Same here.....In my days I was a deadly fan of WWF....HBK, Breat Hurt, Sting.................Ufffff I just missed those days. No matter what they all were just fake.....but I used to take a nice high from that.....Lol I missed those days.
WWE is fake, but it's danger for children to watch it, without their parents or adults... so many cases that child had broken legs, hands, etc... because of they "play" WWE...
As said, it's fake, but the fatalities are real, this was confirmed many, many years ago. People question why people watch it when it's fake, but it's for the entertainment, like a movie. The chairs, tables etc are all specially made too, so they break/dent more easily so it minimizes the pain for the wrestlers.
One thing is for sure, you have to admire the adaptability of the marketing strategies. Anyone that used to watch Jimmy "Superfly" Snooka and George "The Animal" Steel basically had a front row seat as to how to effectively market a product. I haven't personally done any research, but I'm sure there are many lessons in marketing which could be applied various ways. I personally don't like it (did when I was a kid), but you have to admire the achievements.
I did lots of research on the WWE and how they work it and what they do is they have a special algorithm where they input data on the wrestler and determine who wins the match that way. The wrestlers just get paid to entertain the audience by making it look real. What lots of people do not know is that a wrestler can get suspended for not performing properly, meaning that if they do not give a great performance then they are suspended for 1 day without pay. Some have been suspended for months at a time such as the infamous MC Foley! As for the ECW this is also planned out but in another case the fighters are forced to sign a waver to be able to fight fairly violently.
Yes and Writer of WWE script do write on the bases of audience's choice. All fights are fake and we can clearly find it.
Somehow there are people known as hardcore fans who wants to believe so much in this that they are willing to brush aside the claim. Anyway, everybody knows it's fake. No doubt about that.
IMO WWE wrestling is totally fake... a few year back i saw a program on star world in which wrestling trick were being exposed!
heh its been a fact for a long long time ;p i knew it when i was a kid, not that i was a fan, just watched some when flipping through channels
