Ignorance. The results are pre-determined, but the performers still have to be real athletes with an incredible amount of coordination, strength, and timing in order to do what they do well. Anone who's seen some of the crap that goes on at small or BY feds knows how much of a 'real' athlete it takes to be a wrestler at the highest levels.
No, it isn't "real" in the way footbal or boxing is ( although more and more boxing matches seem to be pre-determined as well) but saying it's fake implies that the workers in the ring are untrained goofs who aren't putting themselves at risk when they enter the ing.
That simply isn't the case.
