I've not watched wrestling in years, my knowledge lies in late 80's, 90's and early 00', when it was still decent.

I stopped being interested when Kendo Nagasaki was unmasked and turned out to be an ex-plumber from Halesowen.

It took a massive dip, but it's gone back to being decent again now.

I do love this arguament. Whilst its a very well known fact that wrestling is scripted, and the outcome is known, wrestling in a physical sense, is very real. These guys put their body's through hell in order to provide entertainment. Yes, the punches and kicks are not exactly full force but there is no faking falling 30 foot onto your back, or having your ear ripped clean off.

From what i catch on Social Media and the like, there doesn't seem to be that Elite division or wrestlers any more, it seems that any tom, dick or harry can get a shot at the gold.

Perhaps. Although, you do have your class of Cena, Rollins, Lesnar etc... who are above everyone else in terms of superstardom IMO.

I stopped watching WWF around 23 years ago. Most of the wrestlers in it when I watched it are dead.
Used to love it as a kid, but can't understand how adults still enjoy it.

My great aunt who was in her 80's used to love watching it on a Saturday afternoon on ITV when I was a kid, only time I have ever seen it - is Big Daddy still in it?
In terms of speculating who wins, are you actually able to bet on it taking account of the fact its all fixed?
