Is the appeal of still watching the WWE is that it's so bad, that it's good?

When I found out it wasn't real I felt lied to and betrayed.

I didn't know where reality ended and fantasy started.

We're Kane and Undertaker really brothers?
Step and H really married?
The Dudley Bros really brothers?

Nothing made sense in my world anymore so I had to fall back and watch something I could trust, The Simpsons.

You remember Dr Yankem, the dentist character from the mid 90s? That’s Kane

Dr Yankem a wild name for a dentist

Kane actually a politician now too

He literally wrestled while he was mayor too

Wrestlers started losing their charisma around 2010

I been watching some late 90s, early 2000s events on peacock... some of them matches are

I wasn’t aware peacock had the at. Bout to go eat during work hours. Ain’t shyt gettingdone

Coli nigguhs who mostly jack off to porn and spend their waking moments trolling on this website have the audacity to look down on wrestling fans.

i fail to see the connection, wrestling doesn't have the charisma and pizazz it used to be, but that with everything, even porn aint what it used to be, used to be standards on the casting couch, now any chick that can afford a camera a porn star and giving us shytty angles

It’s funny how the narrative is if you’re a WWE or wrestling fan in general that you’re a lame, loser, gay or a nerd.

When in reality, wrestling appeals to a wide range of people. WWE is hotter than fish grease right now and is having its biggest year ever of its existence that includes the attitude era that’s held in high regard.

Monday Night Raw in 1998 was averaging 6.3M viewers per show
Monday Night Raw in 2024 is averaging 903k viewers.

And nobody outside of Reddit forums can name 1 WWF star

Play fighting in 2024 is an embarrassment, whoever is still watching it are the same people going to the comic con and watch anime porn

These mfs live in a bubble. Ain't nobody watching that shyt like that anymore outside their hardcore fans.

Most Americans 50 and under are probably aware of Stone Cold, Rock, Kane, Vince, Undertaker, Mankind, HHH, Kurt Angle, Chyna from the Attitude era since it was mainstream as fukk for a couple of years. While I can't mention a single wrestler from this generation that's apparently the "hottest it's ever been"

 

[Gotright]

nikka watching Westling in 2024

 

[Killer Instinct]

I don't watch anymore but WWE is in a better spot financially than they've been since maybe the Attitude Era, iirc. Somebody is definitely watching.
