Thats why I dont watch it. I dont have that kind of humor I guess . Like I said my son in law doesnt miss a match and if he thinks he will we have to tape it. And he beleives it all!

They are trying to just change the way the wrestlers are perceived. This is Vince McMahon's attempt to draw mainstream appeal once more after seeing the success that The Rock has had in Hollywood. In fact, it is no longer referred to as professional wrestling, it is now called as "sports entertainment".

Vince McMahon has always referred to his business as Sports Entertainment.

Well then it claims to be right, as the athletes that we see in the world wrestling entertainment are bodybuilders rather than wrestlers. Moreover the fights that we see are scripted.

Yes, I would say there more entertainers now and can understand why they would switch to being referred to as entertainers.

i didnt think people watched this anymore. If their entertainers then they should change the name of the show because it is clearly not wrestling its just entertaining acting.

They got to have some skill to not hurt each other but yeah its basicly acting more than anything.
