If wrestling wasn't choreographed, it would be attempted murder!

Absolutely it's fake and they'll even admit it is "choreographed." There is a law in Louisiana that makes fake wrestling matches illegal (seriously!) Check and see if they ever come down here for a match.

Don't say that to Killer Kowalski unless you want to be eviscerated.

Theres a reason it's called sports entertainment. They are still highly skilled and gifted athletes.

"Do You Think Wrestling Is Fake?"

.....

You're kidding, right? It's a soap opera with violence, and the wrestlers act about as well as soap opera actors - badly. Wrestling is amusing at times, but clearly not real.

Anyone who thinks that wrestling is real should read Bret Hart's book 'Hitman: My Real Life in the Cartoon World of Wrestling'. Get the facts straight from the horse's mouth!

Saying wrestling's not fake is like saying that Kate Moss needs to loose some weight.

I hate to burst your bubble, renochamp, but according to Bret 'The Hitman' Hart only some of the blood is real (cuts inflicted with shards of razors), and very little at that - the gushing type is good old theatrical blood.

Wow. Of course it is fake. It is a soap opera for men! Yes there are times they get hurt but come on if you watch it closely you can see sme of the guys actually cut them selves to look like they just got badly hurt.

You may want to double-check on that, mate. From EVERYTHING I've read, blood packs are really very rare in pro wrestling - though if they were ever used, it probably would have been in his era. Traditionally, the blood is indeed real, as a glance at practically any wrestler from the 70s' forehead will amply demonstrate. In the 1980s, blading did decrease substantially - in fact, Dusty Rhodes was released by the Crocketts for blading in a match with the Road Warriors. Blading wasn't really replaced by blood packs - the blood (except for "hardway" bleeding, which is accidental) was just generally kept to a minimum.
