Wrestling is past its prime. Seriously, the golden era is long over, the art of "wrasslin", the promo and interview is long dead, and the fact of the matter is, the new guys are not in the same class as our beloved WWF superstars. Come on, guys like Orton and Cena don't have the magic of Undertaker, HBK, Flair, Piper, and Steamboat. Can you really blame WWE for depending on the veterans and legends.

Once the last of the WWF Superstars are gone (like HBK and Undertaker), I'll be done with wrestling for good (except for watching old stuff on youtube once in a while). I haven't followed it closely since Hogan's last run ended. I hate to say that being a fan isn't "4-life". WWE can see this, they are retooling to be kid friendly so that they can grow a new audience for a new generation of wrestlers. Those of us in our late 20's who grew up with WWF after Saturday morning cartoons are moving on, but WWE can still get a few dollars outta us with awesome moments like Undertaker-HBK @ WM25 before we retire with them.
