	Professional wrestling attacks - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Attacking maneuvers in professional wrestling are mainly used to wear down an opponent for a submission hold, or set up for a throw.
		When speed is built the attacking wrestler uses the speed to leap forward and wrap his/or her arm around the opponent's neck, causing the power of the force to knock down the opponent, thus causing the attacking wrestler to flip forward downward.
		This attack involves a wrestler smothering their buttocks onto the face of an opponent lying in the corner of the ring, mainly to humiliate the opponent rather than to injure them.

	Wrestling Spirit for PC Review - PC Wrestling Spirit Review
		The absence of serious depth in Wrestling Spirit is offset by the entertainment value of role-playing as a muscle-bound freak who bashes people over the head with chairs for a living.
		Calling Wrestling Spirit the best professional-wrestling management simulation available for the PC may seem like damning the game with faint praise, but this is one excellent sports sim regardless of the diminutive size of the genre.
		This is wrestling, though, so the idea is both to win matches and entertain the crowd by whipping out moves that satisfy the audience and demolish the opposition.

		The vast majority of bleeding incidents in wrestling are real, and are typically induced by using hidden razor blades to cut oneself on the forehead; the act of cutting is known in the business and among fans as blading, and bleeding is known as juicing.
		When professional wrestling moved to increasingly fixed matches around the early 1900s, there was still a strong push for most of the century to promote professional wrestling as being a legitimate sport; this movement is where the concept of kayfabe originated from.

	Submission Wrestling
		Submission wrestling or submission grappling, judo, and some styles of jujitsu, most notably Brazilian, are sports/martial arts which are basically wrestling, with the addition of submission holds (chokes, armbars or arm locks, leg locks, etc.).
		Further, the fundamental techniques of submission wrestling are very similar or identical in some cases, to some of the techniques used for self defense, and some techniques used in NHB type events.
		In conclusion, submission wrestling is a great way to stay in shape, and it is a lot of fun when practiced in an environment that emphasizes safety and personal growth.

		Wrestling is about as tongue in cheek as "Buffy The Vampire Slayer." It’s too lowbrow to achieve joke-within-a-joke status.

	[slash] Wrestling [slash] Guests [slash] Outsider
		According to the great Vince McMahon, professional wrestling is now "sports entertainment", a metamorphosis that has transformed this once-ugly backroom exhibition into a pretty new butterfly, fraught with all sorts of crossover possibilities.
		Even loyal hard-core wrestling fans, for all their hand-wringing and crocodile tears, even we keep our mouths shut when it comes to calling for any kind of fundamental change in the way business is done in this seamy enterprise called Professional Wrestling.
		The Outsider is going to be clear about this: like any other group of skilled professionals, wrestlers need a union, and they need it especially NOW, a time when there is, for all intents and purposes, only one place for a wrestler to go for employment.

		He grew up watching professional wrestling on Paul Boesch's Houston Wrestling television program as well as going to the Sportatorium in Dallas to watch the Von Erich family perform in World Class Championship Wrestling.
		Injured, and furious with what he felt was disrespect in the way he was treated, Austin decided to enter ECW where he began changing his in-ring persona, adding a nasty edge and making direct, angry verbal attacks at the people in charge at WCW.
		He has set a new standard for wrestling intensity and microphone work and has solidified his place as one of the wrestling greats for the 1990s.

		Sorry to rant on and on about these guys, but give them an hour of the show to actually wrestle and do the stuff that they are capable of, and that's a solid base to build the rest of the show on.
		Maybe the wrestling crowd the WWE are aiming for will never buy people under 5 foot 8 as World Champions - but show them some quality action, and they'll accept them as entertaining.
		Booker's heel turn was done, I thought, to give Eddie a top liner to feud with, not to give the Taker a bigger star to squash on his return from the dead.

		The viewers of Professional Wrestling were hooked, many fans became loyal fans and tuned in every week to watch their favorite wrestlers on their favorite wrestling company.
		There were many attacks on WWE by WCW, like the famous NWO Eric Bischoff promo where Eric challenges Vince McMahon to a fight, and the constant reveling of match results on WCW so the viewers wouldn't have to watch WWE.
		But today wrestling seems to be in a valley for wrestling fans.

		His death severs one of professional wrestling's final links between its carnival roots and the glitzy world of pay-per-view.
		Despite family pressure to join a cousin in the meat-cutting business, Blassie made his wrestling debut at age 17 at a community center, believing that the matches were pure athletic contests, and losing against more talented grapplers, until older performers informed him about the show business aspect of the profession.
