Professional wrestling


Modern professional wrestling is a little different from traditional wrestling as it has predetermined outcomes and in some promotions, "feuds" are used to build up a championship match. Performers mostly utilize the traditional Anglo-American catch wrestling holds. Professional wrestling, over the years, has become one of the most popular sports to watch and is practiced all over the world. Popular professional wrestlers through the years include William Muldoon, Georg Hackenschmidt, Frank Gotch, Joe Stecher, Ed "Strangler" Lewis, Jim Londos, Bill Longson, Lou Thesz, Gorgeous George, Buddy Rogers, Rikidozan, El Santo, Blue Demon, Verne Gagne, Bruno Sammartino, Giant Baba, Mil Mascaras, Antonio Inoki, Andre the Giant, Jumbo Tsuruta, Ric Flair, Shawn Michaels, Mitsuharu Misawa, The Rock, Steve Austin, The Undertaker, Triple H and Hulk Hogan.
