Say what you will about professional wrestling, but the sport has mastered the art of smack talking in order to drive up interest and put butts in seats. Companies like the WWE have made smack talking an art form that’s permeated throughout the American pop culture. In fact, it also has permeated through other professional sports like MMA.
What was once an archaic battle between two fierce combatants, has now become a WWE-style circus with chaotic press conferences and entertaining interviews. The smack talking has become so prevalent that it has transformed the sport and left us with unforgettable moments.
