A "legit" match is not necessarily the same thing as a shoot. Espeically in the past, there have been actual pro wrestling matches which were not totally scripted and which were, one degree or another, "legitimate". A "shoot" implies blowing off the storyline and "going into business for yourself", or, really messing it up by not selling it or other ways such as getting really injured and unable to follow it.

Why is there no mention of perhaps the most notorious shoot outside of the Montreal Screwjob: Bruiser Brody v. Lex Luger. If anything, that's far more of a shoot.
There have been more and more recent worked shoots in the WWE recently. On RAW ast week, Mr. Kennedy brought out a fake Marty Jennety, Razor Ramon, and Diesel to talk about Shawn Michaels. When the Razor Ramon guy came out, Mr. Kennedy quickly said to him "Thanks for showing up by the way," an obvious reference to Scott Hall's no show at TNA Turning Point the night before. And Triple H is constantly making obvious referneces to his marriage to Stephanie McMahon including saying he would take out his father-in-law for a shot at the title and and telling Stephanie he would "see her at home...opps, I mean your brother's a gnome." —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.110.211.161 ( talk) 01:18, 11 December 2007 (UTC)
There's no point in having this article and Shoot (professional wrestling), when this entire article would fit nicely into a small subsection in Shoot (professional wrestling). This would be like having an article for professional wrestling and another for professional wrestler. ♥ Nici♥ Vampire♥ Heart♥ 15:21, 20 November 2008 (UTC)

Merge, there is no point in separate articles, especially when neither is very long. Nikki♥ 311 22:48, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

The article's section "Examples of worked shoots" lists various events that have nothing to do with shoots or worked shoots but are simply examples of a kayfabe storyline. It is especially questionable whether the term makes sense before the rise of "shoots" to prominence.
If those qualify as "worked shoot", the term becomes meaningless and things like Hogan losing the title to Andre etc. would qualify too.
