Pro Wrestling, or what I prefer to call 'Entertainment wrestling' is a planned match where the outcome is pre-determined. However, Pro Wrestling isnt entirely 100% fake.
Fake is not the right work to describe it, it is called a 'work'. This mean you are working with your opponent (and referee, etc) to keep the crowed entertained. WWE's style of entertainment is really crap compared to the smaller promotions. Japan is best for Pro Wrestling in my opinion.
Anyway, there are matters and scenarios which can be considered real in Pro Wrestling. Although a match is pre-determined and you are not purposely hurting each other, there are going to be occassions where punches, kicks, slams connect.
Also take for example the bumps the wrestlers take. People dont see it like this because they think the ring is 'apparently' very soft and cushy. Nothing can be further from the truth. The mats are not as comfy as you think and when getting bodyslammed and clotheslined to the ground it really does take its toll on your body.
On another note, wrestlers are not just doing 1 or 2 matches a week, they are wrestling practically EVERYDAY meaning they get no time to heal. This is why wrestlers resort to painkillers or other forms of 'enhanced performance' drugs.
Sure, Pro Wrestling isnt 100% real, but the case of getting hurt or injured is highly likely.... even dangerous things can happen. Steve Austin has broke his neck for example because of a piledriver by Owen Hart.
For those people that says wrestling is 'fake' is okay with me, but until you get in the ring and do 2 matches everyday for 2 weeks, you wont truely understand the beatings and the dangers that I have been through. --- THAT WAS JUST 2 WEEKS ---
I use to do the Pro Wrestling stuff, and I decided to leave it because the business itself is a lying, backstabbing peice of crap! I am confident to say that the WWE isnt all as nice as it makes out, even Vince McMahon!! It is all about greedy promoters making money, and unfortunately the wrestlers that make good money for the company are the crappy ones!!!
Also, in todays Pro Wrestling, it is more about gimmicks, high flying - high risk crap. The 'art' of Pro Wrestling is nearly dead, and that is the sort I favour (look into Japan guys!!!). Today, I do the real Submission Wrestling/Cage fight training stuff and today I dont disrespect the Pro Wrestling, pre-determined stuff. Pro Wrestlers go through hell just to entertain, and although I class them crazy, I give them respect also.
Pro Wrestling may not be real, and the Pro Wrestlers itself may not be real....
I dont like how the Pro Wrestling system is run, but I do respect the wrestlers and what they do... and I take my hat off for what they do to their bodies!!

A-lot of the stuff is like falls/hits..but what you need to remember, most of these guys are either friends or just tolerate each other because it is acting..It is set before they come out who will win and usually how. If they truly get pissed off and some of them do, there are consequences..Guys do get hurt but it's usually by accident.. Just watch when one of them punches the other, it's real ,but fake in the fact that they have been taught how to take a punch ,and how to throw one without hurting each other..I do know this stuff for a fact my Dad used to do this and my cousin still is doing it!

Nothing.
Neverthless the acronym WWE means World Wrestling Enterteinment...
But it's a very enjoying show. I see it live in Italy (I'm Italian) last friday, and I had a lovely time.
The Wrestler I prefer is Ray Mystirio.

The athletisism is real: everything else is scripted: feuds, fights, etc...
,, but I still love it anyway: just consider it a form of semi-improvisational performance art
(I'm watching Monday Night RAW as I type this).

No it is like watching a play or soap opera. I call it the Male Soap Opera. Though the punches and wrestling are very real, they are all acting and choreographed.
