Pro fighting is a type of entertainment that is seen it terms of a game and a performing art, it is very common in the Latin America, Europe, North America and Japan. Its scripted form has in most cases been a subject of criticism owing to the fact that it is of a deceiving nature when compared with other fighting games such as boxing, martial arts and amateur brawling. None of the major promoter or wrestler has denied existence of prearranged outcome of matches. A look into the history of professional wrestling is as abridged below.
Brawling as a sport sprung out as a consequence of the travelling festival strongman who in most cases would pose a challenge for a fight in the ring or last for only ten minutes. As time went by, the carnies realized that by charging entry fee they could be in a position to make a lot of money instead of relying on the entry fee by fighters. The wrestlers portrayed as villains to the crowd and used fake names so as to encourage betting.
As the nineteenth century neared its end, organizers put events in arenas just like boxing. For some decades, numerous occasions on grappling got held by dissimilar individual promoters. There was presence of championship belts which held no real authority. The National Wrestling Association was formed in 1901 by promoters and it gave a sole belt for championship.
Regional leagues were formed when NWA divided brawling sometime after the world war two had come to a standstill. A gentleman agreement was settled that prohibited tapping of talent from other confederations or enlarging their arena into the agreed confederation. The Northeast federation known by name of World Wide Wrestling Federation turned defiant, immediately after shortening their name to being World Wrestling Federation they broke the informal agreements.
By the 1980s the remaining old regional NWA was operating in the Southeast. It was in actual fact named the NWA before it was later bought and its name got changed into World Championship Wrestling. It was able to overshadow the WWF and for some time was on top as it drew top talent from its rival and got higher ratings than them.
WWF experienced its lowest moments at a time when several factors that included poorly conceived storylines and federal investigation on the distribution of steroids hit it. Inventive approaches and young talented wrestlers were able to see its rise to recovery. It took over the WCW in 2001 and came over control of video library, wrestlers and trademarks making WCW disappear from existence.
The Extreme Championship Wrestling also was a league that influenced greatly the pro tussling. It was a small league that acquired fans through its broadcasting on local sports airwaves at late night. Their fighting styles incorporated rough styles that are risky and audacious making it look insane. It quickly went bankrupt and was purchased by WWF who embraced the blood chilling fighting styles.
A successful court case by the World Wildlife Fund made WWF shift its name to the World Wrestling Entertainment as a result of the conflicting acronyms. With the incorporation of the hardcore fighting styles in the mainstream, the sport has received a wider audience who enjoy the adrenalin filled matches.
