Relating theather to my major !









With me being a communications major this is great for business the better and more popular wrestling gets the more there jobs that will become available . If your were to break it down though this wrestling world would not exist without communication graduates . From a marketing stand point you need these people to promote events but what people dont relize is that this is a joint effort from the wrestlers to the commentators . when ever you would see stone cold steve austin in the ring he would most likly have on a stone cold steve austin shirt . I mean they could put it in a commercial but why not just save money and have the superstars wear there own apparel , So when us the fans see them wearing it reinforces the fact that if we want to show how much we like or appreciate the wrestlers why not go buy one of his shirts . Its just not the wrestlers who are benefiting from this major companies get there hand in on it as well snickers, pepsi , Kfc Just to name a few have at one time or another had there name on an event to help reach a new demographic .






You also cant forget the journalist and script writers . These are your real life Gps for our imigination , This is what gives us our direction they let us know when to love a superstar or when to hate a superstar depending on what they choose to write out for a particular wrestler. they keep us on the edge of our seat . They allow us to see into a world that not only depicts athletsicm and body building but they give is a since of passion mixed in with a mix a controversy , followed by a continuing them of victory and defeat. They make up and enhance these identities we build for our favorite wrestlers. They keep the plot and the legacy of a wrestler alive through the way that they manipulate our brains . Ive notices as of late that the wrestling world has also picked up on the recent change of the televison world . recognizing that reality tv is the wave of the present and future so they themselves have added a reality based wrestling show right in the middle of a wrestling broadcast its very neat! its called next where they take eight amatuer wrestlers give them mentors veteran wrestlers. They take these young wrestlers under there wing teach them the ropes of the wwe and they wrestle each other till one emerges as the best and earns a wwe contract . The whole idea of it is that we get to almost watch these wrestlers grow into there potential , Then we have no choice but to accept him into the world of wrestling from watching him claw his way into stardom.






The biggest reason it relates is the fact that wrestling is related to communicaton is the fact that its on television. Tv production is the reason we see the ads on tv someone has to put them up . There has to be someone holding a camera . We need someone directing the event how would they know to cut to commercial how would they know to come back . How would we know when to Cue a certain wrestlers theme music? This is all played in part by a televison production person . The whole world cant fit into the arena to see the live show . This is why we have a production crew so that the wwe or tna whoever it is can reach there majority audience and it is through the television . The bigger your audience gets the more people you need to help reach those people so it is an continous effort of everyone working together to communicate to the world .
