Honest Question to Pro-Wrestling fans: WHY?

I am not trying to put anyone down; I'm just trying to understand. My co-worker always has various matches on.
I can appreciate:
The obvious athleticism required to pull off even a fraction of the jumps and lands, etc. Respect, big time. Big time.
The beautiful women, who are also in amazing shape.
The amount of planning and pyro that goes into entrances. Heck, the whole production.
And Seth Freakin' Rollins.

The rest leaves me scratching my head. Telegraphed punches that end a clear mile away from the intended target. More folding chairs thrown than Bobby Knight. I'm not seeing the real meat of the performance. Obviously, people dig it big time, so what am I missing?
