He said top wrestlers, not jobbers or mid card. I would agree with him.

For example Bret Hart was making 3 million a year in WCW. Divide that by 365 is around 8,000 a day. Doubt guys finishing outside top 10 in the Olympia make 8 grand.

Not even close. WWF would have survived. They were too big to fail, with almost zero competition, much as they are now.

Bodybuilding is a weird subculture, its not popular at all if you compare it to other "sports"

Show wrestling would've never become this popular when they looked like Joe the plumber

I suppose track sprinters should be thankful for bodybuilding for keep in their sport alive as well then?

Pot calling the kettle black. I guess wrestling implies sort sort of athleticism but calling it a sport would pretty much like saying Transformers is a documentary.

I know you're trolling, but they benefit from the principles of weight training

of course they do, but they dont depend on competitive bodybuilding to maintain their own sport as was suggested above.

The only comparison made with competitive BB was about drug use, not the training principles or whatsoever

of course he hated bodybuilders, they looked better than him and sold more tickets and pay per views than him

when he was the main guy in wwf, the company was in danger of going out of business so bret it's safe to say most like bodybuilder type bodies

vanity?  this is a guy that took himself so seriously he thought losing the title in canada would destroy his career ::)

bret has always been bitter as fuck and yes bret hart screwed bret hart

When I said without bodybuilders professional wrestling would have been dead a long time ago I meant that the pro wrestlers that got over and we're popular and physiques like bodybuilders or where action bodybuilders for failed bodybuilders themselves. Look at Hulk Hogan & Superstar Billy Graham.. Sting was a wannabe bodybuilder b4 wrestling.. Most the popular guys has physiques that looked like comic book characters. All my favorites were "bodybuilders", my top 2 favs like Ultimate warrior (as a kid)& Scott Steiner (in high school, upntil I quit watching. In 99. Is watch just tonsee what he'd do).. But there was also Rick rude,  Paul Orendorph, British bulldog, jimmy snuka, road warriors, sid vicious, warlord, lex lugar, dino bravo, macho man, Kerry von erich... Etc etc..   Esp the dudes in the 80's& early 90s, i know for me personally and for most my friends growing up, if all the wrestlers had physiques that resemble Roddy Piper, Ric Flair, and Jim Duggan I probably never would have watched... Or at least quit watching just as soon as i started watching in 1985-1986 (i remember specifically watching Hulk Hogan get beat up rolling over to his side and vomiting on the map while watching on our living room floor in my Garfield sleeping bag and thinking there's no way a dude who looksd like hogan could loose.. LoL).

Most pro wrestlers are at least athletes, as well as having to do some bodybuilding training for strength and their physique.

When I was a kid Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels were the most popular wrestlers in the WWF, and they didn't have bodybuilder physiques especially Shawn Michaels.

The 'bodybuilders' usually just looked good but most lacked wrestling ability, so their matches were often boring.

Shawn Michaels was one of the biggest steroid users in the WWF when he was there I mostly wanted more than anybody else to actually look like a bodybuilder.

And most fans when watching professional wrestling weren't watching it 4 the athletic technical ability they're watching it because it was a freak Show. Looknatbthe biggest draws Hulk Hogan (freak versus Andre The Giant (another freak). Most tuned in for the spectical

it's not a coincidence when those 2 were at the top the wwf was getting destroyed by wcw

the guys that look like super heroes are the money makers, that is why vince has always pushed them
