yanno, your slang might seem cool when you are talking to saomeone but this is typing and it just looks and reads stupid.

Anyways, I have been watching wrestling since I was a kid over 20+ years ago. I remember watching Randy Savage in Grand Prix Wrestling with Killer Karl Kroop and his killer claw! Or the Cuban Assissin! haha, that was some funny sh*t.

Hey, good topic. I remember picking up a wwf magazine in May of 1988. It was covering Wrestlemania 4 and other stuff. I found it interesting, and I bought it. That week I tuned into Superstars and I have been hooked ever since.

What would it take for me to turn it off? Well, lately, I have been willing to miss it everyonce in awhile. That used to be a big crime in my book. I figure if it keeps sucking for a long enough time I would slowly tune out. It has sucked at times, but lately there has been cool stuff too. So, who knows?

1991

I can't remember how I got into it, I just remember watching it a lot lol

I lost interest from 95-97 which was unfortunate, but I got given 'WWF Attitude' for a present (1997) and loved the dude 'Edge' on the game, his music and entrance rocked - so thats how I got back into Wrestling lol

I'd say around 1987 I started watching. My older brother was a big fan of WCW and a HUGE Ric Flair fan (WOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!) and my buddy was big into it. He'd have PPV parties and we'd all go over to his place, drink soda, eat chips and cheer on our favs. THAT was back in the day when wrestling was so pure - we had no idea it was scripted, no idea that guys were jobbing or going over, etc., etc. I'll never forget when Taker tombstoned Hogan onto the steel chair and pinned him. What an amazing moment, especially b/c everyone in the room just expected Hulk to get up, Hulk up, drop the leg and win.

I watched it off and on during the late 80's but I didn't start following it religously until Royal Rumble '92. I doubt I will ever stop watching it.

Probably 1988-1989. My dad would bring home tapes a guy from his work taped from payperviews. I remember watching Wrestlemania V, Hogan vs. Savage for the WWF Championship. So from then onto about 1994, I was into wrestling. After 94 I stopped watching, then started again in 1998, nWo and DX interested me back into it.

Now I watch the least amount of wrestling since the mid 90's.

At the turn of the century, when Heat was shown on Channel 4 on Sunday afternoons, I watched it a bit with my mate. Then I thought "I'll tape the Rumble, that could be fun, 30 guys in a ring", and was instantly hooked.

My dad and my grandpa used to be hardcore wrestling fans, so I got into it when I was like 4 years old. SO that would have been around 1986.

Haven't been tuning in a whole lot lately though

Yo, like how much WWE merchendize (sp) do you all have?
I got about 10 store bought tapes/dvds and a bunch I recorded from TV and PPVs. I've have/had most of the videogames from different sytstems. I've been to one live Raw show. I would go more but they don't come to Raleigh, NC much. Thats about all, what about chall.
Peace
