Why shouldn’t pro-wrestling be looked at as a legitimate sport?
Wrestlers put on an athletic show but it’s dismissed as not a real sport since the stories told are a work of fiction. Yet figure skating, cheerleading, and gymnastics all have routines which are planned in advance and preformed. All three are widely considered a sport. Shouldn’t wrestling also? And be covered by sport’s journalists?
And since they are open how it is a work of fiction, this invalidates the claim that it could be fake. It can only be fake if presented as a real competition and not make believe. It’s just fictitious.
