Re: Wrestling it's returning
No, Doc, I won't be watching.
f
a) I don't have a TV - so it could be difficult, and
b) My Dad always maintained that it was 'fixed' beforehand.
Didn't stop him watching Mick McManus, Jackie Pallo and Billy Two Rivers though !
Edit - just found this from Jackie Pallo's autobiography !
Autobiography
Even before the publication of his 1985 autobiography "You Grunt, I'll Groan" (ISBN 0-7088-3228-8), where he revealed the secrets of the wrestling entertainment business (including referees carrying razor blades to nick fighters' earlobes in order to produce the necessary blood to satisfy the bloodlust of the frenzied crowd of mostly elderly women – Pallo preferred to bite his lip to produce the same effect) crowds argued about whether wrestling bouts were staged or not. "Of course it was, it was pure showbiz right from the start", Pallo wrote in his autobiography.
