American wrestling is mostly fake. But don't think the same about Japanese women wrestling. :)

It's more of an entertainment but you need to be athletic to a degree to pull off certain stunts and you don't get another chance to do it again. It's like with live TV, you get one take and you can't screw up or else. I don't consider it a legit sport mainly because you don't see highlights like on Sportscenter or even hear sports media people really giving it that type of credit. Of course, that's just in the United States and it could be treated differently in other regions of the world.

That's true. You can be really big but if you can't really move that well, it's not going to work out. Remember El Gigante or Giant Gonzalez for example? He's a case of being really tall but not very athletic. I think to some degree you need that in order to be successful.
