Correction back in your day you were too young to realise wrestling is fixed and it is nothing but one big con.

I remember getting WrestleMania 1 and 2 on vhs for Christmas, you cant explain Clubber Lang fighting with Thunderlips you cant explain that, tide goes in tides goes out.

Sorry but wrestling was huge back in MY day - Hogan, Undertaker, etc.

Hogan is still going strong he has re-joined TNA as the new General Manager, TNA President Dixie Carter and the Hulkster made it official on last week Impact.

I dont understand why you would watch fake fighting when real fighting is available.

I don't understand why people watch war films when there are real wars they can fight in :rolleyes:

.

I always remember watching wrestling with my cousins back in the attitude era and a little bit beyond that (Around 2004-05). The one that stands out to me was Summerslam 2003, we all watched it at my cousins house in his attic at around 1 in the morning till 4, the Elimination Chamber was awesome

Jesus, mr "stand and bang" commenting. :rolleyes:

Maybe we'd like to see some athleticism and enjoy the storyline as opposed to watching fights that can potentially be over in seconds? Seen plenty of mma fights that end up in what appears to be a dry humping contest.

yup

tis like a 90s Shannon Tweed movie on channel 5 vs Sasha Grey in HD

Sure Shannon Tweed was OK as a kid, when staying up late watching Channel 5 was the only option for watching this sort of thing... but not now... if you're going to watch something - no point in watching the censored/fake stuff.

Might want to read the thread, that argument has already been dismissed.

Used to follow Rowdy Roddy Piper and Randy Savage when I was a kid

. Not watched since Stone Cold left.

Might want to not take yourself too seriously. And the argument has hardly been dismissed tbh...

Wrestling sounds a lot like gay porn.

I'm always willing to take an expert at their word.

I still remember the moment Stone Cold won the 2001 Royal Rumble. I haven't watched it since. But I'll watch it tomorrow just to see Cena get a 'People's Elbow' right into his stupid face.

Because war is dangerous and unenjoyable? If you are watching war films to enjoy the violence depicted then you must live a very shallow, uneducated and inexperienced life.

If you want to see athleticism why watch a fake sport?

Don't blame your lack of understanding of fighting on the sport, its just your lack of knowledge with what you are watching.

What an incredibly ironic answer you have given to watching fake Wrestling.

Nope

Highlight so far. The "Funkosaurus" telling everyone to call their mums, only for 20 black girls in grey wigs to come out with fake bums dressed as 1930's grannies and dance to funk music.

Truly the sport of kings. I am converted.

So, you stayed up to 3am and spent £15 to watch Wrestlemania, just to pick out a non serious funny little time wasting section to completely dismiss the full event?

No-one is saying it's the pinnacle of sport or athleticism or whatever, it's a pretty fun bit of entertainment with a few legends of the sport fighting. Who cares if it's fixed, I bet you turned off Wrestlemania and put on any film or TV show. Those are scripted too, so they're garbage. Lighten up, why do you feel the need to be so offended that some people enjoy Wrestlemania? Why are you arguing so much? No one is saying it's real, UFC is better, but why are you getting so worked up? As far as I could see, there was absolutely no UFC on TV tonight, so why not watch Wrestlemania. If it offends you so much I'm going to go out of my way to watch it, just knowing that you will be sitting somewhere raging that people are enjoying something you don't.

Exactly.
I have been checking facebook tonight and half the people are saying why is everyone watching a bunch of gay men pretending to hurt each other while wearing shorts and the other half are saying wrestlemania baby yeah!!!

UFC may be real and the alpha sport and have the hardest and fastest guys beating each other up with lots of skill but to me its boring. A couple of great wrestlers who are in the ring together will listen to the crowed and if the crowed is getting bored then they do something to get them back on the edge of their seats. In UFC they just put each other into holds most of the time until the bell rings yes it may hurt more but it doesnt make it more fun.

People enjoy wrestling wheres the problem?

I am up any way, I tend to live on US Eastern time. I did not spend £15 or what ever it costs to watch it. It's not that I am upset that people enjoy it, its that I am upset that people are so dumb that they enjoy it, these same people vote...

So basically you just don't like dumb people? It's nothing to do with Wrestlemania, just dumb people? :confused:
