Pro wrestling, short for professional wrestling, refers to a form of entertainment that combines athleticism with theatrical performance. It features scripted matches and storylines, where wrestlers, often portraying larger-than-life characters, engage in choreographed bouts to entertain audiences. Unlike competitive sports, the outcomes of pro wrestling matches are predetermined, and the focus is on storytelling, character development, and dramatic rivalries.
Pro wrestling events typically take place in arenas and are broadcast on television or streamed online, drawing millions of fans worldwide. The performers, known as wrestlers or superstars, undergo rigorous training to execute complex maneuvers safely and effectively. The genre encompasses various styles and promotions, each with its unique presentation and fanbase. Major organizations, such as WWE (World Wrestling Entertainment), have contributed significantly to the mainstream popularity of pro wrestling, blending athletic prowess with showmanship to create a spectacle that captivates audiences.
