That's right, in another edition of Tapology Talks we bring to you pro wrestling! I've seen individual threads on pro wrestling, I've seen pro wrestling talk litter all over the "Slow Days" thread so why don't we try to manage the talk?

And what better way than to open up a Tapology Talks thread, amirite?

So to start the conversation, who here's a pro wrestling fan, when were you introduced to pro wrestling, your favorite wrestlers, etc. etc?

I became a pro wrestling fan in 2008, my first match I ever saw was WWE Raw with CM Punk vs MVP, my favorite wrestlers are CM Punk, Stone Cold Steve Austin and Daniel Bryan. I'm starting to watch pro wrestling again because CM Punk's slowly turning heel, and that's great news.

How bout you?

The Ultimate Warrior is and has always been a joke. Terrible wrestling and terrible promos, yet he's considered a "legend" and is being inducted into the hall of fame. ****'s sad.

Wrestling over the last few years though has become so bad. It seems like neither TNA or WWE has any idea what the **** they're doing, and although both may produce some interesting moments, some good wrestlers and some good matches they both but way to much emphasis on this that the average wrestling fan doesn't care about.
It's sad to me that Randy Orton is being pushed right now as the face of the company instead of someone like Daniel Bryan or CM Punk. Not only do both of them have much better wrestling ability and mic skills, they're also much more entertaining. But because they don't fit the typical mold of what the top  guy(s) should look like the WWE tries to shove people like Orton and Cena down our throats even though they have below average wrestling ability and terrible mic skills.

When Talking about the ULTIMATE WARRIOR it may be a good idea to speak fondly of him as his creatures of the night are everywhere.

Punk and Bryan are my 2 of my favorites currently in the WWE they haven't done enough yet tho to be one of my all time favorites .

Cool list tho man im not a Cena fan but im not a hater either he's done some great stuff for the sport .

and Jeff Hardy before he went to Tna was the **** always had an entertaining match . haven't really followed Impact wrestling so not sure what he's been up to lately
