I watch WWE weekly out of habit, but sometimes I delve deeper and go through wrestling phases where it's the only thing I watch (if you don't see me on movie forums for a week it's because I'm watching wrestling).

If so which companies do you watch and who are your favorite wrestlers?

Starting about 1994, I got hooked on WWE, WCW and eventually ECW. WCW was always my favovrite. And I still miss it. All that shit was a helluva lot of fun for a long time, but nothing fun about the current WWE product which I finally gave up on 4 or 5 years ago. The predictable, dumbed down style of the matches, and overly rehearsed promos are retarded and obviously designed to program the younger generations into seeing it all as something completely different than it was. How that company has ended up kinda makes me ahsamed of ever liking it to begin with. And how they've destroyed the industry in order to stay on top is disgusting. WWE is too kid friendly, too Hollywood, too much like a shitty reality show. The matches and titles mean nothing. It's all about pushing merchandise and getting as much money out of the fans as they can without putting on a good show. And plus, John Cena. A guy who they've been given a Hogan-push to for over a decade, can't even get cheered in his own fucking home town, yet, those assholes continue to push him like he's the goddamn Rock. As if someday, they'll find a way to trick the fans into liking him. Never gonna happen. No matter how how many other guys they hold down in order to make him look good. And their attempts to guilt trip the fans into liking him by bringing up all the charity work they force him to do is pathetic. I genuinely hope that company goes out of business and I also hope anyone who has fallen for their stock scam loses everything. I love what pro wrestling used to be, and still have much respect for it. But that industry will never recover until the WWE empire falls.

I'm too discouraged to watch wrestling these days. Partly cuz all my old favorites are either retired or might as well be. I hear ROH is pretty good. I was kinda into TNA up until a few years ago when they really started sucking, which was not too long after Hogan showed up. Not much hope for GFW or anything Jarrett is involved with. Unfortunately, the only worthwhile wrestling news that happens any more is someone dying.

My all-time favorites are The Undertaker, Ric Flair, Bret Hart, Kurt Angle, Kevin Nash, Edge and Arn Anderson.

I suspect they haven't forgotten anything. It seems as if they'd rather be a shitty entertainment company than a good wrestling company. Although, McMahon seemed to have surrounded himself with non-wrestling people, and I know that's not an accident. The man just hates wrestling. That's the root of it all. But it is funny to see them try so hard to be mainstream relevant and fail so miserably. Idiots are always a decade behind. Even if I was on board with the whole sports entertainment/we're not wrestling thing, I still find WWE to be unwatchable tv which occasionally features a wrestler from the 80's or 90's just to trick the old fans into not straying too far away. And it's all so organized. Flair will make his appearance in North Carolina, Bret Hart will make his appearance in Calgary, etc. Everything is SO carefully worked out to milk as much money out of everyone as they can. SO GODDAMN ANNOYING! emoticon

I've heard about how great ROH was before alot of their talent got raided. I can only imagine how much better a Brain Danielson or C.M. Punk match would be on there where they have the creative freedom to put on a good match.

I've seen a little Lucha Underground. It looks pretty good. Theyr'e not an actual wrest;ing promotion, are they? Just a tv show featuring wrestlers. That's weird.
