I will answer as to wrestling.
It is one competitor against the other. No teams, no one to blame when things don't work out. Except of course, the officials.
Points (scores) are earned for specific actions, set forth in th rules books. Just as OBR describes what a strike is.
There are rules of play, just like OBR.
Officials can make a difference, just like an ump can squeeze the zone on a pitcher or let it go wide. Or shade the safe/out call on a banger.
Clearly wrestling is a sport. One with a history far longer than baseball. Wrestling has been around, one form or another, for millenia.
