I have to do some cleaning due to friends coming over to watch Wrestlemania this weekend but I was curious if there were any wrestling fans here. I’ve been watching off and on since I was a little kid and my mom told me not to watch it. My first memory is my dad watching Hogan and Mr T doing a promo for the first wrestlemania. 80s wrestling was fun to watch as a kid and late 90s/early 00s were another boom period. Now they aren’t as edgy as they once were but can still be entertaining although some things have gotten woke. WWE network is worth the subscription just for its library of classic wrestling. Japan and Mexico have great wrestling as well.

You watched during a very entertaining time. Tragic what Benoit did to his family. Now they act like he never existed
Yeah I actually really enjoyed many of the characters at the time. Do they also not mention Eddie Guerrero since he died around the same time?
He is remembered very highly. I think part of it is embarrassment for WWE. When Benoit first died it was thought that he had been a victim of a home invasion and they dedicated the whole show to him as a tribute. Then the next night McMahon opened the show and said that due to new facts coming in Chris Benoit will never be mentioned on tv again
Interesting, I was definitely too young at the time to understand what exactly happened.I always liked Benoit but finding out what went down it makes sense the league would try to hush the situation
