Giant in 1984. And in 1986 saw Hulk Hogan vs Rowdy Roddy Piper. It was a lot of fun.But I grew out of it.Same.As a kid I was addicted.Roddy Piper was the greatest ever.My grandpa was addicted as well, so as a kid we went to a lot of matches, which were always in these small gyms that fit about 300 people and weren't the big stadium spectacles you have today. You could get right beside the walkway to the ring and yell at the villians or high five the favorites. Got to see Chief Wahoo McDaniels, all the Von Erich brothers, Tully Blanchard, The Briscos, the Iron Shiek, Dusty Rhoads - a lot of the old classics like those guys.But as a 10 year old you think it is all real and you believe all the story lines.Once you hit your teens and find out it's all fake........then it loses all of its appeal.It is a little strange to see adults watching it. Kind of like how all little kids love eating at McDonalds. But then you get a little older.....and realize it's crap.

batman007 Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 I have know it's scripted since I was a kid, but still chose to enjoy it. Even though it's scripted, they put their bodies through a lot. Something I'm sure the OP wouldn't be able to do in his sleep. It's a story being told live between a bad guy vs a good guy. If you don't like it, fine. To question why someone has an opinion on liking something ,that has always been the weirdest shit to me. Just because you don't like it, doesn't mean it's wrong to like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Facekicker Posted October 28, 2013 Author Share Posted October 28, 2013 Even though it is fake why do so many adults behave otherwise? I get why kids like it and get excited about it but watching a grown man in tight pants rolling around on the floor with another guy is strange. Especially when it is pretend fighting. Sacha Baron Cohen illustrated it well in his documentaryhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=adfV9Dbrtrw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DR DOOM Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Because it's good to have a toss over, of course.Nah, I don't care about the modern stuff but the 80's and 90's glory days of WWF and WCW were great...its not high art or anything.
