bassdocktor Posted January 3, 2007 Posted January 3, 2007 I'm guessing you mean like wwe? If so I do. Alot of times it's so stupid that it's entertaining. I've pretty much always watched it and went to Wrestle Mania 8 quite awhile ago. Again I know it's stupid but it's still fun to watch with dad on Monday nights. Quote
tipptruck1 Posted January 3, 2007 Posted January 3, 2007 I watch it ever friday and monday. Iam not a big fan but theres really nothing better on. But iam hardly ever home for the show thats on friday. If you want reall fighters watch the ufc on spike. Quote
Vyron Posted January 3, 2007 Posted January 3, 2007 I used 2 be crazy for wwe raw wwe smackdown tna nwa ecw wcw specially for the wwe i would say they did wrong management/decisions but now , I find it just boring pride is the real thing , i also like ufc Quote
Low_Budget_Hooker Posted January 3, 2007 Posted January 3, 2007 "like wrestling I do" Yoda? Vyron,...I used to have such respect for you......lol ;D Quote
Valascus Posted January 3, 2007 Posted January 3, 2007 To each their own I guess, but I can't stand wrestling...its nothing more than a soap opera for dudes...and there is just something about watching two (or more) overgrown, sweaty men in tights hugging and touching all over each other that I find...hmmmmm...whats the word...disgusting.

Super User SPEEDBEAD. Posted January 3, 2007 Super User Posted January 3, 2007 Pride and the UFC are real, no doubt. But I wouldnt want any of those wrestling moves used on me in any way. Some of that stuff HAS TO HURT, BAD!!!! Wayne Quote
BASS fisherman Posted January 3, 2007 Posted January 3, 2007 "like wrestling I do" Yoda? I lost it when I read that LBH, too funny. Quote
John J. Posted January 3, 2007 Posted January 3, 2007 I like the WWE, even though it's fake. Like the others say it is not real but it is better than nothing else on. I look forward to UFC just like tipptruck said. As far as real life wrestling such as Judo and school wrestling I enjoy watching those. I just like watching guys on WWE like Rey Mysterio and many of the cruiserweights who are very athletic and quick. I also like the power guys such as Hulk Hogan, Batista, HHH, The Rock, etc. on how HUGE they are! I mean they could lift me with one finger lol! (I am only 135 pounds...) With the power moves they do, they could easily break me in half lol!!! ;D I would like to meet one of the stars and maybe get in the ring once, but as far as real life and actually hurting someone, WWE is F-A-K-E! For A Kid's Entertainment ;D Quote
Deuceu72 Posted January 3, 2007 Posted January 3, 2007 Wrestling is NOT fake............It's scripted..............There is a difference............Anyone who watched Triple H's quad muscle roll up his leg a few years ago would never say that it was fake................Or watched Sid Vicious break his leg, that wasnt very fake either............Scripted, not fake. What's your favorite movie? Guess what, it's FAKE! It's entertainment is all it's is..................and a multi-billion dollar business I might add. People take it wayyyy too seriously. It all in fun. and obviously, I do watch, but only on Monday..................... Quote

Gives me chills just thinking about it. Wayne Quote
Deuceu72 Posted January 4, 2007 Posted January 4, 2007 That Sid leg break was nasty!!!!! How he managed to "fake" that is beyond me! ;D ;D ;D Quote
bassdocktor Posted January 4, 2007 Posted January 4, 2007 I never saw the HHH thing but I remeber the Sid thing off the top rope and snap. If anyone has watched redently there was the ladder incident with Joey Mercury getting hit in the face. That was pretty bad too. Quote
Low_Budget_Hooker Posted January 4, 2007 Posted January 4, 2007 Stuntmen (essentially what these steroid freaks are) get hurt at work all the time. Granted, it's not fake but the helicopter lure is real too. : Quote

It all in fun. and obviously, I do watch, but only on Monday..................... Did you not see the Acronym I made? I wasn't saying it was literally FAKE, I was using it as an acronym... Of course I don't see wrestling being 100% fake, there are a few things that question weither it is really a 100% hit though... The punches unfortunately are thought out and are basically light jabs, the chair shots are 75% of the time blocked (never a full head shot), and it seems like the ring bounces like a trampoline... Now there's many things that are real... 1.) You can't fake falling off the Hell In the Cell cage mage that Mic Foley took! Nor jumping off the turnbuckle/cage/etc. 2.) You certainly can't fake the moves, slamming a person down, gravity takes over, there's no holding back 3.) Some of the shots are real, like bassdocktor said with the ladder that actually cause damage 4.) and certainly there's always a risk of breaking a body part. I remember when my Fav. wrestler Chris Benoit broke his neck. Or when Batista dis-located his shoulder, etc. I tell ya there are many people buying tickets! ECW is a brand of the WWE where all is legal, chair shots, tables, ladders, etc. The WWE have the PPV events which host the extreme rules theme, but ECW has a match like that EVERY TUESDAY NIGHT! Boxing and UFC are 100% real, these men are truly trained martial artists and there is no holding back with them, WWE however has some not all hold backs but it still don't keep me from watching it lol! ;D I am not taking your response personally Deuceu, nor should you take mine; but I used F-A-K-E as an acronym. It was just MPO. (My Personal Opinion) God bless! Sincerely, John J. AKA 12 gauge (yeah I changed the name) Quote
Deuceu72 Posted January 4, 2007 Posted January 4, 2007 No offense taken my friend.................It's all kewl. Most people share your opinion so its kewl. Frankly, i dont know why i continue to watch it, but I do............ of course, having Maria and Torrie doesnt hurt! ;D ;D Quote

Frankly, i dont know why i continue to watch it, but I do............ of course, having Maria and Torrie doesnt hurt! ;D ;D Probably the same reason we break out the old Kiss albums,....it's what we grew up with! Meet , meet ya in the ladies room.... Quote

Frankly, i dont know why i continue to watch it, but I do............ of course, having Maria and Torrie doesnt hurt! ;D ;D Indeed! The Divas certainly make WWE interesting! Especially the Bra and Pannies match! Whoo whoo! It's kind of like Ric Flair's WOOO! but instead... WOOOOOOOOOT! ;D I am still bummed that Trish Stratus quit...man she was hot! Canadian but HOT! Man even to this day I dream of being a WWE wrestler! Walking out on stage with millions of people calling my name, and jamming to my entrance song, and perform like ever before! Unfortunatley as tall and skinny as I am, WWE stars like Umaga and The Undertaker would easily put me out lol! besides the youngest wwe superstar is Randy Orton, he's 20...that's 2.5 years older than me and yet he's 200 pounds and full of muscle. Me, I am just a scrawny kid, 5'11 weighing 135 pounds lol! I am perfect for high school wrestling, but not for WWE. We've got a weight bench and I've been working on it! Maybe one day I will fulfil my dream, then again I may find a job doing something else. Like agriculture wise such as being a shrimp farmer, or Wildlife Biologist. There's no telling what I may do or where I may go after college. Just need to cross that bridge when I get there! 8-) God bless fellas! Have a great evening! Quote
berkley Posted January 5, 2007 Author Posted January 5, 2007 well i know its fake stuff but i like them fighting in words not punches know i like seeing the size of them like big show umaga hulkster batista undertaker kane my favorites are stone cold john cena undertaker i like dx there funny but its fake when i want real fighting i look at chuck lideal and matt hughes Quote
John J. Posted January 5, 2007 Posted January 5, 2007 Its so fake,now boxing YEAH! UFC is more real than boxing... In boxing they have boxing gloves, etc. in UFC is hand to hand, foot to foot combat...nothing else other than a pair of shorts, shoes and a mouth piece. If they do wear gloves they are normal fingerless gloves (grip gloves if you will, for grappling) UFC is more interesting than boxing in MO, UFC is a mix martial art fighting match other than strike only like boxing. At least in UFC they have famous wrestling styles such as Judo, quick striking styles such as Kung Fu and Tae Kwon Do and finally reflexive and extensive styles that let you reach out to attack while guarding your body such as Kick Boxing. Judo is more interesting than all! Over powering someone and then making them either tap out or pass out to a submission move. I like the Guillotine Choke and/or the Triangle Choke. I'd rather see someone tap out then get knocked out, unless the knock out is an extremely agile and powerful strike such as a flying knee or spinning wheel kick! Quote
Rattlinrogue Posted January 5, 2007 Posted January 5, 2007 I used to watch it a little with my boys.They've grown up now ,and we don't watch that silly crap anymore. Quote
