Professional Wrestling is stupid but the wrestlers are Oscar level performers. When the stunt category at the Academy Awards matures, watch pro wrestlers repeatedly win.

The technicality, the over-dramatization, and the hilarity are off the charts.
I used to love it in the late 90s.

I remember they use to wack eachother with chairs and other objects lmao, no wonder lots of them suffered permanent injuries. Kinda wish i could re watch the earlier WWf / WWE series

I think you can. I’ve seen compilations on dvds. Check your library, especially if they have an inter library loan system. You might be able to find torrents too.

I checked Rutracker, and it definitely has videos from the 90s and early 2000s. Being wilfully and blissfully ignorant of that artform, I can’t tell if the releases are any good or if there’s any system to them.

I sure hope that their chairs are of about the same sturdiness as Hong Kong action-film chairs, which crumble into woodchips from any moderate contact.

I remember they used metal folding chairs and they did not break easily. Obviously they didn’t hit each-other with full force but head injuries were still common

Better than football (or soccer) where everything is fake but you need to fake the fact that you know it
