Moderate fan, not like I used to be when I was younger (The Attitude Era etc) but I still follow it from time to time, nostalgia more then anything else. I hate it when guys call it fake and that the wrestlers are a bunch of fakes or whatnot. Ive got one name to respond to that Brock Lesnar Pro Wrestler turned UFC monster, look at his win against Carwin last month. Nothing fake about that. Another name to keep an eye out for... Bobby Lashley Doing MMA now, another pro wrestler who is branching out. Some others include Ken Shamrock, Dave 'Batista' Bautista, Daniel Puder etc.. Think you'll find that Ken Shamrock was the king of Pancrase and then he went to the WWE. AFterwards he retired. #thumb# |

I was a huuuge fan as a kid, and followed it until pretty recently when I've found it hard to keep up. Last time I was thoroughly into it Bryan Danielson was shitting on everyone as ROH Champion. I've watched bits here and there but not really fully on top of it at all since then.
When I do it'll usually be ROH, Dragon Gate (or now DGUSA too), NOAH (even saw it live in Coventry, Misawa was on the card - awesome!), DDT (hilarious!), PWG and whatever else takes my fancy. I hope EVOLVE is good.
Mainly when I do watch it I'll watch the puroresu stuff. Loved Toryumon, Michinoku Pro and all that stuff so I would quite like to get into it again.
DDT is brilliant though, the only promtion I am aware of to have YOSHIHIKO (a blow up doll) as a champion.
From the DDT wikipedia page:
"Misutero - An "invisible wrestler" i.e. non-existent. Opponents sell moves of a wrestler who isn't there, and the title is held by nothing and no-one but the wrestlers and referees act as if they can see and pin the "invisible wrestler". Muscle Sakai "won" the title from this "invisible wrestler" by using a "ray gun" and "infrared visor" to shoot the "invisible wrestler", winning the belt on a KO decision." Brilliant!
- Misutero fight!

Dixie Carter's promised a massive surprise for tonight, followed by a massive change in TNA as a whole. My money's on Heyman/Sapolsky being brought in as main creative as Hogan's role is reduced even further as it seems him and Carter have massively fallen out over him being in TNA. was this some wishful thinking? massive shame Heymans proposals were thrown out but no surprise |

TNA continues to be the shits, Jeff Hardy what a mess LOLZ! The PPV was alright until then. It's a shame Jeff Hardy is intent on self-destructing as he's actually interesting as a character now, rather being a glorified spot-monkey. Anyways. Less talk about Hardy and more talk about Colt Cabana as NWA World Champ and Eddie Edwards as ROH champ. BOOM! |

Edge has retired, 99.9% sure it's legitimate and not an angle.

Glad I saw Edge's last match at 'Mania, but his retirement doesn't bother me too much as I was never his biggest fan.
Hopefully this means some new blood coming into the Smackdown Main Event. GOD knows it needs it.
