Is Wrestling (WWE) Real Or Not?

its a mixture of both because people get injured when perfroming moves, but its fake because everything is organized, i've had the pleasure of being in the front row seat at a wrestling even and some of them were pretty real and painful, like when they get thrown out of the ring or hit with a chair.

It's fake in that the matches are scripted and outcome is known in advance.

It is real in that the moves being performed (excepting body hits and being beat by chairs and whatnot) are real.  Those backflips, real.  Think about it.  A 200+lb guy.  These are huge guys.  Doing backflips! Jumping off rope, real.  Flipping a 200lb guy in the air (even though he's helping) very real.

excerpts:

The Montreal Screwjob was the real life double-crossing of the defending WWF Champion, Bret Hart, by Vince McMahon, the owner of what was then the World Wrestling Federation (WWF), during the main event match of the professional wrestling pay-per-view event Survivor Series held on November 9, 1997 at the Molson Centre (now Bell Centre) in Montreal, Quebec. A secret change of the match's pre-determined finish (known as a "screwjob" in professional wrestling parlance) was devised by McMahon and discussed with Hart's match opponent, Shawn Michaels. The plan was executed when the match referee, Earl Hebner, under orders from McMahon, called for the bell to ring and ended the match as Michaels held Hart in the Sharpshooter submission hold (Hart's signature finishing move), even though Hart had not submitted. Michaels was declared the victor by submission and crowned as the new WWF Champion, even as Hart and the audience demonstrated their outrage.

The reason for the screwjob was rooted in Hart's decision to leave McMahon's company for its chief competitor, World Championship Wrestling (WCW). Hart, who cited a clause in his contract that granted him "reasonable creative control", was steadfast in his refusal to lose a match hosted in his home country, Canada, especially against Shawn Michaels, with whom he did not get along. McMahon remained insistent that Hart should lose to Michaels in Montreal, fearing that his company's business would suffer if WCW announced Hart as its latest signing while he still held the WWF Championship title. Although Hart and McMahon agreed to a compromise on the match ending that allowed Hart to retain the title, McMahon was determined to remove the title from Hart.

The far-reaching impact of the incident led to its adoption as a theme in matches and storylines of the WWF's Attitude Era and the creation of the popular character, "Mr. McMahon", the evil boss. Hart was ostracized from the WWF, while McMahon and Michaels continued to receive angry responses from audiences for many years. However, the relationship between Hart and McMahon later healed, culminating in Hart's induction on April 1, 2006 into the company's Hall of Fame.

Wresting has ALWAYS been fake, even from the days of Mighty Igor and Hulk Hogan.  These guys are paid actors and everyone knows it.  Fans watch it for entertainment.

If an ADULT can  ask this question and get these massive responses and explanations, i guess i should start another very interesting thread.

IS SOCCER REAL OR ACTED?

I'm serious ;DPls reply!!!

Footbal isn't wrestling, for ur own sake don't ask that kindda question, u'll get roasted

@ Poster: Have u ever wondered why the bookies don't bet on wrestling, i mean every other sport is bet on why not wrestling, because its predetermined

YES, ITS AS REAL AS " terminator, anaconda, rambo 1st, 2nd, 50th blood"

I always believe its real until 1999.

Since then i lost interest completely.

I remember when few of them came to Ibadan many years ago. Mighty Igor and co were lodge at KS motel in total garden.

Tome, bye-bye wrestling  

Wrestlers are pretty much stunt men, in as much as wrestling aint real, wrestlers are trained to take hits, minor hits not major hits.
All these talk about sledge hammers n chairs are all stunts, why do u think HHH is the only wrestler that uses a hammer, thats because he's the only one who knows how to use it.
Come on if u got hit by a hammer for real u would become a vegetable, it may look like a sledge hammer strike but in actual sense, the hammer never connected like we're fooled to believe, that why its called entertainment.

Stunts like thumb tacs n broken glass are real, thats why very few wrestlers get involved with such, besides when performed well enough, u only get minor injuries, which these wrestlers are happy to do all in the name of entertaining their fans.

Like i said wrestlers are stunt men who are built to take hits thats why the likes of rey mysterio can take hit after hit and still come back next week like nothing happened.

There is definetly pain associated with wrestling hence the "Don't try this at home" warning but it is so not a sport and cannot be taken seriously, its just entertainment

The fights are real
The fighters are real people-[sub][/sub]not robots
The stage is real
The blood, chairs, weapons used are real
The injuries are real
The crowd is real

What more can be real there?

everything is not real. the fight is not all that really, they practice the moves, the blood ain't real, and the injuries are not real but of course the money and entertainment are real.

everyone knows it fake. anybody can fake an injury.
