Where would i find whether the NCAA deems pro wrestling an interference with their amateurism rules?

hey there asked:


I’m an athlete at a D 1 school looking to make a little extra money by professional wrestling, like WWE. I have heard that wrestling promotions consider themselves sports-entertainment in order to get insurance. I don’t want to give up my amateur status, so i need to find out whether or not I am breaking the NCAA regulations. I don’t think I will be, where pro wrestling is scripted and isn’t considered a sport.
Thanks for the help. =D

Why is the general assumption in the wrestling category that any topic must be focused “pro” wrestling?

Why is the assumption, and the inevitable argument to follow, that any discussion of wrestling must be about “pro” wrestling. I’ve seen multiple questions about actual wrestling where the asker has been taunted or misinformed by people in this category. This category is actually under “sports”…thus, dedicated to the sport of wrestling. It is not under “soap operas”, “acting”, “entertainment”, or some other category that would be more appropriate to the topic of “pro” wrestling. Why is it hating when people want to ask about the actual sport of wrestling?
