I've watched pro wrestling since I was a kid and I still enjoy it.I know most mma fans are very anti pro wrestling but I enjoy the storylines and athletic abilities of the performers. I was just wondering what everyones feelings were about professional wrestling

Do I watch sitcoms and movies? Yes. Do any of these feature men in ******** costumes making believe that they are practicing some form of martial art of sport?

Karate Kid? Rocky? Spiderman? Soooo many things.

We're all just tired of being called dorks for liking wrestling. So we banned together and decided it was a real sport and we were going to assault you with comments until you agreed, lol.

I dont mind watching Japanese wrestling as well. The Japanese love their wrestling. I enjoyed watching Chris Hero's match with Yoshihiro Takayama.

The Japanese take wrestling to extremes it should never go to, but that's just their way. I've seen guys legitimately slicing into one another with knives in some of the Big Japan Deathmatches. If you remember New Jack from ECW he was recently in a match in some promotion where the only way to win was to stab your opponent, so he got real shank happy with a fork.

I remember seeing a New Jack interview where he says that he lost his eyesight after falling off the scaffold.

Despite my personal feelings that pro wrestling is ridiculous, I also realize we must all allow others to enjoy whatever it is they like, so long as they don't interfere with the rights of anyone else.

I remember reading a little anecdote a long time ago.  Two sports writers were arguing about the merits of basketball.  One loved it and the other didn't.  The one who didn't said, "If the final basketball playoffs were played in my front yard, I'd pull the curtains!"  To each their own, I guess.

But pro wrestling?  Seriously?  I do wish some of them would seriously train for MMA.  That might be exciting.

one of the most insane spots for a non-regular performer ever!!

@Bill alot of pro wrestlers including CM Punk and Undertaker said they would definitely have tried out mma if it were around when they were starting out.

Shane McMahon is so sick, he's always been sick. The ******* son of a billionaire had the balls to do this.

I really wish he got into MMA like the rumors said.

Yesterday I was looking through my dvds and forgot that I had the Road Warriors dvd. I completely forgot that Animal and John Lauirinaitis are brothers. They also showed a scaffold match in which Jim Cornette falls from a scaffold and blows both his knees out.

I still root for Shane whenever I see him do his little shuffle. In addition, I am excited to play as Shane-O-Mac in WWE 13.

I really shouldn't be knocking what others enjoy, despite my personal opinions.  Many of my female friends harbor dark suspicions with respect to my dark side because they know very well I'm hooked on watching MMA and murder cases on TV.

They have wondered out loud what kind of man sleeps like a baby after watching murder and grown men punching each other in the face.  And I can't explain it to them.  If you don't understand, there's no point in going into it.

And almost all my friends are into healthy eating while I am the lone unsaved, unrepentant renegade who still loves his coke, potato chips, fried chicken, pizza, chocolate and Hagen Das.  I have to hide my snacks when they come over.

So, who am I to ***** at anyone?

Well to be fair, mma isnt just brutality. It is a sport. The one guy I would have loved to see in mma was Angle. I still think he is one of the best pro wrestlers today.

@kallousklown Don't know if you follow football or not but I believe that star linebacker James Laurinaitis is the nephew of good ol' Johnny Ace.

As for the shuffle..

There will always be a hole in my heart filled with angst that Bruce Lee was born ahead of his time. What a shame.
