A real wrestler will punch holes in to this body builders WWE, they are just pumpedup with steroids, small children think they fight for real, they should be called WWES (World Wrestling Entertaining Stuntsmen), today school boys enjoy seeing them insult our flag, what a shame, they can apologize to Brazil but not India why? Are they super humans above the country, when people don't ask questions these senas will rise and many more will emerge.

I don't understand why people watch this make-believe stuff anyway. Scripted shows with actors. Why this is entertaining to anybody, is a mystery. To each his/her own, I suppose.

Respect should be given to the national flag. Dont cry foul when kashmiris or pakistani's do the same
