Have you ever argued on wrestling with your friends and
family or seen people arguing if the so called wrestling we
watch is real or fake? I mean is it direct fight or its been
acted? Or better still Are World wrestling Entertainment
(WWE), formally known as World Wrestling Federation
(WWF), fights for real or a mere acting? We watch them
bleed, using chairs and other
dangerous objects, yet there is controversy over the
genuineness of the game. Some say it’s just an acting to
entertain while some argue all we watch on TV is real.
Characters created by the wrestlers and their promoters are
written into a story that provides general guidelines for how
the match is to be
conducted and how it is supposed to end.
In WWE, the matches are fixed. The winner is decided based
on the popularity of the wrestler and the fan response. WWE
is like a drama
with wrestlers playing different roles. All the matches are
based on a carefully written script. Chair blows, super kicks,
the wrestler writhing in pain etc. are all part of the drama.
WWE wrestlers are skilled professionals who deliver their
finishing moves in the safest possible way. But accidents do
happen and they result in injuries and blood.
In this sense, WWE wrestling is
entertainment, that’s why they change from WWF to WWE to
portry the E that stand for ENTERTAINMENT. Just as a
movie or a stage play would be, Many people pay to watch
this entertainment, knowing full well that it is scripted while
some don’t know.
Does that means that wrestling is fake? Its true that its been
acted and determined and the moves are choreographed.
Wrestlers aren’t really trying to beat up and injure each other.
The wrestlers enemies in the ring are really best friends, and
the outlandish stories sorrounding the characters are usually
not true. However calling wrestling “fake” is like calling an
action movie fake. When you see a movie, you know that the
actor didn’t really jump a burning car over an exploding
bridge, but you are still entertained.
Most wrestlers are exceptional athletes who train for many
hours each day to maintain their physical condition. They
practise for years to learn the moves and how to execute them
safely while still making it looks dangerous.
At this point I know you must have a say on this issue. Do
you believe its real, acted, fake, drama, choreography? What’s
your take and let’s hear your view via the comment box.
