If movies are scripted, TV shows are scripted and broadway shows are scripted... why doesn't anyone call those fake?

[colemurphy]

“Running around pretending to kick each other’s asses when they aren’t”

Just described an action movie..

[Youretryingtoohard]

The minute he said “Triple R” i knew this guy watched wrestling but is pretending to hate it to be cool.

[Imagoddamnmenace]

Bro said wrestling is fake and they aren’t like action movies yet described an action movie perfectly lmao

[mistakenidentity]

"These guys are running around a stage acting"
YES, just like THEATER PEOPLE. His argument is so dumb.

"It's hard to win an argument with a smart person, but it's damn near impossible to win an argument with a stupid person.” – Bill Murray

[dummythicc]

"You already know who's going to win."

Literally every superhero movie.

Two points:

1) Pretending not to know the wrestlers names but getting it half right. Classic used to watch wrestling but I am now insecure and embarrassed by it personality.

2) His arguments for why Wrestling is not like a movie or TV show were really really bad.

If you can understand how Broadway or live performance art works, apply that to wrestling. Stop looking at it as a fake fight and look at it as live story telling.

[HomerTheBraves]

I’ll never understand people like this. Thanks for defending the fandom.

[killingfields]

"Running around on stage pretending to kick each others ass, when they're not." That's what a movie is.

[limsrusill]

"I'm insecure within myself so I project that onto others to help deal with it."

[megafarad]

You also go into an action movie knowing who is going to win as well.

[narwhal]

This guy really just straight up said “They’re acting real, ” as if that meant anything at all.

[marcfenelus]

I think we surpassed the “wrestling is fake” thing like 20 years ago

[ChagrinElectric]

Dude doesn't comprehend that the the majority of entertainment is pre planned. Noone writes a book off top of their head, composes music on the fly, etc. Not all cases, but most.

[BappinWithNine]

I hate when people say wrestling fake let him say that to a wrestler face

[shahenazmalek]

it's a live movie with no retakes, no stuntmen, and no editting.

[patrickwhite]

“They’re pretending to kick each other’s assess” you mean like Harry Potter pretended to fly on a broom. We all know that’s not real bud..

[litplay]

And John wick is actually beating people up 😂
