I watch everything match to match, approaching it all individually. Then I look at the match told in ring and judge by that. Every wrestler worth his salt tells a story in the ring. RVD vs Rollins from this week's RAW being a prime example with the "grizzled" vet trying to teach the arrogant upstart a lesson. Then I add characters and outside of the ring onto that as icing on the cake. There could definitely be more characters in todays WWE. But whenever we get them they get shit on so it's a double edged sword.how's that? without any expectation?
I sometimes think I just hate wrestling but then I can put on a random PPV from 10-15 years ago and be entertained so idk. every character outside of 2-3 is the same.
I suppose I watch for character and storyline more so than wrestling. from an in ring perspective the product is fine. they just suck at giving us a reason to care about the matches
I guess it's watching independents and Japan that's "ruined" me.
