I'm 20 and buy all the DVDs that come out, and I watch wrestling when I can (I haven't had sky since Summerslam last year). I might buy the occasional t-shirt or summit, but I mainly just get DVD's.

I'm 23, I make it a point to see Raw, catch SmackDown when I can, watch TNA when there is nothing better to do, avoid ECW until Lashley no longer has the title (albeit I said the same thing about The Big Show), and buy merch if it has something to do with a wrestler I like.

Wrestling is for anyone who likes wrestling.
Being a wrestler myself, we have fans of all different age ranges at our shows, I don't think it's fair to paint it with a teen brush, yes it's the main demographic, but there are other fans from different age ranges |

I'm 22 (23 next month whoop!) and I try to download as many wrestling shows as possible. Think I watch every Impact! simply cos it takes less time to DL. Used to DL Raw every week, SD! whenever I felt like it and never bothered with ECW. Now I tend only to download PPVs from WWE.
I am what can be termed as a "closet" wrestling fan. Not that many people know I watch and "enjoy" it. The last T-Shirt I bought was a Nasty Boys one in what must have been the early 90s. Personally I wouldn't wear any wrestling shirts as they tend not to be the most stylish items on the market (no offence to anyone that does wear them though!) |

21 here, buy DVDs fairly regularly. Also got a good size wrestling t-shirt collection I wear proudly. Amazon.com has some really cheap shit, like an Ahmed Johnson shirt for bout 2.99 I think it was.

20, watch all wwe shows, except ppvs i have to pay for (sky sports gets us 11 free ppvs a year) and impact. I'd say wrestling shows are just like soap operas - we know its all scripted but its fun to see how entertaining / lame an episode can be

I'm gonna be 19 Tuesday and I still watch Raw everyweek, the rest when I can. As for merchandise, I buy dvds when good ones come out and I wear my Sex and Violence t-shirt in public quite often.

I'll be 20 in July, and still watch wrestling as regularly as I can. I don't buy the DVDs or PPVs, though I have bought two of the ECW DVDs that came out, and I try to order the Rumble if I'm off work.
Of course, I also plan on getting into the business...so my consistent watching is sometimes less of an interest, and more of a self-given obligation to keep up with what's going on. |

I'm 24, and watch Raw every week, sometimes catch SmackDown, barely watch ECW but keep up with all the happenings from those shows none-the-less. It's possible that it's just an impossible habit to break: I started watching in late '91/early '92. WWF Mania on a Saturday morning on Sky One, then WWF Superstars on a Saturday afternoon. Sunday, and it was Wrestling Challenge in the morning and All-American Wrestling in the afternoon. I never used to miss a show, even though a lot of the same matches were repeated throughout the shows, just with different commentary.
Like I say, now I only watch Raw religiously, and 99% of the PPVs, only because they're mostly free here in the UK. Although, I do have a subscription to Sky Sports which I only use to watch WWE, so indirectly, I guess I pay for WWE on a monthly basis. Those we do have to pay for, I used to buy regardless, but now only buy when they interest me. I haven't really bothered with the DVDs for a while... I bought a couple of the Tagged Classic PPVs from the 80s/90s recently, and bought the Ultimate Warrior DVD, but gone are the days when I had a huge VHS collection of wrestling vids. To be honest, you cannot say "wrestling is only for teens and kids" because wrestling has only been for teens and kids since Vince McMahon (ingeniously, I must add) made it that way in the mid 1980s. Wrestling used to appeal to, and cater for, a largely older audience back in the day. Plus, the continual use of "Legend" and veteran performers, in all major companies, proves that there is an older audience, familiar with these faces and with wrestling history. For example, how many "kids and teens" will really buy this new Four Horsemen DVD that has been released? Just the few who have an interest in wrestling history to the extent that they are prepared to shell out for it. The target audience there is an older audience, and unless it was predominant enough to create profit for the company, these DVDs wouldn't be getting released in the first place. |

I'm 19, watch RAW every week time-shifted, so I can usually get through it in about a half hour to an hour. I barely watch SmackDown! (but I will probably start again once Kennedy starts to really heat up) and ECW. I only now started buying PPVs because I never got PPV here before (I'm using the webcast, though). I keep up with everything televised through the internet (including TNA).
Been watching wrestling since 1996 (WCW), became a WWF fan in late-1996 and taped every RAW and SmackDown! from 1997 up until 2004 or so. I buy almost all of the big DVDs, some PPV DVDs, most games and go to shows whenever I can (only televised though, and usually PPVs). In fact, I have SummerSlam tickets and may pick up a RAW ticket for the Garden the week before. I pick up usually older merchandise whenever I can, and maybe a classics action figure here or there, and a shirt once in a blue moon. That's about it. |

I am 18 and watch RAW and download everything else and watch it on my time. There is still that hope of something exciting happening on RAW and I miss it.

I'm 24 and watch wrestling whenver I'm home. There used to be a time when I wouldn't miss a single wrestling show. Now, if I'm home I'll watch. It doesn't bother me if I miss a few shows.
I'll buy the occasional DVD, not often, but I still do. I only buy the ones I really really really want and don't pick up the ones I only kind of want (I tend to only watch them only once). I don't buy t-shirts anymore. Mainly because I stopped wearing baggy clothes a few years ago and all their clothes are big. I'm still thin, so they don't fit too well. Usually the chest and neck fit, but the rest is too loose. I don't really buy toys or anything else. I can't remember the last non dvd wrestling merchandise I bought. I'd say that right now, WWE is for kids and teens, but there are a few things for the older crowds. The WWE isn't listening to the 18-34 demographic. |

Wow.
I came back into this thread having posted earlier to ask a few questions about WWE rshirts cos the Edge tees are pretty sweet. Was gonna ask what thr sizing was like as I tend to wear a Small men's and most shirts like these tend to be pretty big...but Dorkchop already mentioned it. Do they do them in like XL Boys sizes? Also where's a decent place to buy em online in the UK? |
