It's not actually different. No-one has specified what type of wrestling we're actually talking about.

that's diiferent though dude, that's MAT wrestling. it's entirely different, that's all about holds and technical skill... it's a lot closer to the origins of wrestling

hmmm... possibly, but without the stories, angles and commentary, none of the moves would have names (given that moves get relevant names for their characters.. so no characters means no move names) and then it'd just be a bunch of blokes getting oily and dropping each other a lot.
wreslting IS fake in the same way as movie stunts are. these guys have to do shows 4 nights a week so if it was real then they'd all be permenantly injured. but to say they're not athletes it ridiculous becasue they are... but they're also actors.

You're about 10-20 years too late then, it was proved and exposed ages ago. However while the results are pre-determined the bumps that the wrestlers take certainly aren't fake. Like JR once said:
*Where in the hell do you learn how to fall off a 20 foot ladder?*

But you are generalising. You are stating that ALL of wrestling is fake but apart from the storylines, nothing is fake.
Also, wrestling is part of the Olympics and they only accept 'sports' in the Olympics and their results are not predetermined. If the storylines and angles were there, WWE could be termed a sport.

Of course we have, and if you look through the thread, so has everyone that is posted. We know it's fake, but it's entertainment, and that is why we watch it.

i don't have an objection with people who watch or enjoy wrestling i am just proving a point that it is fake which is what this topic is about. Just like i don't dislike people who watch soap and other story based entertainment
i am not saying that they don't train hard or they would be in the physical state they are. sportsmen train to be others and to be the best in there field. wrestlers train in there showman skills so that the audience will love them so that they can be succesful
