I've been a wrestling fan since I was 5 years old... At least I think I am. I stopped watching a couple of years ago. I still like wrestling in theory but every modern show I've seen has been mostly boring and full of guys who seem to have no idea what they are doing.

I come on here and other places and 80+% of what wrestling fans seem to talk about is how much it sucks or behind the scenes drama.

A topic/tweet about the most recent big match will get 7 replies
A topic/tweet about Alexa Bliss wearing odd socks to Jey Uso's birthday party will get 179.

So it got me thinking. Do you still enjoy this stuff?

Watched it randomly from like 1980 to about 2003.

I don't pay much attention to it anymore but will still follow fleeting news.

I'm now like... who the hell are these people?

Other, I used to love it, but it got dumb and I never really returned to the fandom.

I also started watching when I was around 5 but finally gave up on it completely in 2014. I can't argue that it's not fun, because there are clearly people who still enjoy it. But it's not fun for me, and I can't imagine anything could ever get me to start watching again.

I used to love wrestling

then ufc started getting big and I was like oh wrestling is absolutely so stupid and embarrassing

I still like certain nostalgic things about it, like the rock and rvd and Paul London, but it really doesnt do anything but make me facepalm now

I watched it back when it was good. I find the much of the modern product to be rather boring.

I'll watch Smackdown if nothing else is on.
Otherwise, I'm too stingy for cable.

Used to love it and spent every Monday night flipping back and forth between WCW and WWF. Now it seems like they slap you in the face with how fake everything is so I can't suspend my disbelief anymore. It's like everyone decided to go in a more silly direction. In ring stuff also looks overly choreographed and looks more like a Cirque du Soleil routines than supposed fighting. Most wrestlers today don't have that special something that made them come off believable and badass neither. I still don't hate watch any of it nor spend all the time complaining about it like certain fans do though.

I still like to watch old stuff from time to time. Parts of it don't hold up well, but when it was good, it was awesome. I like watching more stuff from the 70s/80s territory days.

When I was younger I loved it, and watched it all the time. The most recent new wrestling I've watched was Mania 30, and I turned it off after the Taker/Lesnar match. Got no interest in it since that match.

Well some of those guys were legit tough guys or legit crazy.

Back in the late 70s to the mid 80s those guys would raise some hell after shows and get kicked out of my home town all the time.

And civilians and police knew it was coming.

Some people would go to the Silver Spur just to see if any fights break out or some crazy shit go down.

I never got the appeal but I do love video game wrestlers like the Kings in Tekken and that wrestling arcade in the 90's (the one with the clown)
