Being a Wrestling Fan Today

I started watching wrestling back in 1984 when I was just 3 years old. Something about the way the sport was presented caught my intrest and has every since. Today at 27 I feel like that old guy in the park telling the local children stories about how things where better in my day.

    I can sit at home and watch WWE 24/7 for hours and relive the classic moments that made me a fan, or I can pop in a DVD of some great classic wrestling and be taken back to a time when where Hulk Hogan was the biggest thing since sliced bread and Randy Savage was the biggest heel this side of Ric Flair. I miss those days sometimes.

    I watch wrestling today and wonder what happened? When did wrestling become a drama with some action insteed of a action with some drama? Why do I care about guys fighting over shampoo (WrestleMania 18)? I guess it would have to be during the Monday Night Wars when this change happened, I just didn't notice.

    Now this isn't to say I don't like wrestling today, I do. I love CM Punk, HBK, Chirs Jericho, HHH, The Undertaker, Kane, and countless others, I just wish when I watched I wouldn't end up thinking "What does this have to do with wrestling?"
