I stopped watching wrestling about 10 years ago, so the fact that Bret Hart returned....it's like he never left to me.

Anyway, back then there was the WWF and WCW.

What's TNA and RAW? I don't even know

Thank God for TNA is all I can say. They brought competition back to the industry that Vince had monopolized. I love both shows, but I must say right now I only watch TNA. It's far more entertaining and unpredictable than WWE.

I haven't watched wrestling since 1999, so I'm as clueless as you.

Basically TNA is a wrestling company on SPIKE TV that was founded by Jeff Jarret. It has superstars like Kurt Angle, Hulk Hogan, Kevin Nash, Mick Foley, Sting, and awesome newcomers like AJ Styles and Samoa Joe. WWE hasn't had competition in years so it's programming has become incredibly weak. I guess they brought back Bret Hart to compete against TNA bringing back Hulk Hogan. I'm just happy there's some actual company competition going on again finally.

Eh who cares. I haven't watched WWE in five years and when I do, it's because I'll walk past the TV and see Chris Jericho on.

WWE needs new stars. There's a reason why they called the WCW "wheelchair wrestling", it's because it was run by old people, and that's why it doesn't exist anymore. The spotlight has been on Cena, the McMahons, and The Undertaker for years now...

Then again, it's not like it has much competition. TNA's rating don't even come close to WWE's, but I guess it's better than the competition they had before, which was nothing

I've not watched any wrestling since the 90's, but I did catch some TNA recently and it was awful.

Yeah but TNA is far more entertaining to watch than WWE. All the matches on WWE have really become so rudimentary that you can really guess almost every move and every outcome. And the storylines (if this was even possible) have become even MORE ridiculously soap operish. TNA has a much more raw edge to it that harkens back to the earlier days of Raw is War and Monday Night Nitro. Plus it's far more unpredictable, and often times all hell just breaks loose with EVERYONE fighting which is great.

And like you said before, TNA has fresh faces. It isn't the same guys that have been around for years all the time.

WWE is soft now since they went pg and made it all kid friendly. I barely watch and when I do it's just to watch CM Punk on SD and Shawn Michaels on Raw. And they banned blading. I mean I guess it's more sanitary but it made it seem a little more realisitic when they did bleed. I'm getting my head pounded by a chair, but look not a mark on me...

As far as TNA goes, TNA was good in the beginning. It's terrible now. Angle, Hogan, Nash, Foley, Sting?!!?!!!! Geez cant they develop their own stars or are they gonna take disgruntled WWE guys and old WCW wrestlers. Kip James? Team 3D? How is any of this original at all? The only time I watch is when AJ styles, Chris Sabin, Samoa Joe, and sometimes when Abyss is fighting.
