Puroresu
Puroresu is a form of professional wrestling that originated in Japan. It combines athletic competition with theatrical performance, featuring scripted matches and storylines. Wrestlers, known as puroresu wrestlers, often showcase a mix of high-flying moves, technical grappling, and strong strikes, making it a unique spectacle.
Unlike traditional Western wrestling, puroresu emphasizes realism and the physicality of the sport. Promotions like New Japan Pro-Wrestling and All Japan Pro Wrestling are well-known for their intense matches and deep storytelling. Fans appreciate the dedication and skill of the wrestlers, who often train rigorously to perfect their craft.
