If scoring is the determination for wrestling's entertainment value, that shows a knowledge deficit among those complaining.  Fans and journalists acknowledge the value of good defense in football, basketball, hockey, and soccer, so why should wrestling be held to a different standard in that regard? 
None are so hopelessly enslaved, as those who falsely believe they are free. The truth has been kept from the depth of their minds by masters who rule them with lies. -Johann Von Goethe

Some days it's hardly worth chewing through the restraints!
