Pro Wrestling was so much better when there was a stigma attached to it and you would never reveal to anyone you knew or cared about that you actually watched it.

That’s literally what it is now.

In the late 90’s wrestling was accepted by the MTV crowd. Older people still thought it was low-brow though

wrestling was much better when the chuds kept all the twinks out of the business too. it wasn't some stigma or shame, it was gatekeeping at every level.

It's not the same. It used to be a shameful thing if your friend or acquaintance found out you watched wrestling.

When? In the 80’s and late 90’s wrestling was a big part of pop culture. The only people who thought it was low-class were parents.

In my defense I hung out around a lot of "higher-class" people I guess, and yes those low-brow things were seen as embarrassing and shameful. I could watch with my family no problem, but people I want to impress can't know.

There's a stigma to it now. How many people have you told you like wrestling? So, pro wrestling must be the best it's ever been. Your logic is flawed, gay OP

There's still stigma attached to it the problem is the only wrestling fans left are the lowest of the lowest common denominator with zero self awareness. WWE is constantly sucking their own dicks trying to convince people they're trendy and cool and unfortunately stupid people are very impressionable.

This doesn’t apply to wrestling. This applies to video games. Too many normalfaggots like video games, like WAY too many.

They're the same. Any "hobby" that gives girls the "ick", you cannot talk about or even let girls see you participating. I don't even play games, but hide my PS4 when I have babes over.

I'm gonna say this. Girls who obsess over "icks" that aren't harming anyone are fucking cringe. No joke and you can blame social media for making gold diggers.

Not finna argue with that brother. I hate myself for even using the meme word.

Gold digging though has been around since the Jews killed Jesus. His best friend, Judas, betrayed him for gold/power. A trope still used in prowrestling till this day.

My wife watches more pro wrestling than I do now. If you act embarrassed she'll get the "ick" from your lack of confidence. If you act normal she'll adopt all your hobbies to spend time with you

It's worse now. Bunch of provincial, subhuman marks are 99% of the audience. There were actually normal people who liked wrestling back in the 90s.

You fell for the WWE propaganda that wrestling is cool and hot. It’s not wrestling is still gay and everyone thinks you’re a retard for watching that gay fake shit.
