It’s magic. It’s waking up on Christmas morning when you were five. It’s seeing your favorite person after months apart. It’s profession wrestling. It’s every good feeling in life wrapped up into one.
So explain to me how we’re right in the middle of a huge wrestling weekend. Two pay-per-views for two different companies, independent shows a plenty, all the wrestling a fan could possible want and yet, the complaints and negativity is still loud enough to drown out the excitement of this weekend.
AEW has fifteen total matches on the All Out card.
WWE is hosting a huge premium live event from Europe.
By the time this weekend is over GCW will have ran four shows in three days.
This weekend should be a wrestling fans biggest dream! Even if you aren’t excited for one show or one match there’s a hundred different matches this weekend to sink your teeth into. And that’s the beauty of it. You don’t have to complain. You aren’t restricted to only watching one promotion. All of this wrestling is out for public viewing. You can watch all of it or some of it (or none of it if you’re going to be that negative!!). When did wrestling fans lose the magic? This has to be the most exciting time in wrestling history. THERE IS SO MUCH HAPPENING ALL OF THE TIME. I can’t imagine my heart being any fuller. I can’t imagine spending this time complaining. How stupid is that? I have loved wrestling for a very long time. I started watching in 2014 and never looked back. So much has changed since then. The landscape is completely different. And today? I love wrestling more than ever. But again I question how can you not? You call yourself a professional wrestling fan. You watch your weekly shows, you have your favorite wrestlers. But instead of enjoying this time in wrestling while we have it, you go online and you hit your little keyboard and you pledge your allegiance to a specific wrestling promotion and then proceed to do nothing, nothing, but whine about what a different company is doing and how much you hate on it. You call yourself a professional wrestling fan, but you diminish and harass the fans who are actively trying to enjoy the product.
I couldn’t love this shit any more than I do. I’ll never be more excited than I am in this very moment, in this very time period. I promise you it’s much more fun this way. Seeing people crying tears of joy during Kenny Omega’s return (Haley and Kiley thank you for that energy) and deciding yourself to also jump up and down and scream is much more enjoyable than saying he’s the worst wrestler in the world. Deciding to be so excited you can’t sit still for Jon Moxley vs CM Punk will make the match a thousand times better than it would be if you kept focusing on their Dynamite match. Picking out things from WWE you do like and zoning in on those things instead of ranting about how “unwatchable” the product is will have you sitting on your couch every Monday waiting for Raw to start. Holding onto positive energy and feeding into the excitement of others makes every match feel like a dream match, every promo so real, and every wrestler the best wrestler in the world. Try it sometime, you might just fall in love with wrestling.
