none. I haven't watched that since I was 13. I can't stand the WWE, they ruined all my childhood memories of ECW. I did watch the two One Night Stands though, which were kickass. I catch RoH every once and awhile, but that's it
The last time I watched WWE was the RAW after WM last year. The one where Flair retired. Since then, I've watched nothing but TNA and UFC.Invisible_Kid2
So instead of watching this... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aU9M3ECP61Q You are now watching this... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pA4D9-r7JWg ???
Saying you don't watch wrestling because it's fake is a very weak argument. Most TV shows and movies are fake, but people still watch them for the entertainment factor.
Wrestling has been awful for years. I always knew it was fake, but I sort of thought of it like I do the Harlem Globetrotters or a magician show. Fake, but still fun to watch because they're doing things normal people can't. But since the WWF bough out WCW and ECW, it's gone to crap. They used to have to compete for the attention of wrestling fans. Twelve year old boys, drunk guys, and rednecks (being a redneck myself, I use the term with pride). But since they now have a basic monopoly on the market, they're trying to attract new demographics and the quality of the product has suffered. Don't bring up TNA, because their ratings are literally at a 1.0 or a 1.1 most of the time. But anyway, now WWE is trying to attract new fans. House wives (hence the added soap opera segments) and young, black males (hence the influx of "gangsta" personalities, including but not limited to Cena). They're forgetting about the core base. The core base wants to see a huge guy hit another huge guy in the face with a chair, he doesn't. The core base doesn't want to see people talk about their feelings or try to rap. Four things after WCW went down killed the WWF. 1. The Draft. Separating the rosters was dumb. I know the rosters were getting too large, but it was lame. 2. Changing the name to WWE. I know the World Wildlife Foundation got mad at them, but WWE just doesn't sound right. 3. John Cena coming into the fold. He represents everything that is wrong with the world. 4. Letting big name guys like Booker T, Sting, Mick Foley, Kurt Angle, Kevin Nash, Scott Steiner, Hulk Hogan, and Goldberg either get away to TNA or sit at home.

Haven't watched it in ages but may start watching again if Christian makes some sort of impact - he was worth watching back in the day. Also, I'd be interested if they stopped screwing with Chris Jericho's character.
I was at work the other night and went up to the break room when I was on my break, and Smackdown was on on the TV. There were 2 guys talking to each other, I think it was Cane and Edge, and Edge's wife or someone was there, and Cane was telling Edge how he was going to beat him and all, and Edge was trying to get his wife to make Cane stop. :| Then 2 other guys started wrestling. Do people still believe this stuff is real? I pity anyone that does.

Only backwoods rednecks and little kids think that it isn't scripted. Most people who watch it know that it's scripted, much like any other TV show.

I still watch it, Not as much as I used to though. It is starting to bore me with going to PG. Only things that still make me watch it is wrestlemania and ECW one night stand. [spoiler] Christian is back YEA! [/spoiler]
Asking wrestling fans how they can enjoy wrestling even though they know it's fake is like asking horror fans how they can enjoy horror movies even though they know it's fake......
And to Rockguy92's question, I'll be watching NWO. My prediction is either Triple H or Jeff Hardy will win.
I usually only watch Raw, though I really only catch the last hour since 24 is on at 9:00. There's no way I'm missing that show. And I'll agree with some people here and say that it's definitely lost a lot of it's luster. Go back 5-8 years and it was pretty entertaining. Now, a lot of it feels tired, and worn out, sadly. With so many good entertainers that've left/been let go, they just haven't been able to recapture a lot of that former glory. Maybe I just get nostalgic a lot when I watch it now, but whatever. I think they need to stop having John Cena be some kind of Superman/savior everytime he's in there, or comes back from an injury. They need to push some of their other talent, give other guys a chance to break through.

UGH dam it why is Mike Knox in the freaking ECAs long as Cena doesn't win, I'm good.
I watch raw mainly. Once Shawn Michaels retires though I will probably stop watching unless they stop this PG crap they are now doing and go back to trying to get 18-35 year old males with another Attitude Era. I am just captivated by the stuff these guys do while minimizing injury to the other guy plus the toll the put on their lives with their 300+ day a year schedule just makes me respect the dedication and practice it takes.
