Even if the moves are scripted, all the bumps these guys take are real. But is it the same with all those metal equipment like chair, ladder or do those tables really hurt? Let's have a look at all those materials : Here’s a small piece from What Wrestling post explaining about those cheeky chair shots “To put simply, the chairs in the WWE are just normal folding chairs. However, the only difference is that they’ve had the rivets broken, so that when you, say, take a chair shot to the head, the metal of the chair will collapse and allow your head to bend the metal easily. So, essentially, while the chairs are made of metal, it is very thin metal which isn’t reinforced in any way. Does a chair shot to the head in WWE hurt?Just like a body slam would hurt. The WWE ring isn’t as soft as you may assume. Sure, it has some give to is, but it sure as hell isn’t soft. It is the same with the non-reinforced steel chairs. While there is plenty of give.

“The tables in the WWE are far more flimsy than the chairs. They’re just really thin chipboard, which can barely hold the weight of a man on them. In fact, there have been instances in the past where a wrestler lying on the table, waiting to be jumped on, has just randomly collapsed through the table. These tables are specifically created for wrestling purposes, and won’t hurt particularly. Well…they won’t hurt much more than experiencing a fully grown man frog splash you from the top rope. It’s still going to hurt and wind you a little.” So this concludes that they may not get hurt as much as it seems but this still isn’t something that a normal person can pull off and risk of injuries is always there. We should respect what these guys risk and go through for our entertainment. As far as I am aware, the chair is metal, though not steel as is usually said. The metal causes less damage and good sound effects when used. The ladder is also made of a light metal and is hollow.

However, they hurt bad when used, and wrestlers usually take precautions before using them. For example, the chair is used on the back, thus didtributing the force over a larger area, reducing pain. Also, in case of chair shots to the head (now banned by the WWE), the wrestler receiving the shot usually brings his hand up to protect his head, however, some wrestlers did take unprotected shots to the head. The same goes for the ladder shots.  The wrestlers take precautions but it still hurts, and sometimes, it can go horribly wrong. The sledgehammer, used by Triple H, is always real. HHH mentioned in an interview that he only used a fake hammer once in his career. He always covers the head of the hammer with his hand before hitting his opponent to minimise damage. Source: Secrets of the WWE ring and weapons you must know about 3.Ladders- These things are very dangerous. They hurt a lot. That is the reason why there are very few ladder matches. You see, here the technique doesn't matter a lot.

What matters is the structure and built of the ladder. The ladder is made up of hollow steel instead of solid steel to reduce impact. This also makes the ladder bend easily and it makes it look like the wrestler had quite an impact. All the equipment used in WWE to hit an opponent is absolutely real. Just the way of using it and making it is different. Why to go that far starting with weapons , we will start from very basic ones and then move on to chairs and ladders. Ring - This 20 by 20 feet structure contains spring( or something similar to it ). This doesn't create much impact on the wrestler when he falls down or thrown down. Mat - outside ring , there is a mat which is made up of foam and is used in JUDO/KARATE to reduce impact. So even if you jump from inside , nothing is gonna happen to you. They are usually 3/4“ thick and help protect the wrestler from the concrete beneath. The same foam coating is used to cover the barricades. Turn-buckle - The 3 corner joints are made of foam as we have seen it being riped many a times.

So falling head first won't hut you. Secondly , if someone (like Goldberg or Roman Reigns ) misses spear , you won't dash into the post as the gap is very less and the distance from turn buckle to post is quiet far and the cushions slows you down. Rope - The ropes are made of strengthening wires. These wires are tied around the squared circle through the turnbuckles and have a lot of tension so that they give the elastic effect when used right. The strengthening wires are first coated with a layer of foam which is held to the wire using coloured tape, which in turn gives us coloured ring ropes for different occasions. Sledgehammer - Triple H covers the sledgehammer with his hand whenever he hits someone with it. Chair - The chair is indeed metal but it is not always steel as they claim it to be. They use light metal to make the chair on most occasions. Usage of such metals causes less physical damage and at the same time produces good sound effects. Now, there are instances where real steel chairs are used, but irrespective of the metal used to make the chair, wrestlers follows a lot of safety measures while using them.
