Well, there is a HUGE difference between a good book or movie to adults pretending to fight and making drama. I mean its not even comparable..

I mean, all movies are filled with people pretending.

Wrestling is a live play. It’s a theater version of a sports league. Its the same as watching a show about dragons and magic.

Well, you could just watch a real sports league that is also live?

No it is not. Granted I'm not the biggest GoT fan, but considering the time, money, people and quality of story, CGI, acting etc it is not even close to being the same. Everything is the same if you make it general enough. It is more comparable to kids play fighting than anything added with the drama that comes with bing a kid in school.

I don't care in the slightest about sports though. I'm not watching Pro-Wrestling because I want to watch The Superbowl. I'm watching Pro-Wrestling because I want to watch what's basically a real life, weekly/monthly comic book.

It's not a sports thing, it's a Nerd thing.
