About

Born in 1981 i started out as any young boy in the 80's baseball was god's gift to america, Football was pretty cool and basketball was next on my list of important things.... but one thing trumped these wonderful sports, Professional Wrestling. i remember watching avidly early on in the age of hulk hogan running wild on wwe(then wwf) I was watching through thick and through thin, the monday night wars, owen hart's death, the eddie guererro tributes, the chris benoit tribute show, the rise of tna, I have been a fan for over 20 years of professional wrestling, and i personally feel its high time the fans get back the same effort they put into making as manyshows that happen a year. my thirst for a good wrestling show is growing with every gimmick thats ressurected for nostalgic value. I am a Smark and I feel like I am at war with promoters. my opinion is venomous. I am not hard to please but I do grade the content i watch with utmost criticism. Welcome to Professional Wrestling As I See It.
