— Years ago WWE distanced itself from the phrase “wrestling” and championed their own brand of “sports entertainment.” Now, the company is moving even farther away from the notion that their product is in any way athletic. WWE informed all of their announcers this week to refer to their talent strictly as “entertainers” as opposed to wrestlers or even Superstars, effective immediately. According to PWInsider.com, the decision is part of a organized plan to re-classified the company as an “entertainment touring event”, as posed to a legitimate sporting event. WWE’s intention with this new classification is to take power away from the Athletic Commissions in certain States and keep the company from having to pay taxes on their live events.
