Pro wrestling matches are usually scripted, and outcomes are determined before matches even begin. Opponents often plan out moves, rehearse bouts, and discuss strategies with each other prior to a match. When things do not go according to plan in the ring, however, wrestlers are required to improvise. They often communicate through whispers and hand gestures to coordinate moves and let each other know what to expect. An experienced pro wrestler may also use his or her improvisational skills to boost the excitement and intensity of a dull match by engaging with the crowd and confronting the referee.
