[QUOTE="Primal, post: 4575930, member: 30678"] Yeah, it's pretty much about "feuds". Yet there was the love triangle between Kane and Edge and Lita (with Lita and Edge doing "it" in a bed set up in the ring). This storyline was actually based on what was going on between Edge and Matt Hardy and Lita behind the scenes (i.e. Lita, Hardy's girlfriend, was having an affair with Edge, Hardy's best friend). And there have been other, similar "love triangles" or marriages or lovers being threatened by another wrestler, and so on. But mostly it's about violence. Wrestlers have to portray emotions in an "overly dramatic" way in the same way that actors on stage (in a theatre) have to do it -- so that the whole audience can see and understand what's going on. It looks a lot sillier on TV than if you're sitting in the audience, but that's the same thing if you show a theatre drama on TV. [/QUOTE]
