Professional wrestling strikes

Okay, so you know how when you play pretend fighting or tag with your friends, sometimes you pretend to hit each other? Well, grown-ups sometimes do that too, but in a special way called professional wrestling.

There are different kinds of pretend hits, called strikes, that wrestlers use. Some strikes are like pretend punches, where one wrestler makes a fist and pretends to hit the other wrestler's body. But don't worry, they don't actually hit each other for real because that would be too dangerous.

Other strikes are like pretend kicks, where one wrestler pretends to hit the other wrestler's body with their foot. Again, they don't kick for real because that would be too dangerous.

Sometimes wrestlers also pretend to hit each other with their elbows, forearms, or even their heads. But remember, it's all pretend and they don't actually hurt each other.

So overall, strikes are pretend hits that wrestlers use to make their pretend fighting look more exciting, but they don't actually hit each other for real because that would be too dangerous. Cool, huh?
