That is so weird that you went to a show in Syracuse as a kid, so did I! What year did you go? I think I went in 91 or 92. It was just a house show, main event was Brett hart vs Owen hart.

I always knew it was fake. My best friend and I went to the old Boston Garden and saw Andre the Giant and shit. We were laughing at all the grown men who appeared to think it was real. They would shout shit like, "Come ref, what the fuck are you doing!" Funny, funny stuff.

I also remember getting on HBO Wrestle Mania 2 or something and watching it with friends.

If I was still a kid I would think so too. Only cause of the hot girl factor and there was no internet. We never had that element during the WWF, at least in the 80's when I was a kid.

i sure as hell knew it wasnt fake when owen hart fell 80 feet from above the ring and died on the mat live on pay per view.

WWF has been responsible for a lot of tragic shit over the years. Hopefully one day they go out of business...and soon

**Jimmycube** · 10-29-2010, 08:57 AM

The combination of making wrestlers work "house shows" 300+ days a year, while maintaining completely unrealistic physical appearances *hence steroids being needed to look the part but more so to be able to recover from injuries as fast as possible in order to wrestle as much as they do* and partake in some incredibly dangerous stunts which results in numerous concussions all result in pro wrestling being one of the most dangerous "sports" in the world if not the most dangerous.

If u ever look at the amount of wrestlers who are either dead, in jail or permanently disabled its truly sad as all hell. Most of the wrestlers dont even get to keep the rights to their wrestling names so they dont get any royalties from all of their video games, toys and other merchandise.

Its a really really shady business from what i know about it.
