snowboard_freak 0 Posted April 30, 2003 Share Posted April 30, 2003 Well there are several different kinds of wrsetling. The Greek Roman wrestling, or whatever its called, in the Olympics is real. But the WWF or WWE i think it is now is, as fatty has mentioned, fake. Link to post Share on other sites
Stefan 0 Posted May 1, 2003 Share Posted May 1, 2003 Used to watch it when I was younger, Macho King, Jake the Snake and all! I think it's officially called Sports Entertainment, as it's not classed a 'sport' in the true sense, there ain't no competition in it. Link to post Share on other sites
snowboard_freak 0 Posted May 1, 2003 Share Posted May 1, 2003 I used to watch it too. Probably around the same time you did Mr Matthews. The Macho Man Randy Savage! I always liked the Undertaker. I think he is still around though. I'm suprused how many i can actually remember! Useless 'knowledge' really. Link to post Share on other sites
badmigraine 0 Posted May 1, 2003 Share Posted May 1, 2003 I was never into the WWF or any of the foreign iterations thereof (Lucha Libre, European, Japanese)... Maybe I was too old to appreciate it, but it always seemed crushingly, utterly insipid and boring... I can't even praise it as cartoonish, because it lacks any of the redeeming features of cartoons...it is like a media fart. Grownups don't watch pro wrestling. Grownups enjoy grownup things, like THIS. Link to post Share on other sites
snowboard_freak 0 Posted May 1, 2003 Share Posted May 1, 2003 Bear in mind that I was only young at the time. Maybe 10. I was so young and innocent and impressionable back then. Nice link BM. Link to post Share on other sites
badmigraine 0 Posted May 1, 2003 Share Posted May 1, 2003 When I was that age, we used to watch roller hockey...now THAT was a sport! And Batman of course. Julie Newmar in that shiny black skintight catsuit was one of my formative childhood experiences, it has shaped my entire sexuality. MEOW!! Link to post Share on other sites
Stefan 0 Posted May 1, 2003 Share Posted May 1, 2003 I always liked Brutus the Barber Beefcake, surely the most well thought out wrestlers name of all time! A media fart? That is rather harsh, yet looking at wrestling today, I'd have to agree. Link to post Share on other sites

wendy-cake 0 Posted May 3, 2003 Share Posted May 3, 2003 Isn't wrestling just "entertainment"? Link to post Share on other sites
taguchi 0 Posted May 4, 2003 Share Posted May 4, 2003 Not fun entertainment ,I think. Do you like sumo? Link to post Share on other sites
Karnidge 2 Posted May 5, 2003 Share Posted May 5, 2003 Wrestling is just a joke. Sumo is a different matter... Link to post Share on other sites
snowboard_freak 0 Posted May 5, 2003 Share Posted May 5, 2003 Sumo is good. I've only been to one tournament but i really enjoyed it. Link to post Share on other sites
