The greatest source of amusement for a modern wrestling fan are the people who go, "You know that's fake right?" and feel really proud of themselves for having come to such a world shaking conclusion.

[@brianbenoit6883]

You'd be amazed how many people still don't get it. Had a fellow fan at work that really thought most of it was real and I have met several people that can't be convinced.

[@Sashko_Dee]

I think the subtext of that question is usually "You know it's fake; so what do you get out of it?". I think they figure that you can get better ass beatings in "legit" sports that aren't predetermined and better soap opera action on day time TV and can't understand that different people have different tastes and might still wanna combine the two. This is where the "Days of Our Lives" people screwed up. If they taught their soap actors to whale on each other they'd have made crazy bank. Do it like a live play in front of an audience and when the Doctors dead brothers formerly dead evil twin shows up they can wrassle with each other. And that is how you sell Wrestlemania tickets to people's grannies.

[@GLsJAwtomatica]

Next time you see them watching tv or a movie or reading book, tell them the same

[@coolraul07]

Soap operas are "fake". Primetime medical dramas are "fake". Hollywood movies are "fake". Nevertheless, they are entertaining and require talent to pull off and keep people spending their hard-earned dollars on them.

When i worked the indies as security we had to ad lib so many things; we started using saws to cut half way through tables so the talents wouldn't hurt themselves, buying blood packet from Party City for color and used a set of toy handcuffs against the faces when they would put the boots to them.. I really miss those days.

[@tafua_a]

I remember being a manager for an indie show where they actually had the referee pass the gig to one of the guys. I guess he didn't trust himself not to lose the blade, and the ref was the only veteran in the match. Long story short, I saw him try to get color twice, and he looked like he had a zit by the time the match was over.

[@scottyprice339]

So as a kid in the 80s I actually witnessed a ring put together @ my local fair in Eastern North Carolina that had the shock in the middle and plywood. The Iron Sheek was there and as a kid waited around after the show and watched them dismantle it.

[@kimi4440]

Yeah basically what happened from what I understand is that Vince said these traditional wrestling rings looked bad on TV, they looked bouncy which according to Vince would make it look fake. So as a consequence WWE/WWF either eliminated the spring altogether from the ring or tightened it so much as to render its function moot.

[@katin6238]

I went to WWE in Cardiff last weekend and was hanging out by the barrier while Cody went around signing/doing selfies after the show. In the end, i was more interested in watching Charles Robinson breaking down the ring (by himself, I might add) than, watching Cody. It was SO cool seeing each layer come up. Got to admit, I winced when I saw how little padding was there between the mat and the plywood. Even if there's foam on top of it, it is NOT much. Must not be pleasant to land flat on your back on those things.

Lots of people still have working VCRs. Whether it be for nostalgia, or they like collecting VHS tapes instead of DVDs and Blu-rays.

[@evanhunke1676]

depends what you like to watch, I am a nerd and there is a lot of older horror and scifi that never made it to a DVD re release, other movies like starwars only the special edition made it to dvd. Not sure what Maven watches but a lot of those old wrestling specials like that tape never made it to dvd or streaming

[@bepbep7418]

Believe it or not you can still but them 😂

[@alvintehmono]

Yes, wrestling is indeed "fake" or "orchestrated," but it's precisely this orchestration that makes it so entertaining. The artistry lies in the complexity of executing moves like the piledriver correctly and the horrible risk if they're not done perfectly. This blend of athletic performance, storytelling, and showmanship transforms wrestling into a striking scene. Despite the scripted outcomes, the physical demands and real risks involved require a lot of skill and precision. The "fake" aspect enhances the entertainment value, allowing for a controlled yet thrilling display that keeps fans on the edge of their seats. The fact that it is orchestrated is what makes wrestling worth watching. Thank you for the content, keep doing it Maven!

[@ballbby3775]

Yeah no its fans are a bunch of weirdOs while grown men in tights pretend to fight. Dont try to make it sound like its anything more, its fake nonsense.

[@amyhoard1222]

It's lik all the action movies a person watches. You know that the people were using crash pad or some other safety measure so they wouldn't kill themselves or have a stunt person take damage, but you still watch the movie for it's entertainment, not for it's legitimacy. I think most non-fans just don't get the fact it's fun to watch reguardless of how fake the storylines or gimmicks are.

[@Lightman0359]

can confirm with an anecdote of 1 minor promotion, the 2 times I did a show with Lucha vavoom [luchadors and burlesque], their ring was as Maven described: 4 steel I-beams, around 12-18" tall, connected to the 4 ring posts, with smaller 4-6" steel or aluminum box joists every 1-2' to support the 2x6 planks that make up the floor. a layer of gym pads are then covered by a base canvas, then the top cover with branding and ads. The turnbuckle pads are more like boxing gloves with dense foam [same foam as the ring pad, closer to a pool float than a foam pillow]

[@Lightman0359]

also i got to soundcheck the ring mics. I ran the ropes and tombstoned a sandbag center of the ring, scared the crap out of my sound guy [I was lighting].

[@Lightman0359]

on the plants assaulted by the talent, Ring Ka King [the Indian TNA affiliate] had crowd plants for Scott Steiner to harass, chase and terrorize for his roid rage gimmick.

[@DSPsWifesBF]

@@Lightman0359Steiner doesn’t seem to know when to turn off that roid rage gimmick though lol

[@Lightman0359]

@DSPsWifesBf in ring ka king, he turned it to 11 on some episodes. Literally tearing apart the cheap bike rack crowd barrier and climbing the balcony to harass the crowd. The other part of his gimmick (or it could just be Steiner being Steiner) was racism. He repeatedly derided the local talent for being Indian to the other TNA guys who were there on a Russo invasion angle. It was Steiner, Matt Morgan, David Young, and the one he would bitch to most ironically Sanjay Dutt. The Young Bucks were there, but I think they pissed off Russo because he made them into local masked wrestlers the Mumbai Cats. MarkyD123 did a recap series on it.

[@gone.golfing]

It was a special that would air on Fox I believe. It would air other specials like Magic Secrets Revealed. Oh the 90s!

[@Garth_Brown]

i watched it here on youtube at some point. It's still available.

[@d-mac8705]

I remember watching being televised in the 90s in the uk

[@brandonfields613]

So nice, I watched it twice

[@robertwalker7979]

I was so young but I definitely remember when this came out & I definitely remember a 9 or 10 year old me watching it..

[@brianstiles1701]

Never seen a stunt granny? *The ghost of Mae Young has entered the chat and taken a 3D*

[@Jacktrack7]

She wasn't just a "stunt granny" tho, she was a full fledged former professional wrestler.

[@edmulligan6472]

U had me with the puma track suit w the matching hat. But when u used a VHS tape....I was absolutely hooked

[@Blandco]

You just fell for one of the five tricks that KZbinrs use, the re-upload. You might have thought you already watched this video but in reality this is a different, edited, video with sound issues fixed. Stay tuned to the end of the video to see all the KZbin tricks that Maven uses to provide high quality videos for his audience.

[@mheiseus]

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 it's a work brother

[@Fusion_House]

We love you MAV! Just found your channel a few months ago, you seem like the big bro I never had. Keep it safe my friend, Thank you for your content!

[@LadyDragonsblood]

This is why as a fan of 57 years (I am 62 and started at grandmas knee at 5) it just makes me madder than a wet hen when people call wrestling "fake!" They have NO IDEA at the amount of skill, training, athleticism, acting (mostly live television), and stuntmen wrestlers are. Yes, the outcomes are scripted, Yes, punches are pulled... but the skill it takes to do it, and look like they are killing each other is phenomenal..... anyone who calls it "fake" has NO RESPCT for the business!!!!

[@twizzy585ots]

I mean it's fake...but it's well executed by incredible athletes, and some are multi talented by being not only athletes but some what actors....nothing to be upset about wrestling fans know the dedication it takes to pull it off

[@GaryReid-kq4nj]

grow so balls. Wake up

[@LadyDragonsblood]

@@twizzy585ots It isn't fake! It is scripted. Do you call an actor fake? No, his an actor who plays a role. A Wrestler is an athlete who plays a role. Neither is fake.

[@twizzy585ots]

@LadyDragonsblood scripted equals fake....are movies real ? Get over it and stop being sensitive

[@LadyDragonsblood]

@@twizzy585ots As usual my point is missed. Do you call an actor fake? No, you call him an actor. You casual fans, that actually know nothing about wrestling except WWE, are just hopeless.

[@coyboybc]

Got to remember that video from 1991 …. 30 years ago Things change and so do some of the moves from then to know ! But it’s a good thing to watch ! In the city of Tupelo Mississippi the arena will not allow signs to be brought in and that’s sucks taking our signs for at the door … not being able to support our favorite wrestlers

[@alainchristian]

NARRATED BY SALEM!!! 🐈‍⬛

[@taylorpike1191]

It also sounds kind of like Tony Schiavone.

[@jonathanfenton5496]

I've seen this several times over the years. Very interesting documentary and for its time(before the internet), i'd even say "groundbreaking. Obviously one thing that may cause it to be "inaccurate," or better yet "dated" is that this information came from both 1. Non-WWE talent (Harley Race was the "booker" here. Even his buddies said he wasn't a particularly good one. Not sure if there were any WCW guys here.) 2. Talent trained at a different point. Obviously things change as time goes by. Training and wrestling techniques evolve as different talent comes in and offers something new. Like you said at the end, this doc was really just giving fans a taste of the behind the scenes.

[@TheRealNGTN]

Reupload? Or have I gone mad?

[@Gamekilleryt69]

Think reupload lol

[@aybanpali]

The other one had messed up audio

[@NewtonRPG]

Yeah, the audio for when the tape played didn't play correctly for some people

[@TheRealNGTN]

​@@Gamekilleryt69 Thanks

[@Kay_Sea251]

Sadge... i was listening to jt and the audio was fine for me...

[@Sunshine-hf9kx]

Maven knows all the secrets of Pro Wrestling, even the cheat codes)

[@benwhite8075]

"I can't believe he pie-faced the granny!" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@ilovekatescott8057]

That was hilarious 😂😂😂

[@Leithrows]

13:04 biggest example I can think of here is Nic Nemmeth, AKA Dolph Ziggler. In recent years, Nemmeth has become truly beloved for just how stellar he was at making other wrestlers look good and how much effort he truly put into his matches. It really is a shame he didn’t get a bigger push from WWE, but he is the biggest example of selling = stardom I’ve ever seen

[@jayboitnott-si8sc]

Got to see it twice

[@RamonGarcia-tc8iv]

Hes definitly correct about the ring. I use to work fir the Michigan Concert Service and took apart the three rings at WCW World War 3 in Detroit Michigan in November 1998. You van even see me on the pay per view when DDP jumps up on announcment table with U.S. belt on. Its was awesome!

[@-.Springtrap.-]

I swear I was just watching this. Did KZbin remove this?

[@XannyTanner77]

he reuploaded it, last one had some audio issues for some people

[@Jayjay0829]

The audio was a bit messed up so he fixed it

[@drakkonusfrostburn4038]

"I love your channel!" That is what I shouted after your intro. I know you must have a team working on your videos. You guys are doing great. Keep up the good work.

[@acerimmer8338]

I miss kayfabe. Wrestling was a lot more fun and interesting not knowing all the secrets and wondering if the heels were REAL bad guys or if the action was legit.

[@underthependulum3484]

I get that but I'm of the opposite camp, I enjoy learning the secrets and the tricks cause I appreciate the artistry more

[@hubjohnner]

There are adults that thought this was real? :-0
