WWE

Everybody's heard of World Wrestling Entertainment - previously World Wrestling Federation. And everybody must have grown up with at least one favorite wrestler - be it Undertaker, Kane, Stone Cold Steve Austin, The Rock, Triple H or The Heartbreak Kid.

WWE is also indicative of the various tournaments and matches that these half-gods used to indulge in. As kids, we used to be fascinated by The Royal Rumble, or the Steel Cage Match. Wrestlers also used to sport belts and titles awarded to them, often made of silver and gold. And then there used to be legends and stories of how a couple of wrestlers were arch enemies since childhood. In this context, it is hard to forget the enmity between Undertaker and Kane.

Now that was a sport.
