In a typical wrestling match, tension and drama are built through a variety of techniques such as near falls, submission holds, high-impact moves, and storytelling in the ring. Wrestlers use these elements to create a sense of excitement and uncertainty, keeping the audience engaged and on the edge of their seats. Additionally, the pacing of the match, the reactions of the crowd, and the wrestlers' ability to convey emotion through their performance all contribute to building tension and drama throughout the match.
