who thinks the injuries in wrestling are real??? part 2!!!!!!?

Question

Ok guyz i was just seeing if you knew...... i realize that they are amazing atheletes... and they do need time off like i explained, and mark henry and batista, rey, etc. have legit injuries that happend away from the ring. SEriously, the captain charisma and jiwan (both people who entered answers to my question previosly) ok if dx didnt have any scars or severe brain damage it is so fake!!! i love wrestling and i love to watch it, however it is all scripted and fake. THey practice the matches over and over again, until it really looks like they get hurt!! It should be called pro faking instead of pro wrestling..... :-(

to adress the MVP case, those burns are so fake, he would not be alowed to compete if they were real.
and for joey mercury!!! come on, dont be gullible! You know how in movies wounds look real? they can use make-up and face putty to create that effect!!!!! he would still be in hospital plainning for reconstructive face surgery if that was the real case

Answer 1

I bet Owen Hart thinks they are pretty real right now.

Answer 2

Thats offensive to both the wrestlers AND the fans. I mean yes, there are some injuries that did not happen but there are good reasons as to say why they happened.
But there are also the ACTUAL injuries that happen to. I mean - okay, take Mick Foley (aka Cactus Jack)(aka Dude Love)(aka Mankind) for example - what about him? Hes got all the scars and the marks to prove it. He even has them when hes NOT wrestling or promoting it. If they use stuff like the movie peoples do then why would he wear it all the time eh? He wouldnt. Same with Sabu - Hes got the scars. You really think that hes gonna take the time to fake all those? And Hardcore Holly? Hulk Hogan? Flair? Batista? I mean come on. Seriously get a clue.

I understand that there are some that are fake. And Im sure that almost every wrestler fakes an injury or two, but for good reasons. There could be a health reason, family emergency, or maybe they needed a well deserved break. Ever think of that?

For people to say that theyre faking them is offensive to everyone involved in wrestling. The wrestlers, the owners, fans, announcers, EVERYONE!

As for D-Generation X...they both have many scars and marks from wrestling. Sometimes they the marks dont show as much as the others do. And sometimes they heal faster I mean come on. After a while, your body WILL start to heal itself faster. Think about it.

As for your 'idea' of calling it Pro Faking. Thats messed up. Most of these wrestlers dedicate their LIVES to making wrestling what it is, what its become, and what it will be, and you just sit there and say that? You need a reality check. 99% of them are on the road like 300 days or more a year, they barely get to see their families yet they STILL do it.

You need to think about what you say before you say it on some cases. As for what Ive said? Im aware of it all. And I feel that Im right and am sure that many people will agree with me. I know you have a right to an opinion, but I do too. And this is one time that I use that right to its fullest extent.

Answer 3

It's rather complex and difficult to tell in some cases.

You can generally know by the atmosphere if an injury is real or not. When it's really theatrical and a key part of a storyline and you really notice other characters being affected by someone's injury, then it's usually scripted.

When people's reactions are not theatrical and you see that they are awkwardly trying to stick to the plan and finish up a match or skit or whatever, then it's a "show must go on" situation where the injury is real but they decide to work around it.

So both types exist, but more and more it's difficult to tell them apart. Wrestling is a mysterious, compelling and truly entertaining world.

However, I do not condone of you using the term "fake" in relation to wrestling. No one would ever call a movie fake, nor would you ever think of calling a play, musical or any sort of staged event "fake". it's not fake, it is very real in the sense that it is real people that are performing a show for you and getting hurt, sometimes really, sometimes not.

Please try to be more open-minded about wrestling and stop calling it fake. It offends real fans like myself who know and understand it better than you do.

ok, well, I think that when you said that Joey Mercury's face is fake, your wrong. I mean, anything could happen in the WWE, like they said. You actually think that Joey Mercury's injury on the face is fake. Then, you really don't know what is fake or not. I mean, he couldn't put putty or whatever on face in less than three seconds. You saw the footage, I guess. He got hit, started to bleed rapidly, and then rolled out of the ring, and everybody got to see the swellen of the face and the crooked nose. For MVP's case. I am 50-50. Half of me says that that is real but the other half is telling me that it is fake. I, myself, is leaning more to real than fake, but everywhere I read about MVP's case, it said that it was kayfabe. Well, anyway, I think that the some injuries are real. I know wrestling is fake, but it can get real at times.

Answer 5

OK, I saw my first live match a few weeks ago, Armageddon, and yeah you can tell there's alot of acting and good athleticism, but there really were a few injuries. One was obviously accidental, during the ladder match with 4 teams. I mean, c'mon, blood is bound to flow with all that jumping around and hitting and stuff. Whether accidental or not, it was a damn good show and I had a wonderful time!! Not too big into watching it on tv, but seeing it live is totally awesome, even in the nosebleed seats! Will definitely go again!

Answer 6

If that Mercury thing was fake then how come the audience that was sitting right by the ring didn't see how "fake" It was.In movies they can edit and put makeup on just for that scene.I'm not gullible,I've seen alot of stuff that was fake and alot that was real.Wrestlers still work even though they are injured.Sometimes they get injured pretty bad.

Answer 7

This is the same question. With you saying the same crap. What's part 2 about it? Should I don't like what you guys said let me repeat it so I can get answers I like.

It may be scripted but once you get past that it's real. Some injuries may be fake. But they really get hurt.

Your an idiot saying the same crap just wanting us to agree with you. If you think this good don't watch and go away.

Answer 8

The Joey Mercury one was real because I don't think they could fake that eye thing like a minute after he got hit in the face with a steel ladder!

Answer 9

actually they are real....the joey mercury are real because it wasnt supposed to happen..and all burns are real and they CAN compete as long as its not too bad...now MVP im not sure about i didnt see that match.......plus i thought it was a broken nose....but the rest im not sure about most injuries i know that are real are like muscle surgies that Hulk Hogan and Lita and Matt Hardy had to get.....oh and they dont practice matches anymore dont u read books?.....they just go over matches when they plan it.....they never get to practice them thats how alot of stuff goes so wrong.....

Answer 10

Wrestling is still a sport...and they do hurt themselves from time to time...why do you think older wrestlers like Hulk Hogan have to have multiple knee and back surgeries!!!
