I know what you mean. See, one of my big issues is that almost all of today's wrestlers are around my age, or younger. When I was a kid, I saw the wrestlers as men, and they were like gods to me. I looked at them with much awe and respect, and there was such a mystery to them.
.....Now that I'm 27, and all grown up, it's not the same. I can't get into cheering/booing dudes that are like my peers the same way I cheered/booed for the wrestlers who were old enough to be my Dad growing up. That's why I am a mark for the old-school wrestlers today by the way and why I am very happy that they are still around. They make me feel young. But I know they cannot wrestle forever, and I also know that overall it's the young guys that are on TV more then anyone for the most part.
Anyhow, I pretty much knew as a teen that this would happen one day. Once I turned 20, that's when these feelings and thoughts began, and it's just gotten worst as I've aged.
