Barb, Oh yes, that is in fact almost exactly what it is, a very carefully choreographed "dance" these days in "professional" wrestling. When I was a young teenager, Bruno Sammartino (former champion) was my "idol", and that got me into weight lifting so I could be just like him!

(I made the mistake of taking my mother with me to Madison Square Garden in the mid-1960's to see Bruno vs. Gorilla Monsoon, and she was yelling like a nut at the top of her lungs! Oh well, I guess that sort of wrestling is therapeutic) <G> Yogi
