Do you need to know your history before you can wrestle?

It amazes me how many of you said that you don't need to know it. That is completely WRONG. I can imagine a handful of people here saying that though just because they don't have the brain capacity to pack it in there, but the history is important. Granted I do not know much about it pre 80's, but it's not like there's an unending amount of information there. Not to mention, some of the wrestlers may end up in creative positions eventually, and they say that those who don't know history are doomed to repeat it. You have to know the history in order to come up with something that hasn't been done before.
