I started watching wrestling when I was but a wee lad, which translates to about 1988 or so. I watched on and off until the Attitude Era, when I began watching on a more frequent basis (that goes for pretty much everybody). I stopped watching again in 2001 when things started to get shitty. Started watching again at the beginning of 2006.
My favorite workers today mostly come from Ring of Honor, as that is my favorite product. Bryan Danielson, Colt Cabana, Homicide, The Briscoe Brothers, just to name a few. From the WWE side I'd go with HBK, Triple H, CM Punk, and Edge. TNA breaks my balls for the most part.
Favorite all-time wreslters? Chris Jericho, Mick Foley, Triple H, and Ric Flair. Those would probably be my main men.
I don't like much about WWE right now. There are a few glimmers of hope, but for the most part I just can't get into it. Too much focus on Superman pushes and the faces always getting the better of the heels. There's very little drama, and everything is so predictable. Plus, the in-ring work is secondary witch saddens me. I know it's sports entertainment, but come on. Entertain me in the ring, for God's sake. There's very little to like about TNA either, except for individual workers. ROH is my favorite because they tear the house down with amazing wrestling, and usually put on solid storylines to boot. I really don't know how to explain what I like about it outside of that what they offer is what appeals to me.
Favorite all-time match is a hard one to choose. For sheer mark out factor, I'd go with Undertaker-Mankind HiaC. Typical, but I love that match. HBK vs. Razor Ramon Ladder match would also be up there. Low Ki vs. KENTA for the GHC Junior Heavyweight Title, The Second City Saints vs. the Briscoe Brothers for the ROH Tag Titles, and CM Punk vs. Samoa Joe II all get honorable mentions.
I have no idea what my favorite PPV is.
