>why does a industry run by carnies, filled with performers who have personality defects and watched mainly by low-income lemmings get such a bad reputation?
The mind boggles.
Unironically blame Vince. It’s his fault wrestling is fucked in America.
because wrestling is no longer popular in america so its ok to mock it. and its no longer popular because its marketed entirely to a niche audience of smarks, who only want matches. the american audience had always mocked the fake wrestling match aspect and tuned in for the storylines/theatrics.
>American audiences broke MSG records paying to see Bruno Sammartino for the storylines
Why are ya talking about something ya clearly know nothing about?
Because wrestling is full of no-dimes numale shitters and everyone knows it now.
other cultures/countries have not cucked themselves to the degree america has diluting pro wrestling to pointlessness.
Probably because it is presented as a sport still despite having no legitimacy at this point. In other cultures it is just theatrics, that or people think the wrestlers are actual badasses. What do they expect people watching real sport will think about a fake one ran by comic nerds?
Wrestling is mocked everywhere except Japan. In europe it's laughed at as the dumbest thing ever.
This.
Because the industry itself doesn't treat it with any dignity so why should the media? It also has no cultural significance like in Japan or especially in Mexico.
If you want to know what people in Anerica think about wrestling look at how sitcoms make fun it. They typically poke fun at the audience for being southern/stupid enough to think it's real, the wrestlers for having some goofy personality, and the horrible storylines. When people find out that I like wrestling the general reaction is "don't you know it's fake?" Aka you have to be retarded to like this. These are typically people who watched when they were kids, but grew out of it.
>tfw ywn have a bi threesome with Yujiro and Pieter
I would unironically fuck Yujiro he looks like he really knows how to show someone a good time
imagine getting this worked up by some former sports guy not liking your sport. are they going to throw this same fit every single fucking time an athlete trashes their sport?
unbelievable how stupid this reply is.
based
This kinda shit happens all the time, it's because Americans are so self invested in their normie shit.
Ever seen a Football (Europe) player getting interviewed on American TV? Exact same shit.
>its no longer popular because its marketed entirely to a niche audience of smarks
What absolute shit. WWE is mocked becauses it's marketed entirely to KIDS you fucking idiot. There's a time and place to blame Smarks, this isn't it. Daddy Vince going PG and pushing his cartoon angles has ruined the reputation.
The problem is compounded by the attitude of so many on thr indies though. They want to go out to the ring and do silly shit to pop themselves, the boys, or "smart" marks but then turn around and act like what they do is art. You can't have it both ways.
cringe
Because Americuck wrestling is dying and irrelevant so nobody bothers to respect it.
Because yuropenis are fags
