Describe your interest in ARTS RASSLETAINMENT each year

Here's my example...

Hulkamania Era -early 90's: I used to watch the occasional Superstars show and play with those rubber figures avec blue steel cage and ring. Also used to play the Royal Rumble game on Super Nintendo. Wasn't a big fan though

1995-1998: None, didn't watch

1999: Started getting into it. Never had cable at home so I had to watch RAW at a friends' house. I was able to watch Smackdown on UPN. Was mad into The Rock. He was my favorite at THE TIME

2000: Got cable so I got the full dose. Wouldn't miss an episode. Watched religiously. At this time an old friend was a huge nWo fan and I was a WWF fan. We would drink at 'The nWo Clubhouse' (complete with nWo memoribilia, posters, and toy dolls on the walls). It was gay. I was subject to lots of old WCW footage and buddy made me get an nWo shirt

It was a drinking club type of thing. So gay.

2001-2002: Favorite time. The weed made it more interesting. Was hoping for the Invasion/nWo angles to come in FULL EFFECT, but was dissapointed. Rock was still around full-time, so that kept me watching (no homo)

2003-2005: Pretty steady watching, even though Rock was gone for most of this time. Was on THE INTERNET more during this tine so I was AWARE of things I wasn't before. Even though the product wasn't as interesting and entertaining as the 99-00 time, I would still follow it. Just like Rock was my favorite from 1999-2002, John Cena was the man I tuned into see during this time. And Rey Mysterio and Flair. Of course, the biggest thing for me happened in 2003, and that's when The Rock returned as A HEEL. My dream finally came true

2006-2008: Barely watched it. Was too busy with other things

2009-2010: Didn't watch at all

2011: Watching it again, even though I don't like the PG Era. When it comes to my favorite wrestler, CM Punk is now my 'The Rock' of this era. Seems like today it's all nostalgia or coming around full circle. I just watch because there's nothing else on, or if I'm home. It's not religiously like it was back in 2000-2002. Hopefully it picks up with this whole Punk fiasco. If Punk stays, I'm hoping this ushers a new era (similar to the Attitude Era)
