It's not any better with the faked sports either. Of course, when the promotion is run by a bunch of idiots, and they let one of their headliners actually enter the ring high as fuck, what do you expect really? People paid $40 dollars for this on pay per view a few weeks ago....
A back story...Jeff Hardy has had major drug problems for years, and is facing federal charges. TNA Wrestling still decided to make him champ, he loses the title to Sting a few weeks ago, gets his rematch at a Pay Per View, and shows up stoned. He can barely stand as he walks to the ring, almost falls into the post coming up the steps. Before the match starts, Eric Bischoff comes out to "add a stipulation," but what he's really doing, and you can see it (5:30 in), is changing the script with the wrestlers because of Hardy's condition. Watch him whisper to each wrestler, then watch the match consist of a few punches, kicks and one actual wrestling move, then end in less than 45 seconds.
The actual "match" starts at about 8:40 and ends around 9:07
Considering this is scripted, had I paid for this, I'd be more pissed about this than boxing being a quick knockout.
