Name: Chris
Age: 20
Favourite Superstar & Why: I have a couple in all honesty.

First of all would be Triple H. I grew up during a period where the attitude era saw Wrestling at its pinnacle, sadly I was around 8 or 9 in 2000 when for me the company was thriving and at its absolute best. At that time however, despite my general lack of in depth wrestling and my struggle to see events live (2am start in the UK) I was always drawn in by the game. I've always been a 'heel' kind of fan. Heels just bring something different to the plate and IMO they give the best out of ring promo's and scenes in any wrestling show.

I absolutely adored the Mc-mahon Helmsley era, how they dominated Smackdown and Raw everyweek and how they'd tag the faces of the show along - (The Rock, Mick Foley, Stone Cold etc). I also find that I really enjot HHH's move set as well. Always been a fan of big wrestlers, 6ft4+, 250lbs+ are always a good mold for me. Still to this day (along with a lot of fans) believe that opening 6 or so months to 2000 was not only the best of the game, but was the best of 'heel' performances in the pro wresting business all together.

Secondly and strangely for me a face. Shawn Michaels. How can you not love the guy? When has this man ever, ever in his life put a bad match on? There literally is not one. Not only that, but his attire, his attitude and his match entrace (before he started getting on his knees). He kind of reminds me of a modern day Ziggler, bit of a pretty boy, show off with all the charisma and in-ring ability that could be possibly needed to make things successful. Really gutted that he has said he'l never step in the ring again after retiring as he really is one of the very best ever. It's no coincidence that my favourite 2 wrestlers have had some of their best matches with each other.

How long I've been a fan of wrestling: I've been a wrestling fan since I can remember. I first started watching as a very, very young lad in around 1999-2000. I have vague memories of being absolutely fixated and obssessed with catching highlights of Raw and Smackdown be it via Livewire or heat etc. I ended up having a bit of an accident as a youngster, breaking my next door neighbours arm whilst having a bedroom wrestling match and being at the age where mommy's orders still counted (late 2001) got completely banned from all forms of watching, playing and talking about wrestling. As ive grown up ive spent a lot of time looking over every raw and smackdown from 1999. Ive seen every single PPV and have a good idea of all the storylines and so on.

Favourite Wrestling Company: WWF by a long stretch of the imagination. Never really had a lot of exposure to any other company, bar TNA in more recent times (that being the last few months, not enough time to grasp much of a concept of times gone by within the company).

How did you find the site?: I found it simply by googling 'wrestling forums'. I've been looking for a forum in the past few months, that isn't full of idiots, isn't full of skids and isn't too big. I've checked out a couple of forums that have 200,000+ members and its just too hard to either keep up with threads and members or make a name for yourself. The forum obviously needs to be active enough to keep interest, it seems ive found myself the perfect sized forum here.

Will I be active here: Aslong as you want me to be yes. I do still have a passion for wrestling, even if my passion for the current WWE product is constantly draining ever more away.

I'll be interesting and add a few more questions.

Favourite Match?: Triple H v Shawn Michaels (Summerslam 2002).
Favourite Pay-Per-View: Wrestlemania X7.
Best Year of wrestling: 2000/2001
Favourite Title: World Heavyweight Championship
Favourite Team: The Dudley Boys
Least Favourite Team: Any of the modern era
Most Over-rated superstars: John Cena, Sheamus, Alberto Del Rio, Stone Cold, Hulk Hogan.
Most Under-Rated Talent: Test.


Anymore, feel free to PM me.
Excited to be here!
Saddlerrad.


:obama: Pretty good choice in choosing Triple H, the Helmsey-McMahon era was something that I caught pretty entertaining and it was awesome become of how they ran the show like a dictatorship. Triple H's move set is pretty good, I do think he is a great wrestler indeed, size and weight though are not something I really look for. Pretty good seeing a fan though who's watched WWE/F for a while. :eek:tunga:

Shawn Michaels is one of the best entertainers of all time, I enjoy watching him wrestle since he is a great seller and was able to put people over, I enjoyed his last match, thought it was a good way to send him off, since it was a wrestlemania match against the Undertaker.

That's cool that you like WWE, this is a WWE Forum, so you'll fit perfectly here, if you ever want to get into other wrestling companies though, whether it's Impact Wrestling, Ring of Honor, or even NJPW, there are a few members you can ask around for them, I only watch Impact Wrestling and a little bit of Ring of Honor, so it'd be better if you ask someone else about that stuff. :sad:

Same way I found this site, Google seems to lead people a lot to this website, so it's good. I completely understand and know where you're coming from when it comes to forums, I've been part of forums where it's active every second and it's impossible to keep up with threads. Also it's almost impossible to get known on those kind of forums, it's overwhelming for me. This place is very active, not that active though that you can't keep up with threads and people won't know who you are though, I'm sure I've seen every active poster here everyday and know what to expect from them. And :lol: depends what you mean by idiots, we have our random moments, but we aren't stupid when it comes to wrestling.

It's good you'll be active, and I wanted to make this as good of welcome as I can make it since I see you worked hard as fuck on your post. Welcome to WWEForums, enjoy your time here, and remember if you need anything, Farooq is here to help. DAMN!
