fukk YOU, CNN!!! THEY AIN'T GONNA FIND THAT PLANE!!! SHOW MY nikka SOME LOVE :damn:

For me, when it comes to these wrestler deaths, shyt never seems really REAL to me until I see it reported in the news. Reading about it on internet forums and news articles is one thing, but to actually see reporters speak on it like it's one of the major events of the day....

I believe I said something similar to this before when Macho passed, but I'll say it again anyway: there's just something about seeing WWE/wrestling/pro wrestlers being acknowledged in mainstream media, that seems surreal sometimes as a fan. We watch this wrestling shyt in our own little wrestling 'bubble', and outside of that bubble, the rest of the world usually ignores it/dismisses it as silly entertainment for rednecks, or something that's gay, or something that's for kids, or whatever negative shyt they attach to it just because they're not a fan

So to see something as mainstream as CNN talking about Eddie Guerrero and Macho Man after their deaths, just has you like ":wow: Damn......they're really THAT important.....this wrestling thing is really THAT important.....important enough to get that kind of TV news coverage....."

Even Benoit's death had me feeling that way (despite the circumstances). Seeing Steve Blackman and Marc Mero butt heads on Headline News......seeing Cena, Bret and Jericho on Larry King.....

I gotta go back into my retirement. Like Swiggy said, them news stations better show Warrior some love later on today; I'll be looking out for it. All y'all keep your heads up......
