Staged Physics

Live events of professional wrestling fascinates me every time, and in a big way.

Yes, most of the spectators of today are aware that it is staged, that it is predetermined, that it is scripted. But when the show starts, everyone hangs their disbelief somewhere secluded like how they have surrendered their professional cameras for a few hours, and place themselves on the actual staged physics taking in place in the squared circle.

In every battle, kids and adults screaming their lungs out in support of their hero, the villain of the feud, or even the anti-hero. And in every battle, some get destroyed easily like crushing an ant with a simple footstep or get even with the opposing fighter and give the audience a showcase of the best.

Though I have my list of favorites, it does not really matter who became victorious on every match. What matters is the drama or the sportsmanship shown on every bout. Or both.
