I mean i understand some matches may be fixed but when two popular players fight would any of them want to be the loser ? And the damage looks very real or is the only fixed thing the outcome ? Maybe someone from the industrty can answer . Or am i missing something if so put it into the comments and i’ll edit the post.
WWE and the like are a theatre performance designed to entertain. The fights are choreographed and intended to tell a story. The fighters are essentially actors/stuntmen whose job is to throw eachother around in ways that look exciting but are safe.
Boxing and sport wrestling are a genuine athletic sport where both fighters are trying to win.
I wouldn’t really call WWE “safe”, more like “mostly not life-threatening”. Lots of wrestlers have gotten properly fucked up over the years. Yes, the intent isn’t to cause harm but with all the flashy moves being pulled you are bound to break a few bones at some point
Fair point. In the same way being a stuntman isn’t always safe.
