As I always say, FIRST is to olympic wrestling as Battlebots is to the WWE. I enjoy FIRST and olympic wrestling for the professionalist qualities, and Battlebots (which I haven't watched in ages as of me writing this) and WWE for the entertainment values. Then, there's Kurt Angle and Mr. B. who throw things off a bit in this anologious enigma. All these factors make a robot nerd's life all the more interesting.
