I like the fact that on forums such as this i can throw in my two cents on the state of the industry which leads to far more interesting discussions about wrestling. Where as before i came on the internet talking to friends about wrestling went little beyond who was your favourite? or what did you think of that match?

Or perhaps 2-3 hour discussions on how HHH is ruining the buisness

In fact i take back what i said earlier, most marks i meet think HHH really is god, i don't want to go back to that dark, dark place.

I'm not a mark, but I like HHH.

It has it's advantages knowing more about the business and the people invovled. I can now really appreciate a good match and a good angle. BTW someone said something about Matt Morgan in a critical way and I just wanted to say that I'm enjoying his stuff at the moment.

My new gimmick tells my feelings on the Triple H situation.

I enjoy being a "smark" just as much really. I still get all excited about upcoming P.P.V's, and I still 'mark out'. But I can appreciate who's a good wrestler and who's not, and know about backstage antics. Which is a good thing I guess because I wouldn't want to cheer for a complete asshole.

The only time when being a smark sucks for me is when it takes the mystery out of who will win a match. When I know so-and-so is going to have surgery after a PPV, you pretty much know they are going to lose and that there will be some angle to "take him out". Going in blind in those types of situations would be fun.

I do love when matches happen that can make you forget and become a mark again. Sting vs Flair final Nitro. Shawn Michaels vs. Jericho. Hogan vs. Rock. All of them I managed to get into and enjoy without thinking that Hogan and Flair were too old. Shawn was holding down Jericho by refusing to job. Etc....

It's easy to avoid spoilers though.

Most of these are appropriately marked.

BEsides, it's not like wrestling is hard to predict.
