No. Real wrestling is pretty good. I used to be on the wrestling team. Hard as crap!

[newjak]

Yeah pro wrestling is all staged so I don't count it asa true sport.

No Olympic style Wrestling is very hard and a fun sport.

[The Big Daddy C-Master]

I say it's a sport as the athletes are real and everything, and it's very physically demanding, very hard.

Even so, that does not make it wrestling. You do not punch, strike, kick etc. in wrestling.

Wrestling is a vague term that consists of many styles on many levels. Any of those athletes are leagues more gifted than the ones you see in "normal" wrestling matches, trust me.

[darthrevan]

The wrestlers on TV are not that gifed. Every punch etc. looks fake, and none of them can act. I prefer a sport where the competitors are actually competing against each other.

You serious? The stuff they do is very physically demanding and dangerous, they are very endowed with knowledge, it doesn't matter if it's fake or not, any one of those guys have what it takes to murder anyone in some school or state team, those people go to wrestling college for years and even then they don't stand a chance. Furthermore alot of them have done UFC fighting as well. These same guys wrestle in Japan for years and dominate there.

Actually they have to appeal to the audience or they don't get a job, being a boring grappler isn't enough (no offense). They compete in various ways, they diet and train intensly, have you seen the regime of Goldberg? Or Brock Lesnar? Olympic Gold Medalist Kurt Angle even said it's the hardest thing he's ever done. I'd give them more credit than that.

Don't get me wrong, I've hated wrestling on television for quite some time now. Ever since about 2000 or so. But I wouldn't say they deserve no respect either.

[darthrevan]

I guess so, but it is still not my thing.

[newjak]

It may be physically demanding bit in order for me to consider it a sport it has to be an actual competive match with an undetermined outcome. Pro Wrestling is pre determined and therefore more entertainment then sports

[Origin: 1350–1400; ME; aph. var. of disport]

A sport is anything that has a level of athleticism. Or some competetive goal, fishing, you name it. It's no secret that wrestling is predetermined but it's sports entertainment. That's the best way to define it, it's more aimed to entertain than to be undetermined, because most athletes in other sports couldn't do what they do.

I've seen a defintion that said it was where an individual and team compete against eachother in an athletic competition as stated in the Oxford Dictionary 11th Edition.

Sports are whenn people compete to win. Prof wrestling people entertain and don't actually compete to out perform the other.

I mean Stunt Men havea hard job that requites a lot of altheltic ability but they aren't competing a sport's event.

[The Big Daddy C-Master]

But what about Fishing and other card games, those are sports.

They do compete alot more than you think, it's very demanding to get any if much attention and feedback in the industry, even if you go to the college you might not appeal alot.

The competition is athletic and it takes alot of drilling to master, wrestlers have broken their necks and the like. It also depends on where they are, of course you mean things like the WWE and it's strictly entertainment. But the sport is the entertainment. Those men are gifted athletes. Sports never said it couldn't be predeterimined, just that it's a competition mainly. Even game sessions are considered sports.

But they aren't competeing everything is planned out ahead it is likr a dance thought of ahead of time.

I'm not taking away from their athletic ability they are great athltes but just because they are doesn't mean their in a sport and for your info I don't count fishing and Poker as a sport.

But it's still a sport by definition despite the intricancies.
