Anything wrestling related.

-My favourite wrestler of all time is Stone Cold Steve Austin, just because he is a trash-talking, beer-drinking crazy person!

[Maverick]

I liked Stone Cold too. I really haven't watched wrestling much in years though.

[Underground_Network]

My favorite wrestler was Chris Benoit... but anyway, I don't really follow wrestling any more. I liked it better when Hulk Hogan, the Rock, and Stone Cold Steve Austin were around. Benoit and Eddie Guerrero are gone, as are Triple H and HBK (for now), Edge is gone for awhile, as is my favorite female wrestler, Ashley Massaro. Trish and Chyna, two great female wrestlers, no longer wrestle. Of the current era wrestlers who aren't dead, injured, or tired of the sport, I like John Cena (I used to like him more, but I still think he's ok), Batista, the Great Khali (anyone that big gets my attention), the Boogeyman (even though I hate ECW), and.... hmmm... Bobby Lashley?... eh he's ok... Wrestlers I miss (I'm probably forgetting a million names: The Rock, Goldust, APA (Farooq and Bradshaw), Stone Cold Steve Austin, Chris Benoit, Hulk Hogan, Eddie Guerrero, Chris Jericho, HBK, Triple H, Trish Stratus, Chyna, Brock Lesnar, Goldberg, Rey Mysterio (even though he's supposedly coming back), RVD (if he still wrestles, I'm unaware), and many, many more...

[JoshDude]

Yeah, so many great "old-school" wrestlers dont do it anymore. Stone Cold and the Rock had a huge impact on my view of wrestling. I suppose you have to get used of the new ones.

pac man jones is going to wrestle tommorrow for those people who dont who he is he played in the nfl but was suspended cause some stuff that happend in LV so look out 4 him

[Underground_Network]

WWE/ECW just had to crackdown on steroid users due to the Chris Benoit massacre. They have to suspend 10-15 wrestlers depending on what article you read, and some of those wrestlers are: Booker T, Batista, Randy Orton, and John Morrison (the ECW champ).

(mega bump)
I'm not a huge WWE fan, I've been with them since the Attitude era but today it's just grown stale. I'm a TNA convert, granted, they do use old WWE stars with no potential (goldust/black reign) and their gimmicks and storylines are a bit iffy (stone cold shark boy...'nuff said) but I see it as a fresh and entertaining alternative. If only people could give it a chance

[madness]

sorry to say it but like everything tna is going down the crapper - they were best in 05 when they actually pushed young talented wrestlers - but since russo's had control, bye bye good wrestling
i can only watch wwf 2001 now or roh or a bit of njpw without wanting to kill the crap wrestlers
*coughs*cena khali etc

[dmeek7]

The Rock

[dmeek7]

do ya smellllllllll what the rick is cookin

[big guy]

do ya smellllllllll what the rick is cookin

the rick? lol
i used 2 b a wwe fan, but now i think its annoying bcuz its lk the same thing over and over. the only guys from the wwe that i lk are MVP, Kofi Kingston, and sum of the Divas. im a TNA convert, but i do think that using old superstars lk Kevin Nash and Sting is kinda of a waste of time, but at least Samoa Joe is the champ now. and sum of their gimmicks r retarded, lk Stone Cold Shark Boy and Super Eric?!?! I mean com on

[Electric Cheese]

the rick? lol
Stone Cold Shark Boy and Super Eric?!?! I mean com on

*cough* stonecold and the hurricane! *cough*

I'm a bit annoyed with TNA at the moment. Jay lethal comes out of Lethal lockdown, making his character strong by literally overcoming the odds, but then they job him out to petey williams on iMPACT! after he cashed in his feast or fired x-division shot. I'm annoyed because they once again build up a character to look literally invincable only to make him lok a jackass, but on the other hand, the belt has gone to someone who diserves it.

three problems with TNA
1. Vince Russo
2. Rellik which is killer spelt backwards and Black reign, also BG and Kip james, Shark boy, horrible gimmick matches
3. obvious lack of good consistant creative direction. TNA is like a family member recovering from a serious addiction, just when you think its all good, it has a relapse.

and ROCK AND RAVE ARE F*CKING AWESOME!!!111

[theOperaGhost]

BG and Kip james

Did they used to be Jesse James and Billy Gunn? I've never watched TNA.
I know Billy Gunns name is Kip, so am I right on that one?

you be correct!

My main problem with ECW at the moment

MIKE "jess harvey" ADAMLE

I'm going to dance like a crazy mo-fo when the "we want joey *clap clap clap-clap clap*" chants start!!

[crash007]

Im surprised no one mentioned one of my favorites. Rikishi!! The stink face was a great signature move. haha. I miss seeing him on WWE.

[theOperaGhost]

I only liked Rikishi when he danced with Too cool. Scotty 2 Hotty is awesome!

[jimbot]

As far as the greatest in ring performer that goes to shawn michaels without a doubt

as far as image it goes to the undertaker

greatest wrestling career goes to ric flair

but in my eyes the greatest overall wrestler of all time is the peoples champ the rock. i dont believe theres anyone who has been a greater all round wrestler than the rock. Hes incredibly entertaining, the greatest wrestler ever on the mic, great in ring performer he has the look and the catch phrases hes number 1 in my eyes.

[overcome.]

I was a hardcore fan during the attitude era, so from say 1998 until 2002. My all time favourite is Triple H for sure. Other favourites would include Brock Lesnar, Kurt Angle, Stone Cold, The APA, and a few others. For me wrestling isn't what it used to be, given with the fact that I've gotten older and more aware, I'm not a fan now really (the internet does spoil a lot these days in everything).

Favourite storylines, years, matches, shows, events anybody?

I loved Triple H's return from a quad tear in Jan 02, the biggest pop I think you'd ever hear in a wrestling event, ever from MSG, NY. I still have that episode of Raw on my PC haha, Raw as a whole was my favourite show. I was a WCW fan for a while, but I've always preferred WWF/E. My favourite wrestling year was probably 2001. Favourite events ever are WrestleMania 16/17 (2000/2001, particularly 01).
