8 Things About Wrestling That Just Don’t Make Sense

4. Wrestlers Who Can't Climb Ladders

There are many great mysteries in life. Why are we here? What is our purpose? Why was The Miz ever a WWE Champion? There is one great mystery however that pops its head up all the time in wrestling that nobody knows the answer to €“ Why do wrestlers not know how to climb a ladder? Every wrestling fan, at some point in their life, has presumably seen a ladder match. During their first time watching such a match I wouldn€™t doubt that every wrestling fan probably wondered why watching the wrestlers€™ woeful attempts to master the art of ladder climbing only served to remind them of the scene in €˜Bambi€™ when Bambi first learns how to walk. However the thing that is most frustrating about this apparent inability to climb a ladder isn€™t just the fact that we assume they are much better at it. It€™s the fact that, more often than not, we €œknow€ that they are more than capable of doing it because of the way they flew up the ladder in the early stages of the match when they wanted to jump off it onto their opponent! It€™s not until later in the match, perhaps after one too many shots to the head, they seem to forget everything they ever knew about ladders. Hell, some of them even struggle when it comes to setting the ladder up! It just doesn€™t make sense!
