Big Blue 06 195 Posted July 28, 2015 When people say wrestling is fake, I believe that they're talking about how it's scripted, like a regular TV show. I don't think anyone doubts just how much risk these people are exposing themselves to, or how dangerous it can be. By the way, that broken nose is a particularly ugly one.

Just happened last night too. Seth Rollins has a history of hurting people too. WWE banned him from using curb stomp because it was too dangerous. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Patriotsfatboy1 1,432 Posted July 28, 2015 I actually saw it happen. Rollins looks like he is not real careful in the ring, although a few of the punches he threw before that clearly missed their mark. Supposedly, Cena has a reputation for being heavy handed as well, so maybe it is karma. By the way, "fake" just means that it is pre-determined, scripted and practiced beforehand. Wrasslin' is 100% fake. Now, they can and do get hurt because there are accidents and it is dangerous even though it is fake. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vikings4ever 496 Posted July 28, 2015 Vicious. Just happened last night too. Seth Rollins has a history of hurting people too. WWE banned him from using curb stomp because it was too dangerous. He never actually hurt anyone with it. The WWE banned it because they're facing a concussion lawsuit and the move looks vicious. Doesn't make much sense, but lawyers...

DanXIII 8 Posted July 28, 2015 And duh people can still get hurt even though it's fake performance art. Just look at The Bachelorette. 100% fake but those roses have thorns and people can die. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kopy 491 Posted July 28, 2015 Remember when Jerry Lawler was feuding with Andy Kaufman? 100% REAL! Not sure if people know this or not. But Kaufman loved wrestling sooooo much. For all the work he ever did in the industry. He never once took any money for doing it. When he died and his assets were gone through. He had all the checks that Jerry Lawler and Jerry Jarrett ever wrote him, in a folder uncashed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vuduchile 1,941 Posted July 28, 2015 Never understood the attraction. Muscle-headed wannabe athletes performing stunts in a ring. How is this even remotely watchable? There are a million ways to ACCIDENTALLY break someone's nose. Failing to pull a stunt punch correctly is only one of them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tanatastic 2,061 Posted July 28, 2015 What a bonehead move by Rollins. He has to be more careful, even tho that is a tough move to sell. A knee to the face is pretty much a knee to the face any way you slice it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
