It's great entertainment though. Everyone knows it's fake it all about the coreography and the characters and stuff. But still, I elbow drop my room mate when we smash things over eachother, like chairs.

Fake is not the right word to describe wrestling, staged is more apropriate.

They do not fake getting their faces smashed with a chair, they do not fake bleeding, they don't fake jumping off of a 15 foot ladder onto a table, they don't fake flipping off the top rope and landing on their stomach. The only thing they fake are the punches and kicks, everything else is full contact.

They are some of the best pure athletes in the world to do what they do.

the best pure athletes in the world are soccer players and triathletes.

That is bull, they may have the best endurance, but you have to remember that wrestling requires the most well rounded skills out of all sports. They must have great endurance (they wrestle almost every night), they must be extremely strong and powerful (lifting full grown men over their heads constantly, even men that way more then they do). Not to mention tough (they have to get punched and beaten and thrown around night after night,a nd still, they endure and keep doing it) Plus they have to have some acting ability, they have to remember lines, and remember what storylines they are participating in.

All in all, wrestler don't get the respect they deserve.

they are all on steroids.....its not like they have scripts to memorize...after all, it is wrestling, not schindlers list......they are athletes, but anyone can get thrown around....my manager is a trained martial artist, but he has let himself go lately.....he can still do backflips and somersaults at will.

They are not on steroids, they are tested regularly for them, and the ones that are found positive are thrown out of the business.

Plus im not just talking summer saults, they have to really take a beating constantly, I dunno if you've ever watched wrestling, but they really get beaten up these days. They get thrown through tables, dropped on their spines, and they do it day in and day out, nearly every single day of the year.

being tough and strong have nothing to do with being a good athlete. i am both and am not an athlete. there is so much money in the biz that i am sure they have ways of doing roids and getting around the tests.

the best athletes in the world are gymnists. And asian martial artists, i mean the asian schools of certain arts. These people go to these schools and stay there whole lives practicing martial arts, almost like budist monks but without the religoun. Wushu masters are GOD damn incredible. They not only master there art but also coreography. i never knew it was possible for a human being to pounce 6 feet in the air from a standing posistion untill i watched a wushu demonstration

As i said, wrestlers also have great endurance, it is extremely tiring to run around in the ring every day picking people up.

jet li studied wushu for his entertainment career. he still studied for 3 years though.

I dont think anyone doubts wrestlers as being top athletes. I wouldnt go as far to say there some of the best in the world though, just masters of there profession.

it takes endurance to run up and down a full size soccer field non stop......it takes strength to do what wrestlers do....i am sure some of them are great athletes, but they are FAR from being world class.

Yes, but unlike soccer players, they are stron as well, they don't break their legs when they step in a little ditch or kick a ball the wrong way.
