Not very often. Pro wrestling has a bit of a stigma attached to it, but every now and then I find it entertaining enough. Which is the entire point, the point isn't if its real or not, it's supposed to be entertaining.

I used to watch a lot of it when I was younger (13-16ish), when i was in that phase where I was really interested violence in any form I could get it. Pro-wrestling fit that bill quite nicely I have to admit. It wasn't until later that I realized how over the top and ridiculous it can get, but even having said that I still watch it every now and again. Nostalgia can drive a man to many things.

I was also shocked to learn that, more often then not, the face wrestlers were real

behind the scenes back in the day, and the guys playing the heels were probably some of the cooler people you'd meet.

I think you might have meant to put that 'pro' in sarcastic quotes up there, or at least throw in a 'fake' somewhere. You know there are people who actually fight one another for money? It's usually even cheaper than the fake stuff. Highly recommended over the actors with their razors and aluminium ladders.

As for real wrestling, I enjoy watching wrestling matches when I can find 'em on tv, as well as the occassional Sumo wrestling matches on ESPN 2 late at night.

Pro wrestling is not fake...it´s 'coreographed'...which isn´t the same thing....
there´s no way to "fake" a 3 meter fall off a ladder into a stack of tables......you either take the fall or you don´t...it´s not like they´re using computer graphics.

as for the "real" stuff.......the fights are usually extremely short and I find it boring as hell.

it´s the same thing as watching Rocky or watching a real boxing match....
Rocky -> Fun
Real Boxing -> snoresville.
