There's two things that make wrestling different in kind, a party lifestyle and painkillers for dealing with the fast schedule. Both of those have subsided from their late 20th century heights. The Ric Flair types got replaced by a bunch of athletic theater nerds, and painkiller abuse is understood as a thing in society. >There's calls for easier schedules, but as they say, the show must go on. It's not like there's a league setting the schedule. Wrestling promotions decide exactly how much they're going to work. WWE is sort of notorious that they work contracted talent balls-to-the-wall, where smaller promotions don't run as many shows in a week and independent wrestlers choose exactly how many bookings they take.
