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.
To be fair, it's not much different to watching football these days. They all go down after never/barely being touched..

Always found it a bit odd when adults like it, each to their own I suppose

the best adult explanation I heard was 'I treat it like a soap opera, it's my EastEnders'.
Have to confess I have been to a WWF wrestling show in Birmingham as an adult. It was quite well choreographed to be honest.
anyway not for me, but each to their own.

Fair way to look at it that explanation, plenty of people get emotionally involved in soaps I guess.
Bloody loved it as kid, I was always a big Undertaker fan. Went to Wembley in 1992 for Summerslam I think it was, British Bulldog beat Bret Hart for the title
