I don't get the text. The part about wrestling that's fake is the storylines, not the stuntwork :confused:

e: or is it :thejoke:

Wrestling has a very long history of denying that it was fake and insisting that it was legitimate competitions. It's a fairly recent phenomenon that kayfabe has been admitted to and built into the branding of the show. Now you have meta kayfabe and jokes on the fact that it was claimed to be real just to add to the content.

People who believe wrestling was real are the same people who believed the Earth is flat and I don't believe either party exist.

there's a famous story from the early 80s where a Charlotte area newspaper ran a poll asking if wrestling was real or fake and Ole Anderson predicted 3% of the responders would say it's fake

the actual result was 90%

Ok, so the percentage of 'you can fool some of the people all of the time' is 10%.

Seems low.

Well ritual murder can in theory be a kink too...

Really though, there were ritual sacrifices in Scandinavian bogs for 4-5 millennia or so up until conversion to Christianity, both material things and humans. It seems to have been introduced by the first farmers and kept going through subsequent immigration waves through the millennia, even though the dominant cultures obviously shifted.

It could very well also be variants of: "So this is where you toss your sacrifices to the gods? And you say the corpses don't foul the wells of the nearby villages? Man this is perfect! HarkilaR, give the prisoner a whack with the club and toss him in."
