Not sure how many people on here interact with wrestlers, but this is something I've always found curious. When I used to work full-time as a reporter I'd interact with people of all walks of life. However, I don't think I've met any group of people that use hotmail as much as wrestlers. What made me think of this thread is I just saw Del Rio's Twitter and it list his hotmail address as the place to reach him at.
I'm sure it may just be in my limited experience. Maybe, Hotmail has improved or something. I remember using it way back in like the 1990s. I can't imagine it being better than gmail, but maybe I'm wrong.

I've had the same Hotmail E-Mail for a good 15 years now.
No real reason to get rid of it

My college email is through the former hotmail (now Outlook) and I have a personal email from when I had MSN but I haven't checked either in months. It is alright, not as good as Gmail but miles ahead of Yahoo (who my Verizon email is with for some reason).

I use both gmail and hotmail/outlook.
I actually prefer outlook over gmail, but they're fairly comparable for me. Its more of an aesthetics thing.
My gmail account is for emailing resumes and/or general sign-up stuff that I don't really care about.
My hotmail account is for more personal correspondance and mailing lists I actually want to get.
There is some kind of strange idea that GMail is super professional and Hotmail is skeevy and outdated.
Its just an email client though.
It also could be an age thing. A lot of people got online before Gmail was a thing and Hotmail was the gmail of its time.

I still use an AOL email address, even though I haven't had AOL for years. I do also have a gmail.

I honestly thought hotmail stopped existing years ago.

Ricardo also uses Hotmail as his booking address. Maybe they signed up at the same time I also have both hotmail and gmail, but I've had hotmail a lot longer so it's more my personal address, and gmail is for junk mail type things.

I have one of each these days. I have a hotmail account, which I use for my PayPal account, on the rare occasions I use it to pay for things. A Yahoo one for a lot of other personal stuff, and a gmail account which I set up mainly to have an email address that was my real name, for the purposes of applying for jobs and other jobseeking correspondence. I have started using it for a few other things as well, though.
my yahoo one gets a lot of junk and the other two hardly get any. I ended up using the yahoo mail when my mother or stepfather wanted to order anything online, so I wonder if that's opened the floodgates and made me get more spam than the other ones, because it's seem more use.
I have no problems with any of them, really.

I've had mine for almost 9 years, I only signed up for it because everyone I knew was using MSN Messenger and I wanted in. Even though that was taken over by Skype a few years ago I still use my hotmail as my personal address. I do wish I could change the address though as I was 14 years old when I made it.

I have a gmail account for professional purposes and a hotmail account (which I've had since I was 14) for personal purposes.
