But that's arresting someone, not confiscating a weapon.

Do you amputate their hands and keep them frozen for the flight?

Re-attach them when they land?

No no.

Arrest him.

In fact, just consider the entire boxer a weapon and confiscate him.

"We're confiscating you Sir."

"What? Don't you mean arrest-"

"No, We're confiscating you. We're going to lock you up with all the other potential murder weapons."

Jam, in a basic professional wrestling match, the chance the death in the ring is very very low. I can think of three times a wrestler has died in the ring and that had to due with freak accidents and internal injuries not caused by the other wrestler.

Also, how can you compare a little kid who doesn't know wrestling is fake versus a trained professional that knows where to hit people so it doesn't cause (as much) pain?

I've never seen a pro-wrestling match in which the winner doesn't make fun of the loser in a show of exceptionally poor sportsmanship. That part is most likely an act but it doesn't make the fact that they did it any different.

That's right. The heels and faces don't actually hate each other offstage.

Professional wrestling is 60% showmanship and 40% sportsmanship

Heels are bad and do bad things.

Faces are good and do good things.

[up]Very true. Half the time, they commonly travel with each other. Hell, most of the time, they're friends.

I mean, it's okay to find the principle distasteful, but don't go insinuating that it's actual real meanness. It's a bunch of silly, garish bluster, interspersed with actual stunts.
