Canonically, why do wrestlers set up ladder bridges? They don't help them climb the ladder to get the contract/belt, it's purely to set up a high impact spot, usually for another wrestler.

The goal of a ladder match is not to hurt your opponents, it's to climb the ladder to get whatever is hanging above the ring. If you have time to set up a bridge, you have time to climb.

It takes longer to climb than it does to set up the bridge though, evidently.

But wrestlers know that unless their opponents are properly destroyed, that they will immediately put a stop to any ladder climbing shenangians.
Therefore, everyone knows they have to figure out ways to decisively stop your opponent from recovering in time to prevent your tired, slow climb up the precarious ladder.
Hence, setting up the high spots in advanced, hoping that it isn't used against you.

it's the same psychology behind using chain moves, or punches and kicks before big moves. you have to soften up your opponent with finesse before you attack them with the big moves and lay them down. setting up a ladder so you drop them on it is another move you have to do to win

The goal of every wrestling match is to hurt your opponent. State of e-drones.

The goal to a match is to put someone’s shoulder to the mat for 3 seconds. Why would I care about hurting a champion over beating him and taking his championship from him and making more money

Your opponents will have a much harder time stopping you from climbing a ladder if they can no longer walk.

If it was up to you Jim Cornette-ass niggas, we'd never get memorable spots like Shelton running up the ladder to clothesline Jericho or Edge spearing Jeff Hardy while he was hanging in the air
God damn you niggas like to nitpick over fake fighting
It's supposed to be entertaining more than it's supposed to be realistic, you assclowns

Did you even look at what comment is being replied to? Is every match a ladder match?

they stabilize the ladder so the other wrestlers can't push the ladder over and also the ladder is in the ring which isn't always the most stable surface
