And not this sappy, pandering shit that they just opened Raw with tonight?

It's no wonder why I never tune in any more.

It's something when you go back and watch a match that you've never seen before and you can tell the difference between then and now.

People say the wrestling quality has improved, but it really hasn't. People learn their craft in the indy circuit rather than in regional promotions, so they never build an appreciation for timing or selling. Wrestling is like a card game: how and when you play the cards matters more than the cards themselves.

Of course

But at least I got New Japan to make me happy. I can just read what happens on Raw and Smackdown now and then watch (and make fun of) the PPVs

I miss Jim Ross even though I knew wrestling was fake he was good at selling it. His words still stand up after all these years when used out of context.

We knew wrestling wasn't real when Hulk Hogan and Ultimate Warrior were on top. Those guys had recuperative superpowers and the Undertaker was introduced as a legitimately supernatural foe.

They could still draw you in and make you suspend disbelief; just like an action movie or superhero movie.
