	Professional Wrestling - MSN Encarta
		Professional wrestlers are skilled athletes, but they perform as entertainers and not as competitors.
		The win-loss record of a professional wrestler, therefore, does not indicate how successful he or she is. Many professional wrestlers never win titles but nonetheless capture the imagination of fans and attract spectators and television viewers to the sport.
		Many professional wrestling matches are held in huge arenas that seat thousands of people, but others take place in small venues, such as high school gyms, bingo halls, and halls operated by the Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW).

		Early in the sport’s history wrestlers would hold a move such as a headlock for up to five minutes, but in the 1930s promoters began presenting matches in which the holds were abbreviated, allowing for more action.
		The wrestler who did the most to portray a colorful image was Gorgeous George, whose antics included performing in outrageous outfits and having his personal valet spray the ring with insecticide to rid it of germs.
		Few wrestlers gained widespread fame during this time, but one exception was Andre the Giant, a Frenchman who stood 7 ft 4 in (220 cm) and weighed more than 500 lb (200 kg).

		Modern professional wrestling is commonly associated within a company (often referred to as a fed), where the participants create an entertaining show simulating a dueling match.
		The question of whether professional wrestling is a sport comparable to its freestyle, Greco-Roman, and collegiate counterparts can seem irrelevant, maybe even impossible, to compare as the key difference between both concepts is that professional wrestling's main focus is maintaining its audience and profiting as a business rather than as a form of athletic competition.
		For example, a wrestler may get whipped into a referee at a slower speed, knocking the ref down for a minute or so; during that interim period, the wrestler may pin his opponent for a three-count and would have won the match but for the the referee being down.

		Professional wrestling is "simulated" in the sense that the outcomes are predetermined, the maneuvers rehearsed and executed cooperatively, and their effects upon the opponent exaggerated.

		Unable to channel their sexual urges in a mature, healthy way, Professional wrestlers and fans instead subvert their forbidden desires for man-flesh: the result is distorted into a grotesque, sadomasochistic ritual rife with homo-erotic undercurrents and subtext designed to show Dad that his little boy's no goddamn sissy anymore.
		Wrestlers have to be able to survive in a highly competitive environment, so early on they develop an arsenal of moves that include picking up their opponent and dropping them, and jumping on a prone opponent from a potentially rib-shattering altitude when you could just kick them to death.

		If you had told me 15 years ago that I'd be dating a professional wrestler and, now, engaged to marry a professional wrestler at the age of 30, I'd have laughed at you.
		Fake, no. Professional wrestlers get hurt, just like any other athlete, and if you're dating a professional wrestler, and you're going to go to your guy's shows to watch him perform, you will need to learn how to distinguish the difference between when he's selling for the crowd and when he's truly injured.
		I've been with my professional wrestler for 11 years, and sometimes I'm still fooled into believing he's really hurt when he's not, or thinking he's not when he very much is.
