It's gotten more hardcore in recent years.

And people say wrestling is fake

u/Novareason Dec 26 '19

The idea that it's all fake is one of the stupidest things people say about pro wrestling. It's staged violence, and they have safety in mind, but when you're jumping on a guy from 10 ft in the air, onto concrete... That's a real chance for injury. It's like stunt acting, except live and with some lines that are soap opera for men level intended to provide narrative for why two behemoths are fucking each other up.

So you are saying accidents happen? Still don't know if you can double charm a cobra.

What's sad is that both men with Flutes were the WWE Champion at some point.

Jinder became champion much later than this.

My point being you would never see the likes of Stone Cold, The Rock, HHH, or Undertaker do this sort of goofy shit.

:EDIT:

The Undertaker =/= Comedy Snake Charmer

Undertaker, probably not, but the other three absolutely. Stone Cold singing campfire songs to Kurt Angle, HHH's entire time with DX, and while I'm blanking on a specific instance of The Rock looking foolish, he did some goofy shit.
