For me at least it was never really about caring about anyone’s opinion, it was more so the community itself. That’s really the foundation of being a fan. The conversation after the game and between games (for sports) the speculation on player movement and shyt, that’s the real fun that fuels everything. With wrestling that part stopped being that for me. Choppin it up about wrestling feels like pulling teeth these days. shyts a battle. Once being a fan of something feels like a battle, it’s time for me to get out.
I’ll always have an appreciation for it because I grew up with it, but I outgrew wanting to actively participate in being a fan. I stopped watching, blocked and unfollowed anything affiliated with the sport. Muted the word wrestling itself. I got out lol
I hear you but that’s an oversimplification of what I’m saying lol. I legit want no association with anything when the fanbase is that
Wrestling fanbase in 2025 is like.. it’s like a club where nobody wants to be because they all hate it there, but for some reason they can’t stop going continuously. You’re greeted at the door with people screaming at you about why you shouldn’t be here, and if you’re like “I kinda like the drinks” they’re gonna be like NAH.. at some point you kinda have to just stop going. Maybe you outgrew that club. I outgrew the club. This tv show ain’t for me anymore. Focused on other shyt I like lol
