I watched it a long time ago on and off. And there's a difference between an orchestrated fall and a fake fall, dork. Do stuntmen fake their falls too? lol Hey, omg, movies are fake too! Oh no! My world is falling apart around me!

Idiot.

Wow you're just here to talk bad about people huh. Item #1 wrestling is a lot of fun. It's a full contact soap opera and noisy, just because you don't dig it doesn't invalidate it. #2 Gawain didn't say the weren't orchestrated, the post he was responding to said they were faked, the falls (and hits and jumps and chairs and cages) are real in a script or not the person really is falling and really can (and sometimes does) get seriously injured. And as for the script it's a lot more wide open than a lot of people think, and at the lower star levels it frequently consists of a time alotment and a winner.

Getting a little 'snippy' and condescending, aren't we? I checked out Gawain's profile and noticed he lives in flyover country, and is in his mid-20s, which is the big demographic for wrestling fans. At least he took the time to fill out his profile. Give the young man a break, he probably has more of an interesting life than you give him credit for.

My life is probably considered boring to the average Californian (speaking from experience as a former resident of CA): I work two jobs to support my wife and three kids (15, 13, & 3 months), and my favorite non-work activity is enjoying my house and my family. My favorite day is Sunday, because we get to do things together as a family (church, a meal, and some fun). Within my circle of friends, that's a pretty common scenario.

Since I think you live out in CA, I congratulate you on having a great team, with a great coach, and a great organization. I just hope that Lakers' fans show more class than in the past, when they destroyed the area around the Staples Center after winning a couple of years ago.

As I said in a previous post, Lakers' fans need to enjoy this, because it will end sooner than you think. Don't forget that it was Jerry West who brought Shaq and Kobe to the Lakers, and he's in Memphis now.
