Well I think for sportslike presentation you are imagining like dry characters and interviews we get with say professional football.

The actual genius of the sportslike presentation is that you do still get characters to emerge. Things they care about and are. You still get your Connor McGregors and Jon Joneses and since the whole thing is fixed you can control and develop such conflicts over time such that when you do choose to go soap opera you're going there with a fleshed out character and you're going to resolve it in the ring because that makes sense.

The reverse is when youre so storybased that the question "why is this resolving in a wrestling match" doesnt really have an answer. Why hasn't Seth Rollins just showed up on raw with an Uzzi to end The Fiend once and for all? Almost nothing about their feud has a single god damn thing to do with Wrestling. And the Fiend is clearly a monster and probably a child predator so he'd be somewhat justified in his actions.
