WWE.

I never understood it as a child whereas my friends loved it. They spent hours watching it, they bought the action figures and all the various different games.

I just flicked onto it again and i still don't understand it.

Is it simply a 'soap opera' style show with pretend fighting? I am well aware it was scripted (and i told my friends this when i was 11/12 but none of them believed me surprisingly enough! ) but i just don't see how anyone could enjoy it. It also looks quite homo-erotic...lots of toned topless men strutting around in tight coloured trunks.

I do appreciate the skills/talent that the actors have in doing what they do but apart from that i'm stumped.

Anyone a fan here and want to shed some light on the subject?

So what sort of stories are there in WWE? Genuine question!

 

[SideWinder]

The stories are not all centered around wrestling, the stories can be about anything.
It all ends up with a fight though

How many stories can a medical program have? They all get covered after a short time and ALL normal soaps show the same sort of stories as each other. Doesn't stop people watching them though

Oh, I never said you weren't allowed an opinion, I was just asking what you watch

Can you give an example?

I mean, there isn't a "set" like soaps have. There isn't a local pub, local shop, local bar that changes ownership every 20 episodes is there?

Well they have backstage areas and the woman get involved too and they fight over the women and if one guy goes a bit potty then they have a fight then a feud but that **** is not important....


Your post count is insane, are you the highest? Never seen you on forums before XD

I won my posts in a charity auction. I really have around 20k.

Backstage? Okay that gives it a bit more scope...i'll have to start watching or read some of the plots. It just seems so restrictive...only so many plots they could do surely!

You lost me at heel and face

Just googled this term...it's the 'fan's favourite' vs 'the immoral/rule breaking' bloke.
