To be serious for a moment when people say "it's fake", they mean it's not a legitimate sporting contest. That's true...and completely misses the point. That's not what it's meant to be. It's scripted entertainment. A high school teacher who was a big pro wrestling fan said it was a "soap opera for men."
Porn isn't a legitimate sporting contest either, but it is fake in that it's staged and scripted (minus amateur stuff). It's the same scripted entertainment.
It's a soap opera stunt show where the story revolves around a wrestling league.
You're ignoring that for the majority of its history both the pro-wrestling industry and fans have supported the kayfabe, so people saying "It's fake" would be met with "No it's not! Was that guy getting hit with a chair fake?!?!!"
Does that happen in porn? In soap operas?
And, of course, a lot of the fans of pro-wrestling were children. The "It's fake! No it isn't!" arguments mostly happened between eight year olds in various stages of figuring out the world lies to them.
Even beyond that, this is just a ridiculous boomer argument on the whole. The kayfabe has been largely abandoned for a decade, because it was becoming a legal liability to pretend to be a legitimate athletic contest no matter how hard they winked.
Porn isn’t a legitimate sporting contest either
Not with that attitude!
Oddly enough, the fakeness is why I dislike both wrestling and produced porn. I'll take footage of a suburban soccer mom getting spit roast by two bulls at a swingers party over any staged porn...or wrestling.
This is art.
And like most great art, we don't know the context for this.
I like the fact that the produced stuff tends to have things like better angles. There's been a lot of videos that looked good, but the camera seems to have been placed in the top corner of a room where the people are on the opposite side and you can't really see anything.
But otherwise, I agree. Amateur stuff as a whole tends to be more appealing. No stupid story line intros or anything. Not to mention the story type stuff they do add has gotten beyond ridiculous in some of it. Or at least I know it is in gay porn.
“I love pro wrestling because it’s like porn.” I bet you do, sir. I bet you do.
It is fake until it's not. Lot of interesting scene from wrestling happen accidentally but they kept on going, the injuries are real, the pain are real, and the fact that in 1998 when the Undertaker threw Mankind off "Hell in a Cell" and plummeted sixteen feet through an announcer's table, is real too.
The only thing I miss about reddit is shittymorph

You're supposed to pee after!
You can do both!
I just don't enjoy sex as much with a full bladder
The other 10% would incorporate the pee into it.
I feel the exact same way about videos on the internet. But I seem to be the minority in that.
I swear to god if it turns out "Sumo wrestling but instead of fat asian men its muscular black men" is fake...
How do they fake the cumshots in porn? I'm just curious. Are they using Jergen's hand lotion in hidden squirt guns or something? Because that would be great for your complexion. And by the way, I'm not sure pro wrestling isn't a kind of porn - all those hot men in their tiny tights grinding against each other.
I've heard of some people who carefully inject milk or fake cum down their urethra and sort of push it out that way. Also heard of people doign that to make it look like their loads are way bigger.
People are strange.
I guess nothing would surprise me, but that seems like a lot of extra work when you can just get the real stuff very easily to "cum" out. I'm not against fakeness if it's genuinely arousing.
