I never watched it to begin with.

Wrestling is fake and gay

>>84335040
Around this time too, perhaps 2002, it's so long ago I no longer remember. Now and again I'll get drawn back in, I'll watch a wrestlemania or whatever but then immediately lose interest in a week or so.

Underage fag detected. Everyone watched WWF back in the day.

I watched baseball exclusively

>>84334966
When i turned ten.

Watched it from 2003-2007.

2015

>>84335386
You have no room to talk my friend; Baseball is the shame of America.

>>84334966
About a month and a half ago.

>>84334966
I quit watching WWE around the time Cena began getting his first big main eventer push. At that time, the people they were pushing the most were Kane, Edge, Cena, Orton. Shortly after, I quit NWA/TNA as it became a retirement home for ex WCW/WWE faggots who were boring as shit even in their prime

When Bryan retired.

Two weeks before Wrestlemania 17.

I'm told I missed a hell of a show. But you know what? I don't care.

>>84334966
It was a slow ascent, but when Undertaker lost at Wrestlemania was the last straw.

>>84334966
i never watched it, my father called me gay the few times i showed interest in it. shame because the guy with the white and black mask looked cool

I started watching right after WM20. I was like 13-14 at the time so my best friend liking Eddie Guererro was enough to make me consider Benoit my favorite.

I lost interest maybe 6 months to a year before Benoit went full autist.

It may be staged but it's not fake.

again in 2008

again in 2010

again in 2013

and again 2 months ago.

See you after SummerSlam

>>84334966
in 2000-2001, when I turned 14.

>>84335304
You realize movies and tv shows are fake too, right?

>>84335304
WCW-fag

I never watched RAW. I stopped watching wrestling in like 1991.

Roman Reigns singles push

>>84334966
I can't stop.

>>84334966
Around the time Austin turned heel. I just stopped giving a shit.

>>84334966
I watched on occasion and had a couple favorites but stopped after Owen Hart died. My brother was much more into it

Better question: Why haven't you started watching the wrestlekino that is Lucha Underground?

>>84338419
Movies and TV shows don't present themselves like a legitimate sport with champions, contenders and matches under a ruleset. The fans also don't take them as seriously, getting platinum mad because their character isn't front and centre on every show.
The stories and characters are also ridiculously one dimensional. This is the reason that people think wrestling is for children.

Just could never look at it the same.

>>84340509
You do realize WWE is always speaking about itself as sports entertainment right? That means they create episodic shows about athletes putting on matches with storylines.

2001 then i started again in 09 and watched for like 2 years

2001 I think. I briefly came back but was turned off by the retarded wrestler Mr. Kennedy.

I haven't watched Raw since CMPunk left.

My friend pays for wwen and lets me leech his account.

I do watch the ppvs if they get good ratings from another site I frequent, but usually just watch specific people, like Alexa Bliss or Seth Rollins matches.

I watch/listen to like a podcast talking smack on my commute to work on Wed mornings

I'm a strange wrestling fan right now.

>>84334966
2015, after Reigns won the Rumble.

>>84340819
Yeah, and it's some of the worst shit on TV that rightfully has a reputation as a fake sport for rubes and hicks.

>>84341185
Who hurt you?

Like 2001 or 2002.

I think it might have still been WWF at that point but I could be wrong.

Steve Austin, Mick Foley and Triple H were still around.

fuck man... I stopped around 2007-8, started around 2003 so I missed all the good things.

You must be watching different television from me friendo. Fucking spergs on /got/ do that shit all the time.

>>84338362
Patrician.

>>84340582
Crossface crippler?

>>84341185
(You) got me!

I only watched it with my dad and my sister to spend time with them. Then I realized that was a losing game so I gave it up. I think Triple H held the heavyweight championship title so... '99? '00? Sometime around then.

Stopped around 2004 when the Rock and Stone Cold stopped appearing. Started watching again when The Rock came back in like 2011 then stopped watching again after Wrestlemania 30 when Undertaker's streak was broken

When they changed the F to an E or sometime thereabouts. I figured I grew out of it but then I stayed at a friends house-sitting for 3 days and binge watched retro shit on his WWE network subscription.

Modern wrestling is fucking dull.

before it was even called raw, when I was 10 or 11.

when Becky went to Smackdown

>>84334966
Around 2006 or so. Or whenever they started shilling Cena so fucking hard

>>84334966
after cain was demasked then had his bs with edge's wife

>>84342997
Dull? Modern Wrestlers actually fucking wrestle. Granted the stories have turned to shit, but the talent is so much better at wrestling than it was in the past.

>>84335273
Same.

On a more or less related note, anyone want to buy a bunch of DVDs? Shit I even have a fuckload of burned ECW episodes, commercials and all. Ashamed to say I paid for them, but they were fun to watch.

2002-ish when that terrible HHH megapush happened. Never looked back.

Quit a long time ago, came back after the CM Punk pipebomb, quit again a few RAWs after the Daniel Bryan vs John Cena match where Triple H was the referee.

>>84334966
The second week into the WCW invasion. To be fair I was thinking of quitting since Mae Young hand birth on smack down. But the whos who of WCW midcarders killed it. I want Wrestlemania 32 with a friend and it was garbage except shane o Mac diving off the cell. Roman Reigns is so fucking Boring. And Bork suplexed that mother fucker over 20 times.

1993 was the last year the Royal Rumble wasn't rigged. That used to be my favorite kind of match because it was the one that looked like it could never be rigged.

About two years ago and never looked back. Apparently it's still shit, except for the fact they hired a bunch of really talented indie guys, which they are also pushing? I dunno. If that's true, I'll wait for more of them to pop in before I give it another chance.
