From what I perceive of pro wrestling, it would not be sin to watch wrestling in
general or men wrestling, anymore than it would be wrong to watch boxing.

In pro wrestling though part of the draw for men seems to be the female
wrestlers, clad in revealing outfits. Wanting to watch these gals is understandable, doing so is probably not a wise idea for a Christian.

Verne Gagne - former King of the Ring, RIP:



Gagne, a Minnesota native, was an all-American wrestler for the Gophers in college before becoming a star in the National Wrestling Alliance during the “golden age” of television. Gagne joined the American Wrestling Association in 1960, instantly becoming its biggest attraction before eventually buying and promoting the outfit.

“He was a pioneer in modern day era wrestling,” legendary wrestling announcer Gene Okerlund told the Minnesota Star Tribune. “He was one of the first guys who became a television star. He was one of the first good-looking young guys. And I mean he was a real baby face. The gals loved him, the guys respected him because he was also one of the tough-nosed guys.”

Gagne won the AWA heavyweight title 10 times between 1960 and 1981, and he is one of a select few to have been inducted into four major wrestling halls of fame (WWE, WCW, Pro Wrestling and Wrestling Observer).

Skimpy outfits is why so many women watch mens sports whose costuming is far more revealing than womens costuming. If this is not suitable for Christians then the standard should be applied to women as well.
