Hi All, I have been fan of WWF since my school days. In Those i was not missing any matches of WWF. As i grow up i found many people saying that all the WWF matches you watch are fixed and it is an entertainment business not a sport. I felt disappointed by hearing this. Are these WWF matches really fixed?

For your information WWF is changed in to WWE(World Wrestling Entertainment), Yes, most of the matches are fixed in the WWE. WWE is just an entertainment. We could not do this without practice. "WWE superstars are professionally trained performers the moves we do in the ring takes years of practice to perfect and to do safely. So, please don't do this at home or at school." I guess you heared these lines while watching the wwe shows... Have a great day.. (Did you lost watching wwe?)

Thanks for your comment i actually know that WWF has changed to WWE. But these all matches are fixed i am truly shocked. I left watching it from the time i got to know that matches were fixed.

I thought WWF sounded weird though I did watch it when it was WWF, now though like you've said it's WWE. Now there's another one my FIL watches, it starts with a T, anyone know what that one is? lol.

Yes I believe so. When I was younger I watched them though I can't say as devoutely as you. I don't really remember how often I watched them just that I did frequently. In any case, now that I am a bit older and my fiance's father watches these matches, I realize that they are very much so rigged. You can tell by the way they say things, and the way they act that all they are are actors. Though it is fun to watch, to me, it is corny because of what they do and say. I'm sorry to have disappointed you. Now if I am in fact wrong I do not mind being proved so.

I guess you ask me about the Total Nonstop Action Wrestling(TNA)... I can see that lot of the wwe wrestlers shifted to the TNA.. It is also the professional wrestling show.. I don't know about it clearly but i guess it may be not real just like wwe.. But WWE is Total Nonstop Acting for sure...

Hi Friend, I am not sure but I too believe it that the Matches organized by WWF are Fixed and Preplanned... and Further even I saw a News report in our Local new regarding the same topic where they reported that even the Blood which comes out from the wrestler during fight are Fake too, this is a chemical which used by the fedration to show the Blood.... But still whatever its a kind of entertainment and people are enjoying it si Let the Federation do What they want to!!!!!!!!!! Keep Smiling and Happy myLotting...

The WWE matches are mostly aimed at providing entertainment to the people I think all the matches are fixed because if the moves they players are performing are real then they could not last for two matches.. Just watch them and njoy and never practice them at home

I also was a BIIGG fan as a kid. Sorry to say they are fixxed. But that is not to say that the wrestlers don't go into intensive training cuase they do. they have to be very athletic for the most part. they do tend to get hurt( for real hurt). A good movie for you to see would be " The Wrestler" I thought it was a pretty good movie. It's based on an old school wrestler and you can see the truth behind wrestling. Look it up, it's a pretty good movie.
