What I will say is that your position does sound a little defeatist. "You may as well enjoy it." There's a part of me that admires your optimism and resourcefulness with that. Sincerely. But there's another part of me that doesn't get why you'd subject yourself to something you clearly don't enjoy -- not trying to twist your words. I'm not saying that as a slam, because I look back over the years of wrestling I have consumed, and think about the high points and it makes me shudder to think how long it may have actually been since I enjoyed the WWE product for a sustained period of time -- I can relate more than anything -- but seeing the point made, I do think there is a perfectly sane "But why?" response to what you just said.
I mean I don't watch much. But Jinder as champ is better than Orton or Reigns as champ. It's not great, but sadly enough, it's an improvement.
