Locally, there’s a pro wrestling show this weekend. The wrestlers will be bumping, for sure. ---

Some weird kind of bumping going on here. ---

Or maybe not. Maybe it’s just plain bumping, the kind of bumping that happens all the time. The in-your-face, no-nonsense, this-is-the-bumping-we-came-here-to-do, kind of bumping. Say it loud: I bump and I’m proud. ---

Sometimes you just gotta take your bumps as they come. ---

Bumping the ref is a foul. ---

In pro wrestling, where the rules are often regarded as being written in pencil if the situation calls for them to be, referees do take bumps occasionally, and don’t call any fouls. Of course, they’re pretending to be unconscious, so they don’t see anything. ---
