As others have said, it is entertainment, kind of like Gladiators in Roman times, scripted, yes, fake, yes, and as said, nascar with chairs. There are good guys, bad guys, story lines & plots, plus, they use plots that everyone can relate to, remember the Iron Sheik??

Now, even though we all know that it is fixed & fake, some of the stunts these guys do really can't be explained, cause it isn't movie magic in the ring and yes, sometimes someone goes off script. BITD, I worked with a raslin program and would be at the big matches when they came to down, back stage & going ring side with these guys. Unlike the movies where they take a 5' nothing "action hero" and make him appear huge on screen, these guys really are huge, I still remember the 1st time I met Dustin Rhodes, son of the "Bionic Elbow" Dusty Rhodes, the guy was big, 6'6", as were the other wrestlers.
Like I said, not everything goes to script, and you are dealing with guys with Roid Rage, it can be messy, as I saw one time back stage when a big fight after the match broke out. How do I know it wasn't part of the act, easy, no cameras or fans there. They can be fun to take to your local bar too, some are real cool to hang out with..
