    Most Americans think wrestling is real. Sad, but true.

      LOL...I dont know about that. Vince has repeatedly mentioned Wrestling as entertainment and that everything is scripted. But do the wrestlers get hurt? Absolutely. I've been in an actual Wrestling ring and that **** isn't "that" padded. So when you see those guys fallin on their backs from the top rope, they feel it.

      But anycase, I don't see how this Wrestlemania is gonna sell more than Pontiac Silverdome for Wrestlemania 3 (93,000 attendance) or Toronto Skydome for Wrestlemania VI (88,000). The Citrus Bowl doesn't seat half of that. The PPV will do good numbers, but Floyd won't make that much of a difference. They have celebs every year @ Wrestlemania.

              Well, obviously, the WWE don't know boxing. If they did, they would have used, Oscar against Big Show, Ricky Hatton against Big Show, or Gatti against Big Show. They were the draws, and what made the people buy the PPV's, not Floyd. Floyd is a nobody without his opponents marquee names. They really got the wrong man. A non risk taker, a lil whiny biatch, and all around type of guy that pisses you off the more you hear what comes outta his mouth. Wait! This guy sounds awesome, letme spend my hard earned money to watch him in some circus ****! **** that.

                Should of went with Tyson again, floyd isnt that well known, maybe in his own mind but even at this stage everyone still knows who tyson is.

                Its not surprising though, the wwf has been **** for years now.

                      The guy is a pisser but I hope it does well. PBF comes out like a real prick which he is intitled to because he has earned it. I wanted him to lose in dancing with the stars but when he did I felt bad. Wrestling is fake as **** because in real life the big show would squash PBF, I dont watch wrestling anymore, I grew out of it when it became a monopoly.
