I used to be such a big wrestling fan back in the day(seriously though, who the hell wasn't?) and I just find it hard to get into WWE's product these days. I still don't know who half the roster is besides the main guys like Cena, Orton and The Miz. I do recognize some guys from the indy circuit like CM Punk and Bryan Danielson who seem to have pretty much fallen into the "we don't know what to do with them" pool of wrestlers that are just there. It's such a shame to cause if you know those guys, they can easily put on 5 star matches any night.
I haven't watched Smackdwon in years but do know that Kane, Taker and Mysterio are there. And when I look back at it, it's funny to me that these guys are still going at it. I mean hell, I grew up watching those guys entertain us fans for years and I just think it's amazing that they are still doing what they are doing. Shit, I remember watching Rey Mysterio Jr when he was just 19 years old in the AAA(Mexican wrestling) and then going from there, to ECW to WCW and now the former World Champ at WWE.
Then again, guys like HHH, Mysterio, Taker and the others that are still around are pretty much the ones who have no demons in their lives. Reaosn I say that is because it's sad to me that guys like Scott Hall and Lex Luger are pretty much done in so many ways. I recently read about some of the stuff Hall has been through in his life and it's just so sad. And let's not get started on Luger.
But anyway, with the current wrestling business, I try to catch whatever I can of it. It's not the best but when I do watch it I sorta feel like a kid again but we know nothing will ever match those great years when wrestling was the thing to watch on TV.
I've watched some of TNA and I just feel like the writing, if it were to improve, could easily make TNA the wrestling show to watch. Like I said though, the writing and the storylines are too boring and it seems like there are too many heel turns.
