Is anyone watching wrestling anymore?

[SPfloppy]

Same question as the thread title.

[missingnumber7]

Nope

[Crushaholic]

Yes...why?

[Northman]

Nope. Its not nearly as good as it used to be.

[ksBRONCOfan]

Nope. Haven't for quite a few years. I did go see Raw live in Topeka a few years back and that was totally kick ass. I would go back and do that again.

The original DX was officially named right here in Topeka way back in 1996 or 1997...consisting of Rick Rude, HHH, Shawn Michaels and Chyna. I like to say that's Topeka's big "claim to fame"...;D

Anyone who watches rasslin should have their evolution license pulled.

[Smiling Assassin27]

Anyone who deems themselves capable of commenting on another's evolution license should have their evolution license pulled.

Fixed it for you. ;D

[TailgateNut]

Watching a bunch a steriod laded neantherthals faking injury is off the evolutionary chart.

Any questions?

Then why did they pull yours? :)

Ah ok this one got lively while I was away. What I wanted to get to was how different it is these days. Anything the WWE puts on these days is truely just a unique form of entertainment. They now have special guest hosts for thier monday show like saturday night live. Meanwhile TNA actually displays more traditional wrestling programing but with more of the late 90's early 2000's story telling to compliment the matches.

MMA has killed boxing and made traditional pro wrestling a second class citizen in it's own demographic. TNA co-promotes with MMA and because they are on Spike with UFC they get some cross promotion. They now have Bobby Lashley who may end up in UFC if he gets a solid base going and keeps impressing Dana White. It's almost un-recognizable from what we all grew up watching. I do subscribe to WWE's on-demand service but I only watch stuff they show that is older than 1999. Good old Von Erich family rassl'n, NWA and wcw when it was worth a crap. They do have old ECW shows but with what the "new ECW" has become it serves only as a sad spectacle of what might have been
