Wrestling isn't what it used to be..

Wrestling just seemed more entertaining and fun back in the day with Jake the Snake, Texas Tornado, tugboat, Earthquake, Papa Shango, Big Boss Man, Nails, Legion of Doom, Hacksaw Jim Duggan. That was wrestling.

Agreed. Back when the only non-fighting stuff took place with one guy in front of a background telling another guy he was going to kick his ass.

Wrestling just seemed more entertaining and fun back in the early '60's. There wasn't nearly as much fakery and posing as there is nowdays.

Wrestling went downhill after late 98 early 99 in my opinion.

I don't see it getting any better without some competition. NWA TNA or some fed needs to get a Mon, etc... slot on some station.

The WWE also needs to change. They have the talent to put on decent shows, but somehow they always mess it up.

I stopped watching after that McMahon-Hellmesly era, and never looked back.

one thing that will help is shooting HHH at on smackdown or whatever. i bet rateings would be high.

I used to love watching it in the early 90's. Papa Shongo would light someone on fire, the 1-2-3 Kid came in and shook things up, the Undertaker getting resurrected umpteen-billion times...

It was fake and retarded back then, and it is fake and retarded now

Papa Shongo = The Godfather

It definitely isn't where it is anymore. Just too much talk and not enough wrestling.

The last time I enjoyed wrestling guys like, Haystack Calhoun and Gorgeous George
were doing it. Dick Lane was calling the game..

Its goofy, I just catch a bit of it as I surf TV..........

GLOW! OMG! There's a blast from the past!

Yeah, wrestling was more fun back when Hulkamania ran wild, the Macho Man, Ultimate Warrior, Legion Of Doom, Brutus the Barber... just more fun, was a little more light and humorous. When guys would go from good guy to bad guy to good guy all in one episode of Saturday Night Main Event (teh best wrestling show evar!)
