So How Do Grown Men Still Enjoy Wrestling?

[Deflatedhoopdreams]

I'd watch it if the storylines today weren't so lame and stupid. shyt isn't even half way entertaining now a days

Not for you to judge OP. I mean, there are ppl who judge us for posting in forums

My sister and I were HUGE fans. I'm talking watching the sat shows, raw every week, then smack down eventually, ordering ppvs and praying we don't get caught legit hating certain performers The one and only time I cut school was to see a free show where I met a few and JR Honestly, it would have been great to have something like a TSC back then.

I grew out of it. I tried watching a few times...I no longer see the appeal. We all have our hobbies that ppl won't get. Let em cook.

Tried to watch it last week and saw it was 3 fukking hours long

After like 30 min I asked myself how nikkas actually put up with 3 hours of this shyt

This thread gets made like once a month.

It's fun. Who wouldn't want to see incredible athleticism intertwined with some dramatic storyline.

It's like watching a live studio audience soap opera mixed with flippy shyt. Like anything else on TV, it's entertainment.

Plus the backstage fukkery is fun to discuss and dissect.

It always surprises me when people still ask this because whenever wrestling is on TV, it takes over the Twitter trending topics and you end up seeing the most random celebs tweeting about it.

A lot of grown men and women watch wrestling. They're just not discussing it all the time.

Watched loyally from 1991-2003.

Old School WWF?

WCW?

ECW?

I'll still turn in occasionally when my old school favorites like Rock, Stone Cold, etc come through just for nostalgia. I fell off with the rise of Cena though.

Why not just post this on #TSC ?

He aint wanna catch that neg train and end up at Rock Bottom in the red.

 

[GetInTheTruck]

I feel the same way but I watch anime and read manga so I can't really say shyt.

It's hard to explain some things, wrestling is one of those things ether people like or people hate. 90's wrestling is completely different from todays wrestling I got into in 1999 and stopped in 2002 and again in 07 but wrestling was wild in the 90s like much of everything else.

Worrying about what other men do in their spare time

 

[hayesc0]

I stopped watching some time ago but try to keep up and watch some of the big matches and ppvs but if you watch any form of reality tv dont know how you can be mad at people for watching since it is the same exact thing.

Worrying about what other men do in their spare time

This entire forum worries about what other men do in their spare time
The minute I ask about Wrestling yall get salty

 

[YeLovesBoston]

I don't watch it anymore but occasionally I'll check out their YouTube channel to see what's up or even catch an episode of RAW or Smackdown.

Is pro wrestling over the top and even corny? Yeah, but as a boy its the most awesome shyt in the world. The heated rivalries, the intense promos, and the action. .

But then again I still watch cartoons and anime . The child in me never grew up.

If you get it no explanation is needed. If you don't there isn't an explaination that will suffice, it's cliche to say that but it's true.

Come into a RAW thread and just lurk, you don't even have to watch to appreciate the community aspect of TSC

I never got why wrestling fans get "judged" the way we do. Especially the silly criteria that gets used

"Play fighting in underwear"

Boxers have been hugging and whispering sweet nothings in each other's ears while in their underwear until they get separated by the ref since.. well basically forever

Football has 300lb men in basically yoga pants, any form of entertainment can be made to seem silly or fruity if you're looking to do that

As a matter of fact go to an NFL game. Pretty much any team and watch how certain people dress and act during tailgating, pro wrestling fan weird has nothing on NFL fan weird.
