Where do you think professional wrestling started? Professional wrestling started in backyards and in the freaking circus and then expanded to arena's and stadiums.

That is a really stupid reflection on the history of wrestling. Wrestling wasn't always spectacle you know.
Backyard wrestling, in the way that you described taking part in, is stupidity. If you wanna wrestle, do it safely, under professional guise, learn to take bumps, learn how to treat an opponent safely, learn how to do moves correctly, or take part in amatuer wrestling, you can learn basics, which can be transfered into learning how to wrestle properly. What you said you did is completely stupid, and quite frankly if you go and paralyse a friend, or do something really bad to yourself, you'll deserve it. Wrestling is something that requires a certain amount of skill, have you ever actually learnt how to take bumps? And please, don't turn around and say "yeah I know what to do, I've seen it on TV" Bullshit. Eric Kulas said that, and he got butchered.
Backyard Wrestling is ignorant of the wrestling business, because the people who take part in it suddenly believe they are as good as people who work there asses off for years just to make enough money to feed the kids, backyard wrestlers throw themselves around taking bumps that are quite frankly scary. I have seen some backyard wrestling which is truly disgraceful, as it takes no art other than butchering your best friend. This is disgusting.
Professional wrestling began by branching off from amatuer wrestling. Wrestling itself has evolved from fighting, not Backyard wrestling. Its about proving you are the better man, and then it evolved. You clearly have no idea, and while I do not wish pain on you, I hope something in the future makes sure you realise how fucking stupid you are.
