What does that mean? They both purchased shares in vitamin water before a buyout? I'm not sure why I'm asking actually as I couldn't give a ****. -

Okay, can someone explain this charade to me?
During a break in the cricket last night, I was browsing and saw some WWE on SS3.
'The Big Show' was 'fighting' some moustachioed weakling. He pushed him over a few times, then hit him in the ribs a couple of times. The weakling was getting up to all kinds of histrionics on the canvas - quite the thespian!
Then 'Big Show' took the mic and addressed the crowd with some taunting of Floyd Mayweather.
The commentators, seemingly believing all this **** was real
started warning Mayweather that this big lummox could 'end his career'.
What career? His acting career? They can't be talking about his boxing? Because that is real and this isn't?
Why do people take it seriously? It's all scripted...isn't it? It's all pretend? I can't understand why anyone over the age of 7 would watch it. Surely you'd stop watching it at about the age you discover Father Christmas isn't real?Thanks very much for being ‘This Mornings’ Farmer’Comment

Just so long as you don't start badmouthing The Undertaker then everything will be just fine.Comment

Wrestling fans know the results are pre-determined, but then again, so are most TV shows. It doesn't stop people watching and being interested in what's going to happen in the 'plot'. Think of it as a soap opera of guys beating the hell out of each other. Some of the things they go through are real and very painful.Originally posted by ShaggyAlonso View Post
It used to be fun to watch around 1998-2000 when the WWF had some awesome characters like Stone Cold and The Rock
but now it's really stale and boring. I'd be quite embarrassed to be a wrestling fan today, but 10 years ago it was almost 'cool'

"A soap opera for men"
An oxymoron if ever I've heard one.

I bet you still watch Corrie though.
I always think that the wrestling is like Eastenders with a bit of added violence.
Everybody loves a bit of misery, a few scuffles here and there and lots of fat man and brassy birds.A humble guy with healthy desire.Comment

Big Show v Mayweather
WEIGH IN
Shane McMahon is out first. He's here to introduce the whole thing. Mayweather's name gets booed. Shane points out Big Show is the only guy to hold all the major world (well, American) heavyweight titles (apart from AWA but that's not been a major title for a long time). Shane calls Mayweather the "greatest fighter in the world today" and tells us he's 39-0. The boos are getting louder every week. As per usual he has an enormous entourage. He also has serious bling and is wearing sunglasses indoors. One of his medallions reads "philthy rich". Mayweather is up first and takes the bling off to get weighed. Crowd boo the **** out of him. His entourage applaud. Mayweather weighs in at 159lbs. Show is up. He weighs 441lbs. Show grabs the mic to point out Floyd brought a posse so he's about to bring out his posse. Out comes the WWE locker room to surround the ring. Floyd whinges about it. Show says no one in the locker room likes Mayweather and they came out here to see the $20M man. Show suggests Mayweather throw some money into the crowd so they don't hate him so much. Or perhaps give some to his posse so they can pretend to be his friends for longer. Show talks about Mania and says he may take pity on Floyd and just embarrass him. Or if he continues to disrespect him Show will guarantee he'll never box again. Show asks him what's it going to be…little runt? "You suck" chant the crowd at Floyd. Floyd pulls out a handful of money, which he smells, and starts throwing at Show. Crowd starts with the WHAT after each sentence. He says he respects Show's achievements but not him as a human being. He says Show might be able to hurt him but he's got to catch him first. Show pays off some of the wrestlers with the money on the canvas. Floyd says this is the biggest Wrestlemania ever. Floyd promises to break Show's jaw at Wrestlemania. Show takes offence and PRESSES MAYWEATHER ONTO SOME WRESTLERS AT RINGSIDE! Huge scuffle between the wrestlers and the posse breaks out. Mayweather is holding his elbow. Oh, that doesn't look good. I hope he's selling.

The fight between the entourage and the wrestlers was a real one according to sources backstage at RAW with Shane McMahon also being knocked
However, there is no ill feeling between the two camps as it was in the spirit of the moment.Comment
