The N64 and ps1 games kinda looked like crap and I was never that into them. Then again, I had also taken a break from pro wrestling at the time so they had less appeal

The N64 THQ games were so good that I played them even after I stopped watching wrestling.

I always knew it was fake, I was never one of those people, but I enjoyed seeing them jump off the Titantron down 40ft and elbow some dude on the floor. Is it fake? Yeah. Was the fall real? Ooooh yeah.

The choreography of the matches were also amazing. I remember one with Shawn Michaels and Mankind. God damn! It was soooo good. These guys did amazing. Looked real, and lots of creative moves were done. At one point Mankind was thrown through the top and middle ropes, and ended up twisted and basically choked/hanging by the ropes.

But then The Rock came, and blew up. And all of a sudden they couldnt have the guy with 50 different catch phrases, all of which are printed on T-Shirts and merchandise that sell for MILLIONS, jumping off the cage and possibly hurting himself and then they lose that cash cow. So then wrestling went from 90% ring time and 10% backstage time to 90% backstage and 10% ring time.
