		<description>Have you never heard of taking pride in something, working your a$$ off! paying your dues for something you love thats the reason why people go out and sacrifice their mind and body for £30 a night.

And if you actually knew anything about the history of british wrestling you'd realise that British wrestling has already had boom periods, none more so than the world of sport days when competitors such as Giant Haystakes, Big Daddy (Who even had his own cartoon on British television but wrestling was never popular?) Davey Boy Smith aka The British Bulldog and The Dynamite Kid (who both moved on to become house hold names in the United States) graced out screens on a Saturday afternoon.

And as far as pro wrestling being "fake" i'd like to see you tell every single pro wrestler who has bust their a$$ and bleed to entertain that their sacrifices mean nothing!
Because sure as hell mean alot to them and the fans.

(It amazes me why you'd come onto a wrestling site to argue about a subject that you apparently don't have any knowledge of.)</description>

		<description>Dictionary definition of the word "Fake".

1. One that is not what it purports to be.

2. An imitation passed off as genuine.

3. To alter, manipulate, or treat a situation, so as to give a spuriously genuine appearance.

4. To claim, represent, or assert falsely.

Ergo, 

"Wrestling" IS "Fake" and will only ever be successful in a country where 18% of its population believe 'Rambo' is a real soldier and won WW2 (and where everyone hi-fives each other at every opportunity)

Wrestling is no more than a very minor, 'performing art' and will never, ever be taken seriously in the UK (well..not by anyone with half ounce of intelligence). 

FFS even 'Darts' and 'Snooker'...and even 'Poker' receive a shitload of more airtime on TV.

Wrestling cannot be competitive when everyone involved is plainly pretending to compete.

And as for people not knowing 'how hard it is' and 'how many knocks' you get, legs broken, concussions etc etc...Well how about they aint that stupid to go thru all that for £30 a night. 

Lets just say, after reading these 'trying to justify' comments, that these people who call 'fake' think you're the stupid bastards participating in something that 

1. Proves nothing.
2. Gets you 'hurt'.
3. Will never be popular. 

And then add the fact that you are doing all this..for less than someone can earn working in McDonalds the same amount of time.

End of.

		<description>I just wanted to say respect to all you guys, im not a wrestler myself but i am about to start training with Basix Wrestling.

Also thought it might be worth mentioning Shawn Michaels and his broken back, anyone willing to tell that guy he faked his 4 year absence from the WWE?!

Once again, MASSIVE RESPECT to ALL wrestlers out there, hopefully i'll get to work with you soon =)</description>
