Honest question about professional wrestling

[Chronic]

and i think chronic might be wondering about Sting

Yes! He was my favorite together with Bret Hart back when I had a 2 month wrestling period. It happened to coincide with my love for wearing spandex around the house and sitting on my brothers' faces.

I liked Sting when he used to have the pink and blue paint :laugh:

That's nothing, I liked Sting when he was rocking the Power Team USA gimmick;

i wouldn't say that there is not competition in pro wrestling. obviously there is no compition when it comes to the title shots but these guys have to compete against one another to win over fans by developing their character, their moves, being good in the ring, making it believable. the more they win over the fans the more time in the ring they get and the better their career becomes.

the wrestling companies can try all day long to try and give someone a push and the crowd will just not buy it and that happens all the time. it's really up to that individual to compete against their fellow wreslters to try and be better than another one and develope their character so the audience will buy it.

Yeah but sport is a competition where at least 2 people challenge each other using their own bodies to the fullest imo.

tho there are many interpretations of word "sport".
There are people considering chess or all those vehicle races as sports but still they are real life competitions - I don't but still even in those examples I used above at least 2 people use all their skills to win.
In Wrestling they already know who will "win" before the fight starts but still it's the kind of "challenge" where "winning" by means of rules is not the most important for being successful.
That's also why it's not sport.
Being successful in Wrestling = being a good actor with needed skills.
