I would say yes because all their moves have to be carefully trained too. I guess it can be somewhat like a sport since they are working out with the body movement.

I don’t think Cheer leading is really a sport, but it is.

Yeah... i don’t think it’s a sport in the least. Yes, it’s carefully planned out in advance but i think that’s one of the reasons that it wouldn’t be a sport, because you can’t really plan the outcome of a game in advance, can you? If wrestling wasn’t planned and they kept the same rules, it would basically be ultimate fighting with big dudes in tights...

In a sense. It is not really fake, just scripted and pre-determined. The pain a wrestler goes through is very real. It takes talent, athletic ability, and heck of a lot of endurance. In most Wrestling even the matches aren’t all that scripted, just the outcome.
Oh and a lot of wrestling fans are in their teens or early adulthood. We just like to call the ten year olds and women Cena fans.

ok, is valet a sport? cause I would classify wrestling as a guy valet, what with the choreographing and such.

then I don’t think that Wrestling is a sport, more of a act, like theater or a valet.

I think it’s part sport part theater.

You have to be both phically fit as well as be a good actor.

(and “sport” has a lot of different definitions...in this case it’s simply a physical activity that requires skill to preform)

I agree, not the reasoning, but the fact that I wouldn’t consider it a sport. It’s like the circus or theather, everything is choreographed, but it’s not considered a sport, even though it still takes a lot of skill and dicipline.
