Real!! you're having a laugh surely, if it was real dont you think the guys involved would have splattered noses, broken bones and blood all over the floor?

There have been plenty of real injuries suffered in the ring. There has even been a fatality in the ring, so apart from the outcomes being scripted in advance and they train to do the moves properly there is always a chance they pick up real injuries in the ring.

And just because you don't like it, don't start the old wrestling is fake rubbish. There are plenty of us who like watching it.

Assuming VM would ever except that, hence the situation we're in. That would still be Sky's "ace"...

Female wrestlers are awesome!! I'm not a wrestling fan, but watching them in HD is worthy of a few minutes of your time when channel hopping!

You must have Sky then.

bamav · 08-03-2013, 17:41

At my parent's house, yes. But I'm sure I've seen some replays or something on one of VM's HD channels - sure of it?

08-03-2013, 17:42

Ah that might be it, Raw repeats are sometime on SS2.

Great to look at but Diva wrestling is very dull, plenty of eye candy but no story. Not saying that's a bad thing though

Well... VM haven't accepted it so far.

..and yes, that was my point, either way Sky wins.

If you want real then it's UFC. Although sometimes I reckon the fights are swayed by the refs decisions to influence the fight.
