Ok I’m not from usa, so I dont really underestand wrestling. As far as I know its a scripted sketch with real phisical skill necessary to perform the act. But I keep reading about old champions or the first xxx race champion etc. What do you mean champion? If those are actors, so to speak, there are no champion, there is a script to follow. Its like saying Arnold swarzneger was the first terminator to defeat the advanced model in terminator2, what
? Please eli5.

I was thinking very negatively about it as well. Until I sat and watched a bunch of wrestling shows on YouTube. I realized it’s like a theater: character storylines, situations, special effects, tongue in cheek humor, self awareness and guilty fun. I also work at a theater and this kind of entertainment is meant to be just this: entertainment. However, it has deeper traditions and affects popular culture. So consider it as this: theatrical entertainment with sport like stuns and story lines.
