Bret Hart the only one from that era who i don't find extremely distasteful as a person.


even he takes wrestling too serious though and always bitter. he'd probably be annoying to hang out with after 20 minutes before he start talking about how much better he was in the ring than shawn michaels or ric flair.

The Truth


Notice how tried to whiten up Booker T with flour :troll:

Nah that was just comedy...


But surprisingly, Stone Cold is one of the few wrestlers I know not on that racist shyt.

In fact, It was HBK i was more disgusted at. For as much racism The Rock experienced in the WWF (I refuse to call it WWE), he is usually quiet on these racial topics.

Not that I expect him to be vocal, most his fanbase are white people in love with his looks and his Samoan background thinking its “exotic” (and most Samoans hate white people).

Grown ass black men who follow wrestling are weird to me. This gies for my 32 year old brother and my 55 year old father, they ain't excluded...
Wrestling outdid major sports events in the 90s on a weekly basis. Most of those kids who watched wrestling during that era are 30-40yrs old now. Are nikkas supposed to just forget the years they watched and talked with their friends about? Most the shyt people watch is weird. Wrestling ain’t no different was far more popular than most the other shyt.

That’s the childhood of a lot of kids. So many of those wrestlers never fully go away. The saying is that wrestling is like a soap opera for grown men, well look at the remaining soap operas that still exist and see how they’re 50-60 years deep. It’s built off the same loyalty, only with wrestling it’s easier to get your kids into it and it keeps that fanbase going.

Nah I get it, I was a fan as a kid. HBK was my favorite wrestler and i got a chance to meet Doink at some point in the late 90s and was hella excited by it, but I grew out of it by the time I was 12-13...

The brothers in high school who still followed wrestling were all these weirdo emos, nobody fukked with them lol...

As adults, I do see nostalgia as a reason some brothers still flow, which is relatable to why I still listen to TI or Michael Jackson. They were integral parts of your adolescence, I get it. But other brothers (my older brother) appear socially awkward, and then when I learned the blatant racism of WWE that continued well into the 00s, and being able now to look back on moments from my childhood and seeing black wrestlers basically portrayed as live, breathing picanninies, see all the overt racist themes, fellas I can't knowingly support that bullshyt...

As someone who avidly watches Dark Side of the Ring and all the fukk shyt that has come to light about the industry, it has definitely changed how a lot of us view wrestling. On a slow night I’ll tune in and I try to at least keep up with it to some extent because there are some real talented workers there, but it’s not the way it was when I was a kid.
