some do, some don't. depends how much time you have on your hands really. there are a good amount of people who copy the text of the match from whatever simulator they're using. I used to do that, but now I just include the important parts of the match + the ending.
It's a matter of preference. Also depends what audience you want to appeal to more. There are those people who want to be entertained by your narrative of a match unfolding, and those people who just want quick results.
Writing your own matches is time consuming though, so I wouldn't recommend you going that direction if you think it'll tire you out and suck the motivation out of this

Yeah, do what you want. There's a few 'types' people do;
-Results in the way as if it was actually happening as you read it. For example it would like; 'Rey Mysterio runs off the ropes, and hits Orton with a dropkick!'
-Results similar to the way WWE.com does it. With the first paragraph being the most improtant, ect. Read WWE.com's Raw results for an example
-(The way I do it) As if you were reading quick results on gerweck.com or something like that, with high points of the match, and the ending.
If I'm missing any others, please tell me
