I've always just viewed it as "fake" any never could get into it.

Do you like any shows on television? Heroes? Dexter? House? Lost?

Guess what? They're fake too.

Right now the product is crap, mainly because the writing is poor. If you want to get into anything WWE, I'd suggest watching "ECW" on Sci Fi on Tuesdays. it's only an hour so it won't overload you, and it's mainly just wrestling, with not too much ga-ga. Plus, those are the younger guys who aren't established yet, so if you do get into it, you can watch them grow, which was one of the best parts about watching in the 90s. Watching all the new young guys come in and progress through the ranks. Go at it with an open mind and you might enjoy yourself.

I don't know if I've ever not liked it but I can tell you I've definetly went through some extended streaks without watching it.

Sometimes it just becomes to predictable and the storylines have just sucked.

Like TNA right now. A ton of talent on their roster and they start a soap opera like Main Event Mafia of old washed up vets who just need a place to fit in.

WWE is starting to interest me again because they've changed some things up. Like finally putting Jeff Hardy over. I mean how many times can he wrestle for the title and lose before we start to grow disinterested in the scenario?

Plus I dig Santino. He's a funny fucker who always makes me chuckle a little with his half assed accent and stupid twisting names gig. To bad he can't wrestle to save his life.

The whole Michaels thing though is disheartening. To see one of the greatest pro wrestlers ever reduced to a servant for JBL of all people. C'mon man. I wanted so bad to see The Game come out last night and smackdown JBL and lift up Michaels and tell him he'd help him out. I really don't know where they are going with this.

Anyway take it for what it's worth. A bunch of athletes in great shape performing and taking huge bumps just to please the fans. Fake or not these guys are animals who take a beating everyday of the week and I respect them for that.

How do you think it feels to do a Swanton Bomb from the top of the cage? Or get Batista bombed? Or chokeslammed by the Big Show?

I used to love it; but Scorcho pretty well sums it up. Nowadays it seems to be complete garbage. I mostly watch it for the womens matches; sometimes those chicks show a little more skin than they planned on. Writing currently sux; and I think mma kind of ruined it for me a bit too. When some tool like CM Punk comes into the ring and they talk about his muay thai and bjj training it really kills me. Prowrestling is a tough pill to swallow these days; kind of like watching the quest after you just watched a K-1 event.

Take that back you S.O.B. :mad:

[Cactaoki45]

i rarely watch it now. The mid and late 90's were awesome. Now idk, just doesnt appeal to me

[War Munchies!]

I haven't been into it in a while.

I watch Raw occasionally but it kinda sucks now. ECW isn't that good either. I had high hopes for TNA but it hasn't turned out to be anything special.

If you're tryna get into wrestling though, you should search Ring Of Honor on YouTube.

It is crap right now and has been since WCW lost the ratings war. It has gone downhill since then to what it is now, complete garbage.

TNA is embarrassing to watch, its so bad sometimes. Even my 7 year old changes the channel, and if thats not telling you something...

Nope Lines, I was a fan of Pro Wrestling from the first time I saw it!

I will say however that its hard to be a wrestling fan with the crappy storylines and crappy in ring abilities shown by some of the wrestlers.

Id happily go back to the 80s wrestling as even with corny gimicks, the guys still had to have ability and know the craft. Today its just bad preformances after bad preformances and blown spots.
