I often ask myself “why do I watch wrestling?” “Why do I declare myself as a fan of something that’s clumsy on the surface and is ridiculous to look at times?” “Why the spandex fighters?” “Why the ‘fake stuff’?”
Because when it’s done right? It makes for some of the most compelling television you could ever watch. You can’t find most of this stuff anywhere else when it’s done right. No matter what promotion you watch, you buy merch for or even see clips of on your feed, there’s a reason why people love it no matter what the abusive relationship it brings. Because of moments like from the last two days. Because of moments from the last few weeks of TV. Because of moments and matches from the last few years post pandemic. Because of moments that will stand the test of time from decades before most people that see this were even conceived. I love wrestling for the stories it tells. The moments it has. The spectacle it can bring. The matches it can make. And you likely love it different reasons or the reasons listed. It’s a neverending story. It’s exhausting at times but it’s amazing at times. When you think something ends, it doesn’t. As some guy that won a ‘fake belt’ last night said, “when one good story ends, an even better one begins.” That. That is why I’ve kept at it since 2010. That’s why the passion is there.
I’ll often at times get people that follow the page that don’t watch/follow wrestling at all. And that’s fine, hello and welcome aboard if you don’t follow it and think it’s stupid. You’ll probably find at least something you like here if it isn’t me covering weird sweaty people in outfits and spitting out opinions. The stories that I post may be something you like outside of the “me watch the shows” posts.
You’re welcome here and maybe I could make you a fan of this crazy not really a sport even if the fanbase is nightmarishly toxic.
I understand that Miss Stephanie is an import but after a performance of this magnitude that even the FD crowd (most of them are being introduced to her for the first time here) turned in her favor? I’d throw a lot of money at her.
Yet I say this, and many get lost in the shuffle there and I wouldn’t want her to suffer the same fate.
Obvious end result aside, a fun car crash Ladder match was had.
I am once again asking for Takesoup to breakout because dude does all this cool shit and is still stuck in the Don Callis spiderweb.
