Professional wrestling in the United States, up until the 1920s, was viewed as a legitimate sport. This respectability did not endure as professional wrestling became identified with modern theatrics, or admitted fakeness ("kayfabe"), moving away from being a showcase for true competition. The scripted nature of the art has made critics view it as an illegitimate sport, particularly in comparison to boxing and amateur wrestling. Ironically, no major promoter or wrestler denies that modern professional wrestling has predetermined match outcomes.
