professional wrestling is one of the most physically and mentally taxing athletic events in the world

the death toll of professional wrestlers is by leaps and bounds larger than any other sport there is

it's not like these people don't get legitimately hurt doing these fake stunts

wrestling requires an absurd amount of technical skill

because performing a large number of these "fake" moves incorrectly by even the smallest margin can and has lead to people being killed and permanently crippled

I do not believe that at all.

And if it were true these guys are performing shows over their colleagues corpses.

It's a hazardous performance art, like circus acrobatics or stunt biking.

I'm not a fan either, but Duffy is right. It's a complex and dangerous sport.

What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?

WE TALKING ABOUT WRESLTING?

but yeah Wrestling's dangerous as hell.

speaking as someone who's spent years of his life watching it (and has seen "careers ended in an instant"), it's not some "fake reality show".

well, the storylines are but the fighting is real

HEY DUFF if you need like anything about wrestling, just ask me

i know everything about it

So why would they go along with these bullshit stories if they know someone could be killed?

why do football players play football when they know they can be injuried severely?

it's all apart of the business

they also take every possible precaution to not injure their partner in the ring

If you injure many people, nobody wants to work with you
