Reading spoilers have never affected me in watching. If anything I want to watch it more.

When Swagger won the belt, I made sure I saw it on SD.

I try to avoid those too, even though they aren't even true many times.

I can't bring myself to not watch wrestling, even though it's sad how watered down it is now.

And besides, by the time the show airs I usually have forgotten the results of the show because I have better things to remember during the week then keep track of the results of an R-Truth, or a Michelle McCool match.
Well that's a little depressing. Chin up, boss.

Moreover, I figure even if I didn't remember a spoiler off the top of my head, there's a good chance it would come back to me as soon as the match started. I'd rather just not risk it at all.

So you don't think there's a chance that a show can play out better on television than it read on paper? That just seems like putting a lot of stock in the opinion of others, which I feel is shakey ground in the wrestling community.

But don't you feel your reaction would have been different if you didn't know it was coming?
