Who?? I never even heard of him, or them, or whatever this is. And yet you commented without doing any kind of research. Yes I did. Thank you for noticing.

It can be bothersome at times when some wrestling fans feel that because you like wrestling too, that you have to know who all these indy guys are that are tearing it up in some federation that I may - or may not have - heard of.

If I dig them - great! If not, then meh. It was like that for me with Sami Zayn. (As I believe you felt the same too) Where it is cool if you like the guy, but some people don't and that's okay too. Everyone has favourites for a reason.

Everyone has favourites for a reason. I agree on that. Nothing against Zayn at all, but I have no emotional investment in him. Much like I think you have, I've been watching wrestling for 20+ years and I would watch old tapes my brother had to see old WwF and NWA/WCW stuff so most of the guys I've had emotional investments in are gone. There's only a handful still competing that I will support regardless. With that said, it takes a whole lot to impress me the older I've gotten. There's only a handul of the current guys that I have an emotional investment it - Seth Rollins, Bray Wyatt, Cesaro and Ambrose, Kevin Owens(as of recently), and AJ Styles. I guess I don't welcome most guys until what I see in WWE. I know that's not exactly the best way of giving guys a chance, and I enjoy non-wwe wrestlers,sure. But with me, they've got to earn my loyalty as a fan. Essentially they have to get over with me. Sorry for the mini novel lol but I'll do what you said. I'll look into them and if I like them then I'll be all for it. If not, then everything will still be okay because we don't all have to like the same people

If not, then everything will still be okay because we don't all have to like the same people You are so right about having no emotional investment now! I have discussed this at length with a few people on this forum, and in my own personal life, and a lot of us wrestling fans who are in our late 20s or early 30 - late 30s just don't have the passion for the current product that we had/have for the older stuff we watched. I can watch Steamboat/Douglas vs. Windham/Pillman from Starrcade 92 and STILL get emotionally invested in it, even though I have seen it more times than I care to admit in the last 24 years. But now, for the most part with current wrestling, I will watch it one time and that's that. There are a few cases where something happens that I will watch over again (ex. Rollins turning on The Shield - which I think was this generations version of Barry Windham turning on Lex Luger and joining the Horsemen).

Long gone are the days of people researching CM Punk vs Chris Hero to learn who Punk is and educating themselves before his eventual debut. Just a bunch of people who are clinging to the Attitude Era now who refuse to learn anything new. Funny thing is, most aren't even born when the attitude era took place.
