I became a fan thanks to Smackdown 2. Glad I'm not the only one.

I became a fan because of my Older Neighbor. When I was but a wee lad we'd always wrestle and such, and he'd always Jackknife Powerbomb me into the couch and put me in the Sharpshooter and all that fun stuff. One day he just turned it on for me and showed me the wrestling on TV, basically what he was always watching, and I was hooked INSTANTLY
Have been ever since, especially when I got into the Independent Circuit.

And do you experience feelings of dread in your basement or attic?

I know a lot of kids growing up that became fans because they played wrestling games and wanted to know who the characters were.

My brother got into wrestling by reading some back issues of WWF Magazine at a friend's house, and then I got into it by watching it with him.

So basically, video games lead to wrestling fans? Well while playing Smackdown :HCTP I went like "I wish there was something like this in real life" then I was scrolling thru tv matches and saw a random match on Raw and I couldn't believe my eyes "OMG IT'S REAL " well of course I also found out soon it wasn't exactly "real"

When I initially got into wrestling, I honestly have no clue why. My Dad used to try and get me to watch WCW with him, but I never cared enough. Just turned it on one day and lost my mind that Triple H was coming back, despite not knowing who he was.
After getting out of wrestling in 2004 (after my favorite guy, Lesnar, left), I purchased Day of Reckoning for the Gamecube and remembered most of the guys and out of curiosity I started watching again in 2006. Haven't stopped since.
