Because it' s wrestling and it' s some of the best entertainment on TV. You either like wrestling, understand and respect the athleticism involved or donâ€™t like it. Despite being a wrestling fan for 11 years I still canâ€™t explain the appeal to a none fan but have gotten into it in such a way that Iâ€™ve started training to become a wrestler myself.

I' m not a fan but the reason I liked wrestling was because it was a whole universe surrounding it. The characters, the people outside the ring, the mythos, the drama.
And I liked the acting. Wrestling is acting and I think they are usually good actors, at least the best are. It really difficult to do what they do and make it look so nice and easy. And they don' t get hurt too often.
It requires lots of skill.

The best wrestlers are the best actors, easily. It' s not just ' acting' in how people think either. Sure it' s talking on the microphone, cutting good promos and being able to speak well but it' s acting in the matches as well. The best wrestlers are the ones who can convince you that they might be hurt or that they are really struggling to get to their feet and finish a match.

Any wrestler can do a bunch of fancy moves but the great wrestlers put all their effort into them and make them look special.

I' ve already got a wrestling name lined up. PS1, I thought it was genius. My initials are PS and the character thinks heâ€™s number one at games. My finisher is going to be called the Mega Drive

WM23 would be no exception. You either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain.
