Since the Attitude Era, the actual in-ring matches have rapidly grown to include moves and highspots that are increasingly dangerous. In an effort to "earn their spot", wrestlers are constantly trying to innovate and come up with new maneuvers that crowds have yet to see. This is done in an effort to get over and become attractions that fans all over the world will pay to see wrestle. The logic is sound and the motivations make sense, but an unfortunate drawback is the increased risk of injury. Wrestlers can get hurt throwing a simple pulled-punch but the chances of that happening are far less than when a wrestler attempts a 450° splash through a table on the outside of the ring. Science and mathematics combine to make an inarguable fact that today's professional wrestlers are at a much higher risk of getting seriously injured in a single match than their counterparts of the 1980s or 90s were. Simply put, today's wrestlers perform so many more complex, difficult, dangerous wrestling moves during their matches that wrestlers from previous decades never did. Though there are areas where the talents of today may not face the same struggles or may "have it easier" than previous generations, the in-ring work is definitely one place where they don't have it easier as their bodies are at much greater risk of breaking down.
