I still watch it. I know, there are times the outcomes are predictable. But still is entertaining.
 
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>In case you didn't know Punk and Teddy Hart patched things up awhile back. Teddy's still a little nuts though.</div>Didn't know that, that's surprizing considering their past meetings. But Teddy will have to do a lot before I even respect him as a wrestler. He's like TO, young and brass. Talented but I don't know if he'll ever get it. It's a shame that he tries to use that Hart name to get places, he hasn't earned it.
 
I'm very late in this discussion so..yep.Anyway, I watched wrestling from 1996 until December 2003 (or March 2004..somewhere through then) because I got so bored of it, and was getting angry at all the reptitiveness, etc. and lost interest. I started watching it again in June 2006 when DX came back, and it's been meh....I still dislike it heavily but for some reason I can't change the channel. However, I haven't watched it in two or three weeks due to some hardcore sporting events going on (Bowl games, National Championship, etc.)
 
To imput of this Teddy Hart thing. It seems possible we might see the 3rd Generation Hart's form a stable in the WWE. Teddy, Harry, and Naddie. I personally dont like the approach. Mainly cause Teddy. Great tallent. But the respect I have for him is low. I was just hoping for a solo push with Harry

That stable would be awesome, although they might need a manager to cut promos. I've never heard any of their interviews before. I doubt Teddy could keep a job in WWE though; he's just too out there.
 
I use to watch it, but I haven't since 2003. It's a disgrace to watch it anymore. It's terrible compared to how it use to be.
 
A guilty pleasure of mine is to watch friday night smackdown occasionally with a couple friends, but that's only once in a while and I otherwise don't really watch it that much.

Teddy's stay in WWE = Juvy's stay in WWE. Shortlived lol.
 
Now I wouldnt mind Stampede Bulldogs since they have a history together wrestling indy, in Stampede Wrestling or w/e. Teddy just doesn't seem to fit with them. Maybe just cause his gimmick. His Jeff Hardy facial hair doesn't really go with the whole "British" deal

Considering the Steiner/Cage was a botch, someone should put up that Triple H pedigree botch or Sid's WCW turnbuckle leap into broken leg botch gifs.

Yes, everything in wrestling is so fake.</div>too bad those flames are made out of cardboard
 
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Justice @ Jan 15 2007, 07:23 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>too bad those flames are made out of cardboard</div>Yeah, if they were real the dude would be on fire.
 
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Yeah, if they were real the dude would be on fire.</div>Lqtm, you took Justice serious?Those are actual real flames, there's a reason they came in afterwards with water and extinguishers. And how may I know this, because I've seen this event. Dudleyz powerbombing Balls onto a flaming table is a image attached to ECW.Here's a vid of Balls/Axl, it's a better view than a small gif.
 
I love to watch wrestling but I don't like Vince and what he's done to the WWE. It's turned into horsecrap.
 
Why the hell do all the wrestlers have such gay names? I mean, KFed? What kind of piece of sh*t makes their name KFed?
 
Not for the weak of heart, but realistic believe it or not. <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>During the match, Eudy consequently suffered a leg fracture when it snapped following his leap from the middle turnbuckle in an attempted Big Boot.The fracture, caught on video, was deemed too graphic by many TV stations.[3]Eudy broke his left leg in half, snapping both the tibia and fibula in his leg with at least one of the bones breaking through the skin.</div>But anyway, for those people who just say "Wrestling is fake, storylines are fake, the pain and physical contact they make is fake" is just ignorant. These wrestlers are trained to take beatings like that and imagine guys like Ric Flair who's like over 60 who still has the stamina to withstand a match and physical contact. You can say how much the storylines and outcome of the matches is fake, and I won't deny it because we all know it is fake. But it's another thing to ignorantly say how the beating they take is fake.Other than boxing, and real life wrestling like UFC, entertainment wrestling has to be the most body demanded sport out there. Then you add gimmick matches like Inferno match, hell in the cell, elimination chamber. It's not fake.

Yeah, that's fake.

, so is the dislocated jaw, dislocated shoulder, brusied kidney, 2 broken ribs, 1 and half missing teeth, a concussion and 14 stitches under his lip.It took Mick Foley 2 months to recover and it definitely shorten his active wrestling career.But I'm sure that's all fake to you guys.
 
That Sid vid is probably one of the nastiest injuries I've seen. Just look at his leg. Imagine if his boot was off.
 
Well, to be serious, I think there is a lot of validity to people calling it fake. Yeah, people get hit with stuff and get injuries. Wow, big deal. I'm pretty sure that there are more injuries in football even per capita. Obviously it isn't ENTIRELY fake, but that doesn't make it entirely real. The stuff they do today, in the WWE at least, is pretty weak compared to like 10 years ago. Everything is highly prepared, rehearsed, etc. If it wasn't, they would get injured a lot more, obviously. It's all getting pussified. They are working so hard to prolong careers that the shows have become much more fake. For every bruise and broken bone, there are about 1000 fake punches, flops, whips, and pins.

Kind of hard trying injure somebody's quad with literally fake punches, flops, whips and pins, right?
 
I remember in 5th grade, all my friends were into it, I never was tho. I've always sed it was fake and all that.

Wrestlers wrestle pretty much every week of the year plus PPV's unless they get time off or whatever. Football players, on the other hand, play 20 weeks out of the year MAX. It certainly isn't random, but it is what I think. If everything were real, which you know it isn't, then wrestlers would get a ton more injuries.Yeah, okay, they had an inferno match. Why wasn't a TLC match? I'll tell you why, because it is much, much easier to control flames than it is to control people flying off ladders and through tables, etc. There is a much higher risk of injury in those, which is why they rarely do them. And when they do, it's not like it used to be.I know you're trying to be sarcastic, but no, not really. I would say that quite a few of the injuries are just botched moves. Stone Cold ring a bell? I didn't say it wasn't dangerous at times, but they make a big effort to make it as safe as they can. Back in the day, they did stuff like that Mankind fall off the cage. Now they do not. I really can't see how it's possible for anyone to think otherwise.
