5 reasons it's tougher to be a WWE superstar than a UFC fighter

#1 Working safely

WWE have to go the extra mile to not injure their opponents

Wrestling has actually incorporated many elements from Mixed Martial Arts so as to make the combat seem realistic. However, at the same time, they have to take care to not cause a real injury during the match. There's always the next town to go to. Where thousands of fans are in attendance, to watch these two men or women tear it up again.

It is incredibly difficult to fight inside an octagon. It is as difficult to simulate combat and make an audience buy into the action. It takes a lot of skill and a lot of psychology to be able to achieve this.
