Wrestling doesn't draw, the spectacle and storylines are what make it worth watching.

>>1660355
i dont REALLY care about the wrestling unless there's a really good story behind it

Then why are we supposed to be "Wrestling" fans?

In this case, we can call ourselves "Sports entertainment" fans

Ok sure, Vince. The tv product is sports entertainment, what happens between the ropes is predetermined wrestling match or fight. Who cares?

Yes.

Wrestling is pure trash tv.

I don't give a fuck about some Memesaro and Sheamus having a 10/10 match without some gimmicks or story behind it.

the wrestling business is dead. All we can do, is use it as a meme and see it dieing completly in the next 10 years

It's kinda like why atheists still say oh out loud "oh my god"

This.
The greatest matches are great not just because of great wrestling (though it's needed), but because of high stakes or the angle that's led to it.

MitB 2011 is 6/10 without the angle. 10/10 with the angle. I don't think a normal match with no build and nothing at stake on Superstars could ever get even near a perfect score, no matter how good the wrestling is. There has to be drama.

Imagine 2001 Survivor Series without the drama and trash behind it

I was 9 when I watched that and felt some crazy level of satisfaction watching the WWF "win" over the Alliance. You need that shit.

Trash TV was part of the times. Can never be reproduced especially with this pussy SJW generation

>Then why are we supposed to be "Wrestling" fans?
Because it's a readily understood term? Mention "wrestling" to a guy on the street and they'll know what you mean. (At worst, they'll ask if you mean pro or amateur.) Mention "sports entertainment" and you'll just get confusion.
