Sport is supposed to influence the lives of people
positively and not negatively. There have been complaints about the damage that
pro wrestling is doing to the American society.
the CEO’s call it entertainment but as we know it, it is a theatre full
of cons. however this does not end there as statistics indicate that the number
of young people watching these NAPW matches have continued to grow. This is the
same number reflected to the cases of violence that have been reported so far.
All fingers are being pointed towards the influence of pro wrestling in the
society.
The incidents of violence however have not influenced the
adults much as they have influenced children. Children are the future leaders.
And if the future leaders will go to be violent then it is disturbing. Parents
are voicing out their anger with the pro wrestling companies as a majority of
them have stated NAPW complaints that they have not changed behavior in
their children after being exposed to pro wrestling material. Many have argued
that the government should consider pulling these shows off considering the
harm they are causing to the society at large. The influence that pro wrestling
has played is unrivalled as other sports are not known to interfere with the
children’s behavior like pro wrestling is doing.
It is no exception when it comes to the adults. A research and
also some NAPW reviews carried out by one of the universities unfolded that there
is a connection between professional wrestling and date rape. This is a thing
that the media is always shy to let people know as mostly those in the
wrestling do not share any information with the public. It has been reported
however that many pro wrestlers are either on drugs or steroids. Young people
in America today are looking out for people they can make their role models.
And with the statistics showing that at least one million of the viewers are
children then in this number it is only logical for some to have their role
models in pro wrestling. If the role model then happens to be a drug user then
it is only normal for children to try them out to feel how their role models
feel. Due to this the number of teenagers hooked to drugs is on the rise.
During the young age it’s the time when children are learning things. Normally,
they do this by internalizing. It is therefore possible for them to internalize
the aggression that is exposed in the pro wrestling. The content mostly
broadcasted is not censored which also leaves the society at odds with pro
wrestling. Unlike other sports pro wrestling is the only game where you will
find a lot of vulgarities. It is extreme in some instances where female
wrestlers if they have to win have to tear the competitor’s inner wear and so
on. This leaves a great number of people in the society torn since they are not
aware what is good or not.
