The music I like is mostly pop and country. My favorites now are Maroon 5, Michael Buble, Nickelback and The Goo Goo Dolls. As far as fashion, can't say I've ever been a follower of what's in style or popular. I do weight train, but mainly to stay healthy and stay strong. Although I'd be lying if I said watching wrestling didn't have some influence on that. I don't know if you could classify me as a mainstream or typical fan, but I've never cared much about what others think. I do the things I do b/c they are fun and I enjoy it... |

2012... Zombie Apocalypse. Mark my words....
![]() ![]() To more accurately answer your questions... I am a married 30 year old father of two boys. I have an awesome career in the communications field. I am into metal. I watch Dexter, Family guy, Top Shot (and just about anything else on the History Channel). Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope is by far my favorite movie. I am not that concerned with fashion. However I do try to not look like an idiot, but mainly wear nothing but cargo shorts and T-shirts on my days off. I am hygienic. I hunt. I fish. I am into cars. I am into video games. I have watched wrasslin' since I was a child. My fondest memories are sitting on my granddad's knee watching "Saturday Night Main Event" |

Gore Vidal, fine cognac and hand-rolled cuban cigars. As, I presume, most wrestling fans enjoy.

Music: Largely metal, ambient electronica, hindustani classical and the occasional pop; Also play bass in a hardcore punk band; I watch quite a lot of concert vids & DVDs when i get the chance to
TV Shows: I work at a business news channel, so i don't really end up watching a lot of regular TV Programming. What i do watch is generally what i download - so apart from wrestling, its all-time-greats like the IT Crowd, Street Hawk, Bodyline, Simpsons, That 70s Show; Don't enjoy trashy reality TV, and love shows where food plays an important part (so anything from Anthony Bourdain & Gordon Ramsay to Nigella Lawson & even Masterchef) Fashion: At work, i stick to jeans and shirts / polo t-shirts. When i'm not at work, i'm generally in band/graphic tees & heavy shorts. I don't train/gym. At all. But then again, with the running around i do daily thanks to the commute and at work, i'm not overweight. Just not toned. |

Music...well, I don't know how to describe my taste. I've gotten into bands like From First to Last, Chiodos, D.R.U.G.S, The Used, and others over the past year or so. Also enjoy the occassional official film score, or rap, depending on my mood. Don't really follow fashion. I like wearing button ups with and matching a hat to the solid colored t shirt I wear under the button up. I always go out of my way to look atleast presentable. Even when I'm hitting up 7-11, I match my t shirt, basketball shorts and hats accordingly. Always shaven, always with a clean haircut. Always with clean shoes. I even match when I go to the gym. I'm a huge Nike whore. I only own Nike shoes, sans a pair of shoes the gf got me for Christmas. Baseball is my truest passion. That's the one thing in life that I have maintained my fandom for. I like weight lifting when I get around to doing it consistently. I originally got into it because I wanted to look like a pro wrestler. When I started playing baseball in HS, I noticed working out greatly accentuated my skill set, so I stuck with it for years. I love weight lifting and wish I was more dedicated. How'd I do, XL? |

Porno, walmart, porno with walmart employees. Mr Pibb soda, Dr. Pepper is too educated and snooty. Pork rinds and bean dip. Hillbilly Handfishin' and huntin. I like rasslin message boards. Bubba the love sponge and michael savage. And other things that totally rule.

In addition to wrestling, I also love watching sports. Football is primary, college and NFL, pro hockey, and college basketball are my other two faves.
I think because I work in the music/record industry, a lot of my other interests revolve around work, the music/entertainment/media or technology industries. In terms of music, I really have quite a diverse taste, country, rock, pop, metal, punk, etc, pretty much anything other than techno, club music or rap, but still on a case by case basis I guess. I also hit the gym pretty heavy, at least 3-5 times a week. Also, I love to fish and go out on the boat during the summer. I love to cook and barbeque too. Video games and drinking are also high up on the list. I do like to follow politics too, as infuriating/frustrating as it is sometimes. |

Mostly to Randy Orton, MIRITE?
To be fair withthis whole question thing, even i was surprised when people asked who Snooki was. Even I know who she is, and I don't really follow anything particularly mainstream. I don't avoid it, but I don't watch Jackoff Shore and I don't care about celebrity news. What does not surprise me, honestly, is that people didn't know who Pitbull was. I had to Google him to find out I knew songs he did. I'm bettng that a ot of people who didn't know him by name or appearance would be like "oh, yeah, I heard that." Because I live in the Whitest State in the US, and we STILL get rap up here. Seriously, Montana calls us crackers. This one doesn't surprise me, as I already said, because he really doesn't strike me as a guy with a lot of name recognition. Maybe I'm wrong. I don't go out of my way to follow pop culture, but judging from everything I saw online, he's hardly the brand name some of these other fuckers are. I think WWE's more out of touch with pop culture than the fans are, generally speaking. Though my tastes are hardly ones to judge the collective by. |

On top of that I've never considered myself a "typical wrestling fan", but then I wondered...what is the typical fan? I guess if I had to take a shot in the dark at an average, most here would be into "rock" music, definately something that isn't "mainstream" or "commercial". And that would play into what clothes they would wear (band shirts). But I was just intrigued by what makes a wrestling fan tick. Then you have the Snooki/Pitbull/mainstream celebs issue. There were a lot of guys that hosted Raw that I didn't know becuase they were US sports players but for the most part I knew most of them. That isn't because I follow the mainstream media particularly but because I am aware of it. It's there and I wondered how people don't just take on board who these (minor) celebs are. |

I was just coming to this.
I'm a 27 year old from England living near Birmingham (that's not in London ).Music: I used to be into rap/hip hop quite heavily when I was at Uni but now I don't have the time to "seek" out stuff that isn't commercial. So, my music "taste" is made up of stuff I hear on the radio. I still like rap, RnB, rock amd I guess pop. All commecial/mainstream though. On top of that I do listen to older bands like The Jam, Small Faces, Ocean Colour Scene, etc. TV/Movies: Big fan of TV shows and movies...when I get the chance to go. Was a huge fan of X Files, LOST and Oz when they were on. Doctor Who/Torchwood, Peep Show, How I Met Your Mother, Big Bang Theory are the shows I catch on a regular basis at the moment. As for films, I do like the old comic book movies and have "an interest" in comics in general - but I don't read them. Can't abide normal Action Movies though. Some of my favourite movies are Donnie Darko, Amrerican Psycho, Anchorman but my top pick is 12 Angry Men (go watch it NOW if you haven't already). Fashion: I don't follow fashion per se, but I'd say I am "fashionable". I pick up the bits of fashion that I like, I don't wear stuff because it's "on trend". Pretty much a jeans and t-shirt/shirt guy to varying degrees of smartness depending on the occasion. I have tattoos, which I guess are fashionable right now. But once again, I didn't get these done because they're "on trend". Hobbies: I try to go to the gym to stay in shape, not really into heavy lifting mainly because I don't have time. I have an XBox 360 that I rarely play so I wouldn't say I'm into gaming much anymore. Used to be big on going out at the weekend and getting wasted (alcohol only) but that's virtually stopped since I started working nights. And working nights means I don't have all that much time for hobbies anymore .

I'd say the Internet "Wrestling Fan" stereotype is largely an Internet geek stereotype. Applies, or can be applied to the entire online community, rather than just wrestling fanboys. I'm including social & MMORPG games as well. Think movies (Die Hard 4), TV (Southpark - The World Of Warcraft episode), and you get the idea.

I enjoy video games, but can't spend more than an hour or so at a time playing them. Music-wise is mostly mainstream punk and 80s hair metal. I enjoy baseball, coach high school ball in the summer, and playing golf. I hate watching golf on tv though. Some tv shows I enjoy watching are Dexter, South Park, The League, Community, and Arrested Development. Wrestling though is the only show in which I try to watch live every time. Don't really have a movie preference, I'll watch whatever is out. My all-time favorite is probably Coming to America.
