There are those who work for ESPN, however, that are completely against the network covering pro wrestling because of the fact that it's not a real sport.


They cover a LOT of things that are not real sports

What would they do? Predict winners?

They cant even predict college football with their experts.

As others have said they used to broadcast the AWA in the late 80s and early 90s and the UWF on ESPN2. In fact not too long ago about five years ago they showed that on ESPN Classic

I remember when ESPN had Australian Rules Football, ping pong, men's professional fast pitch softball, and other minor sports.

If they can show the X games they can cover SummerSlam and pro wrestling.
