Bobby Fish: Wrestling Fans Are Conditioned To Sound, But Leg Slaps Are Overdone

When it comes to the sounds of professional wrestling, Bobby Fish believes that fans are conditioned to hear certain sounds when they’re watching a match.

All Elite Wrestling‘s Bobby Fish was a recent guest on the Two Man Power Trip of Wrestling Podcast to discuss a wide variety of subjects. When asked about the overuse of “leg slaps” in professional wrestling, Fish said he believes that wrestling fans are conditioned to act to sounds they hear during a match.

“I think pro wrestling fans have been conditioned to react to sound,” Bobby Fish said. “And so, again, it’s been overdone, and some people, I think they get to a point where they can’t not slap something. And I don’t want to get into the tricks of the trade because there’s a lot of slaps that go on and pro wrestling, but it’s overdone for sure.”

Fish also spoke about the use of MMA in pro wrestling, explaining that he doesn’t really have a problem with it — but talent need to put in the work if they’re going to add it into their repertoire.

“They will remain nameless, but there are those in pro wrestling that have gone out and — if they were putting the reps in, I don’t know where the f-ck they were putting them in. But they still to this day will throw head kicks and different things and it’s like … I can’t call it martial arts. I don’t know what to call it,” Fish stated. “My step-daughter who is nine and never trained a day in her life could throw a better head kick than some of these people.”
