Stone Cold, Triple H and the Rock were epic when I was a kid...I don't know how grown adults still watch wrestling though especially with the lame "characters" compared to what we had in the 90's. I remember watching stone cold live in calgary back in the 90's when he stunner'd about 5 guys then did the classic beer chug. I was in the first few rows and had beer hit me and it was awesome.

I read about this earlier, I didn't know about this murder charge but superfly was one of my all time favorites. agree with the the above though, I'm not even sure why it's still a thing.

I'm trying to get my kids interested in wrestling so I have an excuse to watch again.

The new generation of superstars are pretty entertaining.

Bring them to a PWA wrestling show at century casino... they tend to connect with it better when they see it live.

I think one of my all time favourite moments ever was Wrestlemania 20 Chris Benoit VS Shawn Michaels and Triple H. Best moment ever watching Chris Benoit win the belt and Eddie Guerrero coming out to celebrate with him.

Tragic he'll never be mentioned in the WWE world unfortunately.

NWO was awesome. Hulk hogan heel turn. 90's wrestling was so dark and sinister compared to the clown show today. Haven't tuned in to WWE in years. It lost its charm and promoted the wrong people. Zero star power compared to the 90s run.

I started watching wrestling again since last year haha. It's definitely not as great as it was in the Attitude era, but there are some good wrestlers and good story lines. But the new 'PG" era that mcmahon is trying to usher in is a bit weak. Definitely playing up the nostalgia part by bringing guys like Goldberg, Undertaker, the rock back for brief and fleeting moments, which actually kinda suchs. Nobody wants to see 50year old guys wrestle for 30 seconds

Kurt Angle is one if the best technical wrestlers around.

Kurt Angle vs. Chris Benoit matches are poetry in motion.

[Dave P]

Kurt is being inducted into the WWE hall of fame this weekend.

[flipstah]

Rumor is that Kurt might return to television in a non-wrestling capacity, so probably Commissioner or something.

I remember Stampede wrestling coming to my town of 800 people and setting up in the community center. It only had a 12ft drop ceiling so when a dude went up on the corner buckle to jump he smoked his head on a ceiling fan. . Good times and it was a big deal in the mid 1980's.

I watched briefly in the 90s. NWO era. It was entertaining.

My step brother is in the WWE currently, was funny watching him morph into the "jacked and tan dbag" persona they made for him.

For those of you who remember the best wrestling ever-Stampede Wrestling!
Archie The Stomper Gouldie vs Brett Hart.


RIP Archie!
