Blood = real (note: shallow cuts on the head have a habit of bleeding more than would seem normal from a shallow cut... but a shallow cut is all it usually is)
Hits = real (note: they literally learn how to take a hit so that, while it connects, it really doesn't do too much damage. Ever see what happens when a dropkick misses but the guy still goes down like it hit?), depending on what they are being hit with. Tables, ladders and chair? Real impacts. Sledgehammers? not likely. If it sounds like a metallic clang, its an impact... if they step forward and stop the ground as they hit, usually not.
Stunts = real, but with "every" safety measure taken.. including lessons on how to make something look worse than it really is.
Scripted performance = real
Heh, why do you think so many wrestlers are seen in movies? They've taken the acting lessons. I'm not saying they are GOOD actors, but they are still actors.
