I used to like it when I was younger. Kane was my favourite, before he ditched the mask.

When I stumble across WWE on youtube or somewhere these days it seems so cheesy.

I don't like it at all, why do they need to be so angry-ish x_x Even when its just for show.

To me wrestling comes across as entertainment not a sport.

That's why it's called World Wrestling Entertainment.

Actual wrestling sports are:
Greco-Roman Wrestling
Freestyle Wrestling

Both are Olympic disciplines.

Real wrestling is fun.

I can watch amateur or real wrestling, as it is a sport and does not resemble pro wrestling, which is blood "entertainment".

WWE is gross and way too theatrical. I like MMA better, if only because of the variety.
Play wrestling with my brothers is fun though. Sort of like exercise, but with more bruises :D And it boosts my ego when I win! :lol:

Things like the WWE are just so boring and fake to me. The acting is embarrassing, really.

I think professaional wrestling is dumb because it is fake. Don't get me wrong, these guys that toss each other around work extremely hard. Wrestling is an occupation just like everything else where money is earned. Also these guys toss each other around just to convince us that it is real, go to these wrestling schools to learn all the moves and how not to hurt each other. They also learn to give the appearance of bloodying each other up when in fact they have capsules full of red lequid that is broken. I've had a chance to see a few on these wrestling schools on TV some years ago.


But, I do love to watch amatuer wrestling.

I love to jump off a roof on top of passerbys and strut around after while flexing. I find traditional wrestling to be too male-male friendly. I am not sure why coed wrestling isn't more popular.

I get kinda grossed out because I don't see how they can stand all that touching in/near personal areas--another reason I quit ballet--and the various BO's. :eew:
