- Internet wrestling fans
Part of the death of kayfabe, but then again part of the evolution of wrestling, for better or worse, but it was always going to happen with such an advanced piece of communication, fans can now gain insider knowledge to an extent. Some are alright, some are tossers, you can't all paint them with the same brush.

- Perry Saturn
As a wrestler I suppose he was cool, Eliminators, Moppy, Radicals, that stuff was great.

shame about his current circumstances, apparently he didn't make enough money from wrestling to pay his child support, ex-wifes can be a pain in the arse yeah. I think he should make unscheduled appearences, roll in and out of town in the same day to escape his exs lawyers. Such a shame we can't see him doing what he loves now under these circumstances.

- Wrestlemania X7
Probably the greatest wrestling show in all history, so many fantastic matches and exiting moments, it will go down in history and never be forgotten.

- Beth Pheonix or Awesome Kong
Awesome Kong, she is awesome, one of the better womens wrestlers to come out of the 21st century.

- Wrestling T-shirts
Alot of them are just too crude for my liking, I would buy them if I didn't feel awkward wearing some of them.

- Current worst wrestler with a technical gimmick
Erm, I can't think of one right now.

- SHIMMER
Not really watched it.

- FMW
Oh, they brought hardcore to Japan, and revolutionised it, that bomb/fire stuff was immense.

- TNA 2005
Erm, I dunno.

- The Divas Search<!-- google_ad_section_end -->
Not wrestling, but more goofy sh*t from the E, Lou Thesz & Stu Hart I guarentee to you are spinning in their graves over it. Hasn't really turned out much talent has it.

Internet wrestling fans
They have their opinions about the wrestling industry.

Perry Saturn
Never was a huge fan of Saturn, but his moppy sketch was gold.

Wrestlemania X7
One of the best PPVs of all time. The Kurt Angle/Chris Benoit, Austin/Rock, and the TLC matches were the best matches of the PPV and we all witnessed a shocking heel turn by Austin when joining force with his boss Vince McMahon.

Wrestling T-shirts
It shows of what wrestler they're a fan of. TBH, I'm ashamed of buying a DX shirt 2 years ago.

The Divas Search
Should've never created it and never thought of.

Re: 5. THOUGHTS ON....

- Internet wrestling fans

You could say a contributor to the downfall of wrestling, especially with spoilers, knowing of backstage happenings, breaking kayfabe, access to download PPVS/shows rather than paying/watching them on TV, etc. It's really a given. It however also opened the doors and popularized Indy companies, such as ROH, etc.

- Wrestlemania X7

The greatest PPV of all time. Such great storylines going into the PPV with such heated feuds, and the matches didn't disappoint either. As a fan, mark, smark, whatever, I'm sure very few disliked the PPV.

- Wrestling T-shirts

I hate shirts that are so patterned or cheesy, like the ones that have a big WWE logo, or pictures of wrestlers on the front. Also, any ones that make it too obvious its wrestling. I did however like the plain black (white text) 'Hustle, Loyalty, Resptect' t-shirt, because its not obvious its wrestling.

- FMW

Watched a few shows of this on TWC before it was taken off TV. Pretty damn good promotion, the wrestling was fun, and the storylines with subtitles just made the wrestling feel so damn important without the need for any cheesy storylines. A better version of old school ECW, imo.

- TNA 2005

Didn't catch the beginning of the year, but the company was quite good during its internet show era and the first few months of Impact on Spike TV was enjoyable. Some good matches happened this year featuring one of the best match the company has ever witnessed.

- The Divas Search

I don't really mind bikini contests, but its ridiculous when girls are doing all sorts of activities. It's not really entertaining, or does it make me hard, and takes away from wrestling. I'd prefer if this was just featured on the net. But, girls sell, so it attracts casual fans.

Re: 5. THOUGHTS ON....

- Internet wrestling fans
In a way a pain in the wrestling industry's side with spoilers for storylines and matches leaking out

- Perry Saturn
"You're welcome" springs automatically to mind and to me that gimmick was the best and only thing the E ever did for him

- Wrestlemania X7
Was the best ppv of the attitude era and to some like myself seemd to end that era with Austin and his arch rival joining forces to get what he wholeheartedly desired which was the WWf title

- Wrestling T-shirts
Great for their time in the attitude era but post 2002 I wouldn't be caught dead in one with the exception of Evolution's t-shirts


- The Divas Search<!-- google_ad_section_end -->
One of the worste waste of time (and talent) in the E, they would rather hire 10 women with little to none experience in the business just to up their Eye candy at the expense of mid carders with actual talent.

Re: 5. THOUGHTS ON....

Internet wrestling fans
Not going to stereotype, but a lot seem to complain no matter what happens. Ohay Steve
To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 20 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.

Also, a lot think they have more power than they do. WWE don't give a shit about the IWC as it is such a small percentage of the fanbase, and often, not the ones who spend the money. I've seen people say their thoughts will convince WWE to change, or that WWE take ideas from e-feds...lol.

Perry Saturn
I only saw him in WWE and he was entertaining. Maybe the insane gimmick was a bit too much with ''moppy'', but he was always a good wrestler and I enjoyed the Radicalz. Maybe should have been pushed more.

Wrestlemania X7
The best PPV ever. So many great matches including Rock/Austin, one of the best matches ever, TLC II, Trips/Taker, Vince/Shane, the hardcore 3 way, Angle/Benoit. It just had everything you could possibly ask of a Wrestlemania. Amazing atmosphere, amazing card, amazing show.

Beth Pheonix or Awesome Kong

I don't really see what is so great about Kong. She is big, but I don't see much actual talent. I think the only reason people love her and say Beth is shit is that she's in TNA. Beth is a better wrestler and extremely hot too.

Wrestling T-shirts

I wear them sometimes but not when I'm going out lol, seems more of a kids thing. I like them if they are not obviously wrestling shirts. Some of Orton's and HBK's look cool. I still want the Cactus Jack ''Wanted Dead'' one, but yeah in general they're for younger fans I'd say.

SHIMMER
I've never checked it out, but I hear its very good. Problem is, I mainly like womens wrestling for eye candy so WWE is fine.

TNA 2005
I wasn't watching at the time, but I have since seen a lot of matches from this period and it was pretty great. Matches like the Unbreakable 3 way and the Styles/Joe match at Turning Point were incredible (2 best TNA matches ever) and from what I have seen, the standard was consistently pretty high, with AJ and Joe at their best and not too many has-beens taking the focus off the originals.

The Divas Search
Terrible. It has produced some hot winners/runners up, but I don't get the point of it. Just sign women who are hot and can actually wrestle.

His current circumstance is that he got shot in the neck three times trying to prevent a rape. He has a metal plate in him now. Nothing to do with his ex-wife's.

Oh yeah I forgot about that. What a class act. Shame.

And I also forgot about the Eliminators. I never watched ECW at the time but I've seen some of their matches and they were damn good.

I heard differently quite recently, I heard that that story was made up as an excuse to no show some shows. Either way, he was in talks with Shane Douglas to do Hardcore Homecoming, but apparently the doctors couldn't clear him to wrestle.

He should do some appearences, even if they're not wrestling.

Re: 5. THOUGHTS ON....

Why would anyone make up a story about getting shot as a cover story? No one has even seen him in about two years leading people to wonder if he is dead. He didnt even attend some of his friends funerals. Non-Wrestling appearances may be a stretch considering that.
