Am I the only lamer here that likes wrestling? I've been watching it since I was 4, and I never miss a Raw or Smackdown. Bret Hart is a god and I'm sure he could kick any of your asses. Should I be made fun of? I always thought it was be great to have Come to Daddy as your entrance music. |

Though I've fallen off over the past year, I am a life long fan. It's nothing to be ashamed of - it's mindlessly delicious!! Look at it this way, Bob Mould of Husker Du fame was writing storylines for WCW for a few years just before they were bought out. If it's good enough for Bob Mould, it's good enough for me!! |

wrestling is comprised of loud shaved gorillas wearing thongs and mullets. but that's just my perspective. support whatever pleases you. |

I got to shake hands with Bret Hart a few years back, when the WWF was on tour in the UK - thats one of my claim to fames! I used to watch it, but as of recent there's too much side chatting and not enough action...I haven't really watched it properly for two years now... |

Bret is God... but I already said that in my first post. He actually had a STROKE, and his family members are dying left and right, sometimes literally IN THE RING... the Harts are cursed. I actually stopped watching for a couple of years, but I've recently got back into it... right after Hogan came back a little over a year ago. I have immense respect for wrestlers... not only do they put themselves through hell 300 nights a year, but they actually have to play the crowd and put on a SHOW as well as getting their asses kicked... and it's scripted, but not ''fake''. The scripted thing makes it even MORE impressive, sicne they're putting on a pretty involving SHOW. The badguys (heels) in wrestling make a living from MAKING PEOPLE HATE THEM... who else does that? Other than annoying gimmicky comedians? What a great job... Chris Jericho, Chris Benoit, Eddy Guerrero and Kurt Angle are the best in the business right now. |

I couldn't believe it when Owen Hart died....that must've been horrible to of been at that performance.... I used to like it in the days of when Shawn Michaels and Diesel, would torment the likes of Razor Ramone...that was good. Especially I liked it when Shawn Michaels wouldn't fight other when he was Intercontinental Champion, because he thought they were unworthy opponents for the 'heartbreak kid'.....it was at that point that Gorilla Moonsoon had his belt revoked....but Shawn Michaels had another one made...... ....great stuff!! Remember the casket matches with Yokuzuna, when the Undertaker poured petrol over it and burned it!!?!??! Amazing!! |

haha, what I've seen of Kurt Angle makes him the most annoying person ever! |

I used to watch wrestling when I was little. I stopped about 4 years ago when I realized it was kinda rediculous, although I like watching that show tough enough to see those kids get their ass beat trying to get a contract. Ophecks- how do the scripted matches work? Like does it say Jericho wins after 10 min now do your stuff? Im interested. |

They communicate with each other VERY subtley, and have ''spots'' in the matches, things that are planned out indvance... a lot of it is improvised depeding on the situation or what the crowd wants. These guys work hard to get these things right. If you slip up and they do one move when you're expecting another, you could get seriously hurt... they have to communicate with each other. Whether it be whispers or taps or signs, anything... the endings are planned out in advance of course, but if something goes wrong (Steve Austin broke his neck in a match and they had to end it differently than planned... breaking your neck tends to change things), they have alternate endings. |

Damn right, Kurt Angle is HILARIOUS and clever (watch his promos, the guy is a riot and knows how to get a crowd into it) and an amazing athlete. This guy can do it all. Oh it's true, it's true! |

Apearently she did go to court but decided to sue the latch company rather than the harness company. The latch company told the press she's just going after the biggest bank. The judge approved the case. She's asking for; or was awarded 12 mill. I dont remember wich one. |

The movie "Beyond the Mat" was great stuff!!! Every wrestling fan should see it. The focus is on Mick Foley, Terry Funk and Jake Roberts. It paints a pretty bleak picture of the kind of life these guys lead. Foley beating the hell out of his body and loving it - Funk still coming back to the ring in his fifties for more abuse - and Jake the Snake, the one time superstar, who now wrestles at county fairs, smokes crack, and has a daughter who seems to hate him. Great stuff. |

I like wrestling, it's funny. I liked all school with Jack The Snake, Macho Man, The Undertaker (my fav), Ultimate Warrior, Herculez Hernandez, Greg "the hammer" Valentine, Dynamite Kid, Honky Tonky Man... And what about japanese wrestling of 80's ? Someone remember Antonio Inoki, Tiger Mask, Tatsumi Fujinami, etc...? Maybe Far-east monkey know. |

Jerry Lawler is a funny commentator...he was fun to what in the ring as well. Does anyone remember when he used to take the piss out of the 'Stinking Hart' family, as he put it? He'd ridicule Bret Harts mother and father at ring side....hehhee. Or the time when he'd come to ringside with his arm in a fake plaster cast!! |

I use to watch wrestling and I'll get back into it if and when they start to get some good writing/scripts in the show. For me, it was really exciting when Mick Foley was in there taking terrible beatings, Undertaker was still in the grimmer side (of course he had to change cause he's been playing that role for a long time). When there was no "What!" chanting for Stone Cold. I haven't been keeping up with WWF err...WWE so if the writing has been getting better..lemme know. |

I don't mind wrestling myself, find it quiet amusing :) I went thru a WWF phase myself. There was something called EWA Wrestling in my home town last week which I was able to catch. It was cool, this was all held in this shitty night club venue (old church) and in the 'Hardcore' match, they went mental all around the venue! :D There was a wrestler named 'Jesus' in that hardcore match, he kicked arse! |
