Cool Hand Luke had this to say about Reading Rainbow:
Cryme Tyme + Slick + The American Dweeeeam + Sgt. Slaughter + Jimmy Hart + IRS + Ricky Steamboat = The best DAMN! ever
Who was that that walked by and did the Tatanka impersonation.
I agree, that was an excellent DAMN

Vallo enlisted the help of an infinite number of monkeys to write:
TNA > WWE
If by > you mean more laughable then, yes.
TNA is just ridiculous. WWE is just a cash cow.
Both of them suck now.

Verily, Vallo doth proclaim:
That's because they put their effort into getting talented athletes and wrestlers and making them compete in as many ways as possible.
why do you watch professional wrestling

Everyone wondered WTF when Mr. Gainsborough wrote:

Because it is real man. It really is! Seriously! It is! I mean, wow. Those guys doing all that super xxxxxxxtreme shit, that's because they're good athletes.
I'm amazed someone is trying to be elitist about watching wrestling then just talks about TNA. At least claim you're finding a way to watch ROH or some shit. Falaanla Marr fucked around with this message on 12-07-2007 at 03:35 AM.

Stage wrestling actually does require a good bit of athleticism.

Oh, I'm quite sure that it does. Not denying that. But it isn't like you need some high-class athlete to pull it off either.

I guess that depends on what you consider high-class athleticism.
Very dedicated body building is required, naturally, but there's a lot more than that, too. Heavyweights are expected to display nigh superhuman feats of strength on a regular basis. When the undertaker chokeslammed Yokozuna or, worse yet, andre the giant, he was actually lifting them. Not very high, and not for very long, but we're talking better than fucking five hundred pounds here, mostly with one hand, with the only assist being the chokee pulling their legs up a little so it looks like they're higher than they are.
And then there's the lighter weight classes. Guys like Rey Mysterio fly around the ring like an olympic acrobat cross bred with a ninja on speed. It's a miracle that they manage not to hurt anybody!
In terms of dedicated training and skill, these guys aren't quite on par with olympic athletes, no... but they aren't all that far behind them either. Maradon! fucked around with this message on 12-07-2007 at 04:27 AM.

Psst... the other guy jumps.
But yeah, your average wrestler is pretty much among the most well conditioned athletes in the world.
Yeah, there's always exceptions to the rule. Andre the Giant, Yokozuna, Viscera, Big Show, Great Khali, Undertaker(and even he is a great athlete. Nobody his size should be able to move like he moves) all got into wrestling basically because they were freakishly large human beings. But your average wrestler can do things only Stalwart Steve can do.
Like any other sporting even that doesn't have a ball.

Karnaj thought about the meaning of life:
I like watching wrestlers blow spots. That's why the Botchamania videos win my internet every day. Also, Bobby Heenan making fun of the Hart family is truly epic wrestling lulz.
Bobby Heenan is an American Hero.
Wrestlemania IX. Bret Hart vs Yokozuna.
Yokozuna has the upper hand and the fans are wildly chanting, "U.S.A.! U.S.A.!" in an effort to rally Bret Hart to victory.
"Bret Hart is from Canada and Yokozuna is from Japan. Why the hell are they chanting U.S.A.?" God Bless Bobby Heenan.
