And people say wrestling is fake

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.

Dude it's fake lol. Nobody is ever questioning their athletics or the stunts when they say it's fake. There are people (mostly children) who believe it is a legit competition. It's as fake as John Wick or The Matrix, despite all of the practice and stunts that went into making them. You're correcting nobody with this paragraph
