If it's a dancing competition... I say that because pro wrestling is scripted, "winning" really means nothing, it's like watching a fight in a movie, it's just entertainment (Van Damme winning the Kumite tournament in Bloodsports isn't something to be on the sports section, and it's as meaningful as a pro wrestling match...)

    I've never liked WWE but I don't think every move happening during the matches is scripted, and they're still out there performing stunts that require athleticism. Plus having a winner isn't really what defines a sport, because there are people doing like parkour or base jumping or other athletic displays that most people agree are sports.
