Wrestling

«Fribryting» omdirigeres hit. For stilarten innen olympisk bryting, se fristil (bryting).
John Cena og Dave Bautista

Profesjonell wrestling,[1] også kalt fribryting eller bare wrestling, er en blanding av sport og teater. Profesjonell bryting kan relatere til enhver bryter i alle bryting-stilarter som utøver bryting som en hoveddel av et arbeidsforhold, eller som har sin hovedinntekt fra bryting.

Uttrykkets opprinnelse

Uttrykket stammer fra «professional wrestling»-ligaene i USA, hvorav WWE nå regnes som den mest innflytelsesrike. Wrestling er engelsk for bryting.

Fribryting

På norsk regnes i dag «wrestling» og «fribryting» som mer eller mindre synonyme uttrykk.

Vedrørende uttrykket «fribryting» er det blitt hevdet at «NM i fribryting er kun avholdt i perioden 1948-54.»[2] Den gang siktet man til bryting-stilarten som finnes i OL, som i dag kalles blant annet fristil-bryting. I slike sammenhenger har norske medier stort sett sluttet å bruke uttrykket «fribryting».

Utbredelse

Profesjonell wrestling er mest kjent i USA, men er også kjent i blant annet Japan og Mexico.

Arrangører

Den største arrangør av turneringer er WWE i USA. De kaller wrestlingen for «sports entertainment» (sportsunderholdning). En del andre wrestling-forbund er også rimelig store, men havner i skyggen av WWE. Nummer to på "rangstigen" er Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA). Enda en arrangør er Florida Championship Wrestling, forkortet til FCW. En god del brytere har tatt steget fra FCW til WWE.

Ohio Valley Wrestling (OVW) har også sine egne belter, blant annet OVW Heavyweight Championship. Ring of Honor (ROH) er et annet wrestling-forbund i USA og har tidligere ansatt stjerner som Jeff Hardy, Paul London, Samoa Joe, Colt Cabana og CM Punk.

Norge

I Norge er profesjonell wrestling organisert av Norges Wrestlingforbund, m.fl.

Profesjonelle wrestlere

  • Hulk Hogan, jobber i World Wrestling Entertainment og har en lang historie i WWE samt en liten stund i World Championship Wrestling og Total Nonstop Action. Han blir sett på som en av de mest gjenkjennelige fribryterne gjennom tidene.
  • Ric Flair, 16 ganger World Champion. Har wrestlet i NWA, WCW, WWE og TNA.
  • Gromguten, norsk wrestler i NWF.
  • Bjørn Sem, norsk wrestler i NWF.
