They aired RAWs matches followed directly by Smackdowns matches so I got a two hour block of just wrestling matches. Still separated into two shows. Key word aired. They no longer show it over here. Wrestling tends to go in periods in Sweden.

I see. I'm glad that they post the episodes on Youtube then!

haha awesome! It surprises me that people buy the game without liking the show originally but your not the first to say you did!

Haha. I thought it was TNA but I was wrong. It turned out even better! :win:

When they first started showing wrestling here I wasn't that interested, watched once or twice but never got into it. Then someone told me to play SvR 2008. At first I wasn't hooked or anything, played it for a while and forgot the game. Then I went on vacation, didn't have anything to do and ended playing it and getting addicted. By that time WWE was off TV here, and since I only had dial-up Internet, I'd visit WWE.com a lot to know what was going on and as soon as I got broadband Internet I started watching the shows on Youtube, and so on.

Austin was the reason I got into professional wrestling. Rey Mysterio was a big reason why I stayed.

I really liked Rey back in the day. Hes okay now, but nothing like he was then.

I started watching in September/October 1996 and was hooked to the NWO storyline. The fact that I thought wrestling was real at the time (I only admitted it was 'fake' in mid-1998) only made it that much more exciting. As a kid, I really hated Hogan. I then started watching WWF the night after the 1997 Royal Rumble. It was Stone Cold who mainly had me hooked to the WWF. I stopped watching WCW around 1999, and completely tuned out and stopped paying any attention to them by 2000.

I watched non-stop until about late 2005. I got burned out and stopped watching but kept up with everything happening until about the start of 2007. From 2007-2010, I paid no attention and even now, still haven't gone back and watched or educated myself on most of what happened during those years. Ever since early 2010, I've watched mainly just the PPVs and read the results. I've still only watched maybe about a combined ten episodes of Raw and SD since then. Every now and then, I'll Youtube a particular segment that sounds interesting, but I stick mainly to watching old matches and promos from the good old days nowadays.

And I haven't watched any of the old ECW except for a few matches on the Rise and Fall Of ECW DVD., nor have I watched any of ROH and very little of TNA. I'm mainly into WWF and WCW.

Same, but I was a casual kiddy fan back then. He's slowed down a bit but he's still great in the ring.

Yeah, Unfortunately we all grow older :( But he still is very cool.

I 1st started watching around 2000 as it was the cool thing at the time. Fell in love with the industry around Punk / Joe 2 in 04 as a friends older brother had it for some reason. I was a kid but was astounded at Joe's general deamenour. I've always loved people who could do things you wouldn't expect, guess it comes from always being a bigger kid. Never looked back since tbh. I enjoy the WWE at times, yet I can go stretches without watching it pretty easily but I usually watch some differing company. I enjoy pro wrestling more so than one company.
