|  Finally an Armbar tapout in the wwe!
YouTube - Alberto Del Rio Finisher
So the wwe had the debut of this new latin wrestler on smackdown this week named Alberto Del Rio. I just watched the clip of his match and he does a really slick looking armbar finish!!!
So what are the odds of seeing that move in a mma cage anytime soon? It looks do-able... but then again, I'm just a fan, not a fighter.

I don't get how people find WWE amusing , bunch of guys pretending that they are fighting, dropping each other around like monkeys... And I still can't believe that there is people that thinks this is for real... few days ago I saw few guys talking about it and I said "Its sad because its fake" and they start to arguing with me that this is for real and I am like WTF...

ehhh, its just a form of entertainment. You can't help but to watch it if you were really into it as a kid.
Who cares if its fake? So are movies. People who get shot on screen aren't really getting killed in real life, and monsters are really not there, its just CGI effects. That doesn't stop you from watching them does it?

The thing I find weird is how many people enjoy Boxing or MMA & still LOVE this fake Wrestling.
It's like why are you watching that fake shit when can watch the real thing?
(I guess it's similar to boobs. Whether or not it's Fake or Real they're still boobs & they're still enjoyed).
And yeah I know it's Entertainment, but so is Reality TV & it doesn't mean that's any good either.

Alberto del Rio is actually Dos Caras Jr., a former MMA fighter that had some wins over unknown fighters in small organizations and is more famous because he fought in pride against Mirko and Kazuhiro nakamura, of course he lost both matches.
About WWE, anyone who thinks WWE is real obviously has never been in a real fight.
I think pro wrestling is a nice entertainment for children and when they have nice storylines it becomes also entertaining for adults, problem is that now they suck in storylines.
Only reason I still watch sometimes WWE is only because of the Undertaker, that takes big layoffs every year. And now they are giving him again a rivalry against kane, that feud was great back in 97, 98, even in 2004 it was still decent. But today it absolutely sucks. Kane is slow as hell and with the WWE policy to make the matches the less violently possible, this feud will be boring.
To be honest I hope they dont do BJJ moves anymore, because in a real situation if you are trapped in an armbar either you tap inmediately, either your arm breaks in few seconds.
I guarantee you that in some weeks we will see Dos caras making an armbar and his opponent will resist for 2 minutes and then he will find an escape. That is ridiculous and it is an offense to BJJ and Martial Arts.
The worst of all is that there are morons that will think that WWE guys are tough guys and MMa fighters are pussies that tap like bitches.

I think it depends what wrestling you watch...if you watch the wrestling from nowadays, fuck that...if you watch wrestling from the 90's then its all good...

i stopped watching it when i was like a junior in high school or something the stories got too stupid for me but mad people i knew still watched it then and some still do just because it was entertaining.
but i hate it now its so dumb but people arent necessarily watching it because of the fighting or because they think its real.

At least it beats monster truck rallies. I could never understand the draw of those.
