OT: Any of you wrestling nerds…

I don’t think there’s a single pro wrestling fan over the age of 7 who actually think it’s unscripted. People still like scripted entertainment. It’s not really different than liking any other TV show.
Yeah. They are all scripted including the reality shows. I liked Survivor when it first came out. I actually thought it was reality for a couple of years. Now I realize that not even the CBS news is reality. It's all scripted for an agenda
Don’t tell anyone from Memphis that it’s not real…
Territory days really are the best for me. I suppose that's why we only go to the local stuff now. Yes, I do.
As a kid, I use to make my dad take me to the cooks convention center. He hated it.
Channel 5 on a Saturday morning was hard to beat.
My wife is from Oklahoma and laughs when I show her old CWA/USWA clips and point out that one of the play by play guys is also the local weatherman.
I wonder what ever happened to that blonde jobber getting beat on by Superstar Bill Dundee…
My 6 year old 30 seconds into his first wrestling match a few weeks ago delivered the same treatment to his opponent...
Mississippi is the only stage in the union that doesn’t have Amateur wrestling. That needs to change
My nephew wrestled in the Oklahoma state championships this last weekend. They use something extremely close to the opening statue for their trophies.
Isn't it ancient Olympics wrestling?
I've heard Jerry Jarrett had one and a second went to a collector that runs a memorabilia shop in Indiana. I have not been, but did buy some mempho wrasslin stuff from them a few years back.
My little guy slapping the kid in the Gif went 6-0 in the state tournament with 5 falls and won the state championship... He got a sweet belt.

Folk style wrestling is a great sport and probably the best martial art for a youngster. Pretty tough to bully a kid who wrestles.
That's awesome, congrats! Now, you need to get the little champ some associated mat-entrance attire to go with that killer slap:
Indeed. The 6 year old was born to wrestle. He is still learning, but his fight or flight dial has always been pegged out on fight. He just started wrestling this fall and demolished kids with 30+ matches under their belt... won his semifinal match in 11 seconds. That kid will never get bullied, we just have to make sure he isn't the bully.
His older brother is a much sweeter kid. Wrestling has given him a new level of self confidence and toughness. This was his first year of wrestling and he placed 4th at state in the 10u division.
They're both extremely better for it and yes, they would beat the shìt out of normal kids their age if it came down to it.
It’s really good for kids, gives them confidence. my son was 7-8 years old, shy kid and had a kid in soccer who throwing him around a little too often so I put him in wrestling. Well after 7-8 years in wrestling he’s about 230 now and I promise you wouldn’t want to try to throw him around now.
Just saw that one of the original 4 horsemen (Ole Anderson) has passed away..........Ole Anderson, Arn Anderson, Tully Blanchard and Ric Flair.........Used to hate them on GCW and WCW back in the day.......I always thought Ole and Arn were brothers but they weren't......
I didn't trust social media or youtube or some random notification not to spoil it. Plus it was kind of fun to wake up at odd hours. It took place in Perth, Australia.
