Thing is, Rik, I don't see wrestling (certainly not WWE, anyway) as sport. For me, it's the same as watching any other TV show, or movie. It's a scripted piece of fictional entertainment, where people portray characters designed by a creative team behind the scenes. These entertainers then act out fights in front of a live audience (which in a way is more impressive than film or TV, as there's no re-takes if you slip up), often to a pre-determined result.
If you're not a fan of it, that's fair enough. Though, I do wonder why you'd feel the need to come into a thread dedicated to it just to voice your disapproval of it? If there was a football thread, I wouldn't go in there to say how much I dislike the sport.

Anyway, one for the wrestling fans here. Brian Danielson (Daniel Bryan) & Claudio Castagnoli (Cesaro) vs Mike Quackenbush & Jigsaw before their WWE days on the independent circuit, Chikara:
