    you have a point, but since it's on ESPN the debate will continue here
    plus there are a few or more than a few that believe it is a sport

    It can be deceivingly complex as you’ve said, but also quite simple.

    My wife never followed it or watched it growing up but I was able to explain what my eyes see and she could also see it....if that makes any sense?

    Its not Mensa level entertainment/sports (I was being facetious) but I think people could appreciate it with a little more understanding.

    You have a good grasp on what some do enjoy it for. I honestly cant say specifically what I look for...I take what is given and see if I can appreciate what that character is trying to do.

    Its fun to criticize and be creative with it but sometimes its fun to just see aggression taken out in a manner thats not quite as graphic as something like ufc or boxing.

    It’s just science. Studies show men who enjoy wwe live more productive and happy lives than men who watch ufc. Apparently it’s something to do with being bullied as a child or deep seated feelings of inadequacy that cause people to watch ufc.
