| - Sports Entertainment bezeichnet die Wrestlingauffassung des heutigen Marktführers WWE. Erstmals Ende der 1970er Jahren von der damaligen WWF erwähnt. Der Begriff bezieht sich auf den hohen Anteil von Soap Opera-ähnlichen Elementen durchsetzten Storylines, die mit einer athletischen Choreografie kombiniert werden. Sports Entertainment dient also zur reinen Unterhaltung. Der Ausdruck wird von Fans häufig auch auf andere Ligen wie TNA bezogen und als Abgrenzung zu mehr auf das Pro-Wrestling an sich fixierten Promotionen wie Ring Of Honor verstanden.
