I don't consider it a sport either. They are obviously very athletic people. Especially the luchadors(sp?).
But, in reality, there is no competition or game involved. It's a prearranged set of movements where they already know the outcome.
I'd consider it more akin to something like the Shaolin Wheel of Life things than I would a sporting event.
Again, i'm not saying the guys aren't athletic. That's obviously not true. Just isn't a sport, imo.
