How does it feel people that bash on professional wrestling...

[Iwontmakepromises]

I understand perfectly why people bash on pro wrestling, because it is simulated fighting, which is lame, and cloyingly melodramatic. That said, no reason to hate on the wrestlers themselves. As you pointed out, they are certainly tough and hard working.

People don't watch it because they think its real


Its a stage like theater acting. They are performers who can perform athletic moves.

wrestling is actually a celtic tradition. It started off as the men having fake battles and re-inacting battles that they had been in. Showing the women and children and adding theatrics to it. That evolved into modern wrestling, its why vince mcmahon has such a natural inclination to be a wrestling promoter. Because he is celtic, it is connected to his roots.

Doing pro wrestling doesn't magically make you worse as an athlete. The NFL players who have done pro wrestling didn't get worse at football. It's completely separate and irrelevant.

How many titles would Brock have without decades of steroid abuse?

If he trained in MMA out of college. Dude would have wrecked the UFC for like a decade.. He started at basically 30. He was 9 years removed from his best wrestling days.
