Anyone here watch this shit other than me?

I recently started watching TNA . . . haven't really messed with WWE. But I confess that I've kind of been enjoying it.

Anyway, they just had Joe Warren on the broadcast and plugged the new Bellator season, so I was like, shit, fuck it, I'm making a thread about this.

EDIT: Joe Warren's actually helping to do the commentary on the matches which is kind of LOL.

Last time I saw TnA, some black guy was doing a perfect Ric Flair immitagion. They were arguing back in forth, was teh lulz.

I watch raw sometimes. There's always some wildness goin down.

Last night Sting showed up out of nowhere after leaving the promotion and won the heavyweight belt.

I'll say this shit: TNA has Flair and Hogan, but they don't really wrestle. They play other roles. Sting should be doing the same shit. He's like 50-something years old.

I downloaded an episode of Superstars the other day and checked it out. It was interesting, and different from TNA. I think that it's interesting that the WWE has reverted back to the TV-PG rating and isn't doing the same kind of show they were doing when Stone Cold was champ. I wonder what prompted that decision.

I cant watch it ,its just too unreal for me . I just consider it another reality show

You've lost me.

I look like it like a regular TV show. I mean, on TNA they even have names for each episode now, so they've completely abandoned the pretense that the shit's really real.

Someone the other day said something about not liking it because they aren't actually fighting each other, and I asked him if Dexter wasn't cool because he doesn't actually kill people. It's really more about the story lines than the actual wrestling.

Remember? At the end of the 90s, the WWE went from being a family friendly program aimed largely at kids to being a Howard Stern-esque soap opera with adult humor and sexual innuendo and shit.

The only problem I have with that statement is Dexter or whatever show looks real enough to watch and thats how I can watch it. When watching wrestling you can just see
the punches, kicks whatever not even coming close to landing. Not only that no where in the world do you send someone against the ropes and they bounce off and come back to you so you can clothes line them

I can watch Dexter because it could be real ,just like a movie could be .The stories in movies or Dexter are close enough to reality that they could actually happen in the real world. Now there are a lot of shows or movies that are so far out there that they couldnt possible be real and I dont watch them.

As long as you like it thats all that matters ,its just not my cup of tea

Who's Dexter?

Yeah, American pro wrestling looks too fake to me to watch. I could almost see myself watching Japanese shoot-style pro-wrestling, which seems more similar to a martial arts exhibition than it is to WWE stuff.

Who's Dexter?

I'd think of all the psychopaths in the world you'd be one that watches Dexter

I don't have Showtime.
