Fox Sports Host Rob Parker Doesn’t Understand How Grown Men Are Into Wrestling

Fox Sports host Rob Parker went on his show, The Odd Couple, and questioned how grown men like wrestling.

Parker was discussing ESPN’s coverage of WrestleMania, saying, “I’m just shocked to see ESPN….I know McAfee was involved and Stephen A. It was a big ordeal. I saw stuff online where people were ripping it that it wasn’t good. A lot of commercials. Four hours and they only wrestled for an hour and a half. 

“I can’t understand how grown men are still into wrestling. I can’t. We all went to the zoo. We all went to the circus as kids, right? At some point, you grow out of it. I just can’t get over how older guys who are sports fans, who watch the NFL, baseball, the NBA, and live and die for that stuff, but they have this soft spot for wrestling, and they’re walking around with the belts, and they’re going to a watch party at a sports bar. I need somebody to explain it to me, because I don’t understand it.”

Parker previously worked at ESPN.
