Re: What do you REALLY watch wrestling for?

It's a variety of things. When I first started watching, it just seemed cool to see guys like Jeff Hardy do flips and stuff. Then I started watching regularly and getting into the storylines and cheering for my favourites etc.

Eventually WWE just got really boring to me and I probably would've stopped watching altogether had I not discovered TNA (2004-5, when the X Division was at it's best imo) and eventually ROH. It was the in-ring action that I knew I wanted most, because having not ordered any WWE PPVs and only bought a few DVDs, I was deprived of their best stuff. For a while I was kinda like that "who gives a fuck about angles? HEADDROPS, KICKS, 630s!" guy. I'm still heavy on match quality, but now I appreciate/understand psychology more and what a good angle can bring to a match, but I still consider match quality my main priority when it comes to knowing what I consider good watching. I'm able to appreciate all styles now and not just think being an epic chain wrestler makes you good. The Olympics would be my best source if that's all I only wanted to see.

Also, I would love to see KENTA or Davey Richards kicking a jobber in the face until he bled buckets. Bloodthirsty? I suppose so...

Tell me if I completely missed the point of what this thread was meant to be about...
