My dad always loved Chris Benoit. Benoit and my dad are about the same height and build. I remember dad wanting to look like him (muscle-wise).
both my mom and dad used to love Jake the Snake back in the day.
My mother tells of how my great grandparents (who i never go to meet) would watch wrestling all the time, my great grandfather would get so angry at jim cornette that hed start shaking his cane at the TV lol.

My Mom was a big Bret Hart fan and my aunt was a Shawn Michaels fan, for obvious middle aged women reasons.

My dad stopped watching in 2014 when Punk left. CM punk was his favourite. He is also a fan of Brock Lesnar, Edge, Steve Austin, Chris Jericho and The Undertaker. My mother on the other hand dislikes wrestling. She hates it lol. She thinks what the people do, even though it is fake fighting is extremely dangerous, stupid and irresponsible. She refuses to watch it. Although, she has stated that if she had to choose a favourite, it would be The Rock.

Dad: Jerry Lawler
He's who got me into wrestling initially, and he's teased me about the number of times I've been around Lawler, because he's never met him and he "Liked him first"
Mom: I honestly don't think she ever had a favorite, but she's the reason I maintained such a love for wrestling. She's the one who took me to all the local events when I was young, she's the reason I got to meet Jerry the first time (when I was like 4), she's the one who bought me all the merch growing up.
Every time I see Triple H, I think of how she said he had "pretty hair" (98 DX days) Lol

My dad could care less but he knows who some of them are.
My mom likes Sting and Undertaker. She hates Triple H, Stephanie and Vince.
My brother's favorite was Ultimate Warrior and The Rock
My grandad watches and he roots for the good guys and boos the bad guys. Straight up like he always has. He turns when they do

My mom was in love with Chris Jericho. She had every t-shirt, action figure, etc. she could get her hands on. She had his autograph as well.

My mum has NEVER been a fan of wrestling, although I did take her to WWE Live once, and she fell in love with Seth Rollins. We even managed to meet him! Best day of her life lmao

You know, I'd have to ask. My mom doesn't care for it, but my dad went to Stampede Wrestling shows with a buddy of his all the time. I know I've talked with him about the likes of Dynamite Kid and Bad News Allen as well as the Undertaker and Diesel if we talk WWE. Sting too, but only surfer Sting.

My mom died in 99, but she would watch wrestling with me every now and then when I was a kid. The only ones I remember her mentioning that she liked were Dr. Death Steve Williams, Magnum T.A., and Ted Dibiase. My mom had a type.

lol great thread dude,my parents weren't big fans of wrestling, but they found Rikishi entertaining(who didn't,the stinkface lol )also remember them liking moolah and mae young because we watched the ppv where she hilariously whipped out the puppies. I was only like 10-13 during the attitude era, and at 27 to watch some media from around that time,im glad i didn't have really strict parents because i loved being a part of that weekly pg13 craziness

My parents know about my fandom for Kane so just based on that they like him, but my dad was also a mark for Scott Steiner cause my Dad is a bodybuilder and that's pretty much what Steiner was all about.

Exotic Adrian Street and Ms. Linda were my mom's favorite while I was growing up. She never watched when she was young as far as I know. They're two of my all time favorites as well
I actually got to meet both of them about 10 years ago and they were two of the nicest people ever

The whole reason I love pro wrestling is because my mom is a big fan. My dad was never really into it much, but he'd go to shows with us. (he once got a beer spilled on him at the ECW show we went to. He was cool about it.) He'd actually take all of the photos for us while there.
Anyway, my dad used to like Mick Foley. My mom's favorite was Austin. She tends to like the top babyfaces, regardless of who they are and dislikes the top heels. When Austin is out though, she's always like "MY BABY!" When we met Austin in 1998, we were supposed to just stand next to him for a photo. She wrapped him up in a big hug. To Austin's credit, he smiled and hugged her back.
For some reason, my mom has always hated Kurt Angle. Whether he was a face or heel, from the day she saw him, she couldn't stand him.

My mom never cared for it, she appreciated the production value, and supported my love, but not for her.
My dad liked Dean Malenko, Kevin Nash, and Scott Hall
