Professional Wrestling (WWE, TNA, etc.) Chat

I'm wondering if there are any other members here who watches pro-wrestling. Before anything else, I know that pro-wrestling is fake but it's entertainment for me, like watching a movie . Let's start discussing pro-wrestling.

[mcozart]

I use to watch it A LOT, i turn it on every now and then, but it just isn't the same

[andycool]

I use to watch it back in the 90s. It isn't the same anymore WWF>WWE

[SherKhan72]

I totally agree. It's more of drama/story and it's the same thing over and over and over again. The old days where just so cool but I still watch 'em.

[Allotes]

I'll catch Raw every now and then, but don't watch as often as I used to. The whole story line thing is just so ridiculous.

[MaxGoof]

I've been watching for around 20 years now, and probably always will. The product isn't great right now so I don't always give it my complete attention, but I still like to follow what's going on.

I hate when anyone ever talks about wrestling being "fake", though. I never made fun of any of my friends for watching LOST even though it was "fake"!

[mmagic1]

Im not going to lie when im in orlando i'll go to a TNA taping at Universal. People watching there is almost more entertainment than the in ring events.

[PhoenixHaven]

I'll always be a huge WWE fan. But i do agree that its really not the same anymore. TNA is alright i guess, but too many WWE leftovers and they need to push their younger stars.

That's because they are running out of ideas. Some of their ideas are basically "recycled". I say, cut the story line short and just wrestle, lol. Make it like, "You beat the crap out of me last time and this time I will beat the crap out of you."

Yeah, lol, I know what you mean. I get that from time to time and I just tell them, "I'm sorry to break your heart but you do know, 'One Life to Live' and 'General Hospital' are fake too.

I love watching those live shows. You really get to see some crazy people acting really crazy, lol, and you won't see that on tv.

I was actually intrigue by TNA before but then they started bringing Hulk Hogan and stuff, just like what WCW did and look where that lead too. Actually, it was more of poor management for WCW that lead them to their downfall.

Part of me likes the Hogan move. It brings interest. Not sure how it bodes for the long term future. I was glad that the Motor City Machine guns had been pushed up the roster.

The rock put on a great promo last night. he would b the reasonfor me to watch on a weekly basis again

Hogan being in TNA and being the "leader" of Immortal isn't a bad idea but I hope they won't turn him "good" and him fighting his own creation. Same old story. I love the Motor City Maching Guns. It's been a while since I've seen such an explosive tag team partners.

WWE did a great job on giving us the surprise of The Rock. I wasn't expecting him at all. I'm sorta confuse in a way, will be be now a regular in WWE again or just for Wrestlemania? But no matter what, I'm really glad he's back.

[AnthonyFromLasVegas]

How is going to TNA @ Universal? I was there a few weeks ago but no tapings were going on, that woulda been kinda cool to go just cause.

[j.skellington]

Same here I watch it but I forward passed it quickly ..not as good as it use to be

[Anders Limpar]

Did the Rock make an appearance b/c he is in that new Fast and Furious movie?

[Disneyclaire]

I LOVE wwe raw, I'm not such a fan of smackdown, I used to watch it in my late teens then got back into it about 3 years ago.
I've been to seen it (I think) 6 times at the O2 in London, missed out on tickets for the upcoming one in London, maybe I will have better luck if it comes back to England around November time???
BE MIZ!!!

[SherKhan72]

I can't wait for the release of The Story of Monday Night Nitro dvd. I really loved the "silent" Sting.

The Rock appeared in WWE Raw because he's the Guest Host at Wrestlemania, plus I think WWE wanted to raise it's raitings and make things interesting. Heck, JBL and Stone Cold showed up last Raw.

[Mr. 9 Inch]

I have been a huge wrestling fan since growing up in the 80's. My favorite era would have to be the Monday Night Wars/ECW era.

I still watch when I can...I am loving the Rock/Cena promos as of late.

[SherKhan72]

I didn't watch TNA's Victory Road but I saw the match of Sting vs. Jeff Hardy and it's so sad to see how messed up Jeff Hardy is. I saw the stumble while he was about to climb the ring and I saw the disappointed look at Sting's face as he stared down Jeff Hardy after beating him in less than 2 min. Sad, really sad. I wish the best of luck to Jeff Hardy and I pray that he can turn his life around.

[booleyb]

I really only watch Raw now and even then it's only because of having the HD channels so I can watch it from 6-8. The whole PG thing has really taken the fun out of it.

My wife will watch portions of it (she thinks Cena and the Rock are good-looking)

[SherKhan72]

I can't wait to watch Raw this Monday because I'd love to hear what the Rock has to say to the Miz after the imitation the Miz did on the Rock, lol.

The miz's impression of the Rock was way funny, not as good as Cena's 1st rap, but worthy of a runner up medal, LOL.

I totally agree. But I still remember back in the good old days when D/X and Nation of Domination would impressonate each other . Now that was a classic.

[Disneyclaire]

Just watching last weeks smackdown, as a rule I'm a Raw girl, but I like to watch it now and again just to keep myself in the loop. (also I'm a secret Alberto Del Rio fan)
Booker T is fairly funny commentating, much better than Matt Striker!!!

Booker T to me has always been funny. I too don't watch to much of SmackDown. I'd watch it if there's a good match or a story line I wanted to follow. I'm sure Undertaker will show up and say something in SmackDown this week since last night Triple H talked about their match in Wrestlemania. Michael Cole is really getting to my nerve . They're doing a treat job on making people really hate him. I sorta like the "upside down" WWE champion belt. I hope the Rock will layeth the smackdown to the Miz next Mon.
