- Got really tired of watching high entertaining matchs, no more Danyel Bryans, Randy Ortons or Dolph Ziggler for me.
Gonna start watching bad annoying movies that people say are artistics, and get nominated to the oscar by a bunch of old dumb, senile son of a byatchs.

It's april fools. :mrgreen:

Lmao nice one Edge! An old friend of mine from when we were kids and watched wrestling recently told me that he watched the Undertaker vs Lesnar and it was a great match, so I think Im going to try to get back into it, starting with wrestlemania 30, which I am downloading now.

I just don't get it fellas. I got my face stomped by three guys a couple of days ago. I just don't get it. Please post some good matches.

- Undetaker vs Triple H was a master-piece, people bash Triple H( I don't get why, i love the guy), but Triple H is one of the best pro-wrestlers to ever live, he can go any type of match with any-body, Undertaker vs Shawn Michaels 1 and 2 at wrestlemania and Taker vs Edge were amazing matchs of taker.

Try starting with wrestlemania 23

Tiger balm? Is that a wrestler?

:)

I understand the appeal of wrestling but just can't quite tap into it to the point of any pleasure or enjoyment. Its a good show, lots of funny characters, clever scripting, amazing stunts, crowd participation... etc etc. Its a marvelous show.

Its just like I said I can't suspend that veil of disbelief or whatever they call it. When I was learning to write screenplays they talk about this, how the goal is to trick the viewer's mind into willingly pretending for 2 hours that the movie is real. The moment you write/act/show something that reminds the audience that it is a movie, you break that trance and the illusion is ruined.

I think to enjoy wrestling you need to suspend your disbelief and allow your imagination to go along for the ride. Cheer for the hero/boo the villain etc and revel in the spectacle.

Personally there are just too many things that bug enough to not let me do this.

I did however watch the legendary Undertaker/Mankind cage match live on PPV and it kind of fucked me up lol That shit was insane

Its a combination of this and understanding that youre not supposed to take it seriously, so you can laugh at all the over the top ridiculousness.

Edge I also love Triple H. Him and HBK as DX was a true high point of wrestling. Every monday night RAW was absolutely hilarious. I couldnt wait for mondays to come during 2006. I attended Unforgiven in Toronto and the show was amazing. The Vince McMahon character was always so hilarious, and reinforced with legitimacy by the fact that in real life the guy could really fuck up your career if he wanted to(like he did to Bret Hart in the Montreal screwjob).

- This, It's a over the top show based on athleticism and characters.
The referee is in front of a giant screen and never sees the guys cheat to win, there's is a giant stadium and whem a wrestler is talking there's always a camera to film him, and the security rarely find's the guy.

You get guys that hate each other, but they only solve their problemns in front of camera.

- Me too.
The thing is the man loves pro-wrestling just like us, he is a genius in the ring and on the mic, can play any character and wrestle with any one.
Shawn Michaels is a monster performer.
