Come on, admit it.  You'll still watch the next show, right? Personaly i'm not sure yet. I look at this roster and think, these guys can still give me great matchs on a regular basis or they have the potential to. Still I can't believe a promotion can screw up so many times with such a roster. How hard can it be? All they have to do is pick their 20 best wrestlers, make 8 or 9 matchs and let them wrestle, show us what they can do. If they could only just do that, I would give them my 35 bucks every month. |

I'll still stick around, but I've been done giving companies my hard earned bucks for crappy PPV's since the early 00's. Until the E or TNA does something as horrid as the necrophilia angle again, I'm back for a while.

Not watching a single TNA-related thing until Hogan is gone, Bischoff is gone and Dixie Carter hands control of her company over to someone who knows how to run a wrestling company.

I didn't watch this week RAW, so take it from there. Though I like ROH & TNA more than the E, so we'll see.....

Even in my most angriest moment, I knew I wasn't done watching it. Its just too hard. Besides being a huge wrestling fan in general, its now a habit too. So no, I'm not gone. And I honestly can't think of a single thing TNA could do that would change that.
. . . But sometimes I feel like they just keep trying.

I've been in and out with Raw, Smackdown, and Impact all together. I'll never be "done", I'll always follow it, but my desire to physically sit and watch these shows are starting to dwindle.

The question is, as a wrestling fan, how can you just stop watching wrestling? I've stopped watching the WWE for a while now but stop watching wrestling itself altogether.....? |

I wasn't terribly invested in TNA to begin with this time, just kinda peeked back in because I heard Roode was getting a great push, and I've been given no impetus to keep watching. So, yeah, unless something AMAZING happens, pretty much done here.

If I didn't have a DVR I would be done. But it tapes and sits in my face.
They're not getting money out of me for a long time. They've gotten $120 from me, and the money for Destination X is the only one that didn't piss me off. Count me as an internet nerd that doesn't give you money Bisch, I want to, but I feel like I'm gettingit stolen.

Haven't actually watched the show in well over a year, but I still pop in here just for random updates.
Apparently I'm not missing anything.

I'll still watch the ppvs for free but probably won't watch the tv unless it's a Tessmacher match or something. So basically, nothing has changed.

Haven't watched for a month and a half and can't say I miss it at all. I got sick of horrible story lines I could care less about. The super pushes of guys like Gunner and Crimson out of nowhere over people who deserve it a hell of a lot more and mostly the disgrace that is mentally retarded Sting. After reading the BFG results, I see I'm not missing much and nothings really changed.

rabid wrestling fan from the late 80s/early 90s until 2002 or so, when I pretty much stopped and started following it loosely over the next seven years until 09, when I began watching Raw, again, pretty regularly. Was extremely disappointed by Jan 4 2010's Impact and pretty much the entire year that followed. This year hasn't been as bad as 10, but this BFG has been a real slap in the face, sign that they still don't get it and never will. I also followed TNA loosely over the decade of the 00s. Catching random Impacts, here and there, and even when it was better around 06 or so, it still gave me no real reason to love wrestling like i used to. They've never been any kind of alternative.
ROH is too hard to try and find and follow. They're supposed to be on MYNetwork tv in my area, but i can never find the time they're on, or they're just not on in my town. Replaced by reruns of Always Sunny, or Seinfield, or Cheaters, or Maury, or some movie. who knows.
WWE kept my interest pretty well with a love/hate thing for a couple years now upon my return to being a wrestling fan. Coming back and hating new DXs parody of the once great old DX, and my venom for the overload of Hornswoggle and Super Cena, at the time. Marked out like hell during the Summers of Nexus and Punk. Really let down by the collapse of those in the Fall of both this year and last. This conspiracy angle could keep me around, but I'm finding that I've been watching Raw less and less. Forgetting that it's even on. Just like I did with BFG, last night. Should have realized it was. And didn't. I remember anticipating Hogan/Sting Starrcade 97 with such a passion. Now it's just sad to think of them hobbling around the ring. Luckily, I must have not given enough of a s*** to let it bother me this year.
Which is a bad sign. I seriously might disappear as a wrestling fan for even longer than my seven year absence. It might become a relic of my past that I look back on and think of how young I was and get a good chuckle or misty eyed remembering. The good ole days. Sting and Flair at Clash of the Champions. The Road Warriors squash matches. Steiners throwing chumps around the ring. WWF Superstars jobbers getting put in bodybags by Taker. All the interview sets. Survivor Series and other ppvs up to the screw job beginning of the Attitude Era. All the wild arenas and tv episodes during that time. Austin McMahon. The Outsiders invading WCW.... on and on
wrestling doesn't want to evolve. it wants to stay static. complacent. keeps shooting itself in the foot before anything can happen. even if it could. maybe time has passed it, us, the sport by. or maybe i'm just old and this isn't for me anymore.

I'm basically done with wrestling altogether.
I've got some old WWF tapes, as well as a mix of older NWA, AWA, and some puro I can get my hands on, and I'll stick with those now and then.
