WWE
There's no two ways about it, the WWE is the world's premier and most explosive wrestling organization. Founded by Jess McMahon and Toots Mondt in 1952 as Capitol Wrestling Corporation, the organization eventually became the largest wrestling corporation in the world, hosting more than 500 events per year. But it wasn't until Vince McMahon bought Capitol Wrestling from his father and became CEO in 1980 that the WWE gained footing as a legitimate wrestling dynasty. This was largely due to the massive strides McMahon made in turning it into a global phenomenon.

First, he signed little-known prospects like Hulk Hogan, Roddy Piper, and Jesse Ventura, all of whom went on to become superstars. Then, McMahon invented a little event called WrestleMania, and featured André the Giant, King Kong Bundy, Ricky Steamboat, The Iron Sheik, Nikolai Volkoff, and more. Its main event saw Hulk Hogan and Mr. T beating Paul Orndorff and Roddy Piper, overseen by a guest referee, none other than Muhammad Ali. It's not surprising, then, that WrestleMania would go on to become one of the world's most beloved annual sporting events. Additionally, McMahon wasn't just a behind-the-scenes businessman, he became a frequent participant in matches. By blending the business and wrestling aspects into a continuous drama, he lent the organization a soap-opera narrative, which remains one of its most attractive features.

There was a full roster of hardcore brawlers, including Shawn Michaels, Bret Hart, and "Macho Man" Randy Savage. As spectatorship grew and wrestlers multiplied exponentially, the WWE added regular events like Monday Night Raw, Monday Nitro, and Raw Is War. The New World Order (nWo) was introduced as a splinter faction. WWE saw a full-on renaissance, with new wrestlers like Stone Cold Steve Austin, Mankind, and The Rock being introduced. The WWE launched a 24/7 streaming network.
Fan reviews:

My son and I had a wonderful time. The matches were fun and on point. Will definitely go to the next event. WWE Rules!

The best experience ever! This was my first WWE event and it didn’t fail me! I attended the event by myself, but I had such a fun and awesome experience! Every person I came across was super nice, and I was truly satisfied with everything!

Amazing! Really enjoyed the event. Everything from start to finish. My Son loved every moment.

OMG, the best experience ever. Money well spent. Went to celebrate my grandson's birthday. He was on top of the world. The show was spectacular.

Always a good show. We have done several WWE events and it is always a great time. We did our first ringside experience and would love to do it again. Everything is nicely organized. The wrestlers and staff was amazing and we had loads of fun!

Amazing night. It was an amazing night, I got to see my favorite wrestlers! It was my wife's first show and she really enjoyed her self. We can't wait for WWE to come back so we can go again.

WWE rocked my son's world! Even though the seats were high up, we loved it. The technical wizardry, lights that were a character unto themselves made the hype even more exciting! What was bedazzling was the authenticity of the guys' performance with nonstop show-stopping maneuvers that gave my son a memory that will last for a long time, especially for a six year old.

WWE delivers again! I’ve been a pro wrestling fan since I was a toddler. I’m in my 30s now and that passion hasn’t changed. It’s the first form of entertainment I fell in love with. The crowd was into the show. The atmosphere was crazy.
