Things you used to mark out for as a kid that you don't anymore

when they brought that mess to Kings table he would say "Hey guys the spanish announce table is over there"

Inspire.
Def Taker. Every time that gong hit I would be like 
Now it's just
"this nikka and his hour long entrances"

Wasn't a kid, but those segments where Stone Cold is arguing with someone and then it's ended by a stunner. Used to have me 
every time. Not so much anymore.
When I was a kid, used to mark out whenever wrestlers got their hands on the manager. Don't mark out for that anymore because... well... no managers.

Since I've become an adult & realized what back pain is, I mark out (and cringe) every time I see something from the very top rope...like superplexes. Some are from 2nd rope but when they're both standing at the top, I go "Oh sh*t..."

Peace and love...to all!!
- Backstage fights. Don't care much for 'em now because I've seen so many by now....not to mention the fact that it never gets really violent anymore, at least in the 'E
- whenever someone pulled out a weapon. Again, the E ruined this because now it's rare that someone will do real damage with a weapon. What good is pulling out a steel chair if you're just hitting someone on the back instead of the dome? Lame
- Whenever the opponent of someone who I rooted for started bleeding. Didn't know about blading back then but now that I do.....meh
- any time a wrestler left one fed and appeared in another.....even jobbers/stooges like Virgil had me when they made a switch between WWF and WCW. Technically I could still mark for this if I just stayed away from internet spoilers....that ain't happenin', though
- any returning wrestler. Again, even jobbers and heels would have me marking out after not seeing them for a while. Nowadays....even Brock and The Dwayne didn't have me hyped. It was cool to see them again and all but......I don't know. Maybe I just don't like the idea of them returning in this PG era
- pretty much any main event, even if I wasn't a fan of either wrestler. Back then, the last match of the show seemed important to me no matter who was in it, unless it was a joke match
- hell, even the beginning of the show with the fireworks and crowd cheering used to have me marking out because I knew some stuff was gonna happen
Man.....watching wrestling back then was just.....different. Just......better.

Promos used to have me hyped, now 90% of wrestlers today can't cut a damn promo to save a life... seriously promos today suck!
