I'd like to preface this that 2014 has been one of firsts for me. Before March 2014, I've never even watched a match. Not one- Hulk Hogan, Undertaker, etc. Never seen half a minute.

But one night I caught all these people chanting "Yes" on Raw. And I was hooked. Do I think they're a bunch of idiots? Absolutely. I was just floored at Bryan's athletic ability. They advertised the WWE Network that night and I bought it. Same hour.

Look, I know this junk is fake. Absolute malarkey. I don't even like "storylines". Don't care for it. But I do like watching guys fly around the ring. To me the most entertaining ones are Bryan, Kofi Kingston and Rey Mysterio. I'll watch any match they're involved in. Anything with Mark Henry and Big Show make me fast forward.

From my month of WWE Network, these are my random thoughts:

1. Daniel Bryan is the best full-time wrestler they've had in the past 5 years worth of PPVs.

2. I can't stand the Attitude Era. Those guys hit each other straight up in the head with chairs and they cut themselves with blood everywhere. I can't stand it. I don't like the characters, I think it was just ruffian garbage. I'm not sure whatever happened to Stone Cold, but I'm sure he deserved it.

3. I can only watch 10-15 minutes at a time but the most entertaining thing they put together is the Royal Rumble. I don't like seeing people get seriously injured or put in a position to see them hurt but I like the family friendly era that's been ushered in the past few years it seems.

4. The average wrestling fan is a complete bozo. We need a special word for these people.

5. Not one person outside this board knows I watch this crap.

6. Best match I've seen so far was the Rock-Cena in 2013 at Wrestlmania. Really really enjoyed that.

7. Randy Orton looks like a douchebag. Why do people like this guy?

8. Please tell me "Dude Love" was some sort of gay stereotype. Anything with that guy gets changed.

9. Wrestlmania in New Orleans was garbage. I'd be surprised if those people came back. Did anybody even show up past the first 10 rows? Place was dead silent.

All these strong opinions for someone that has never watched the sport?

I am 28, with a bachelors and successful. Complete opposite stereotype of the "fan".

You realize you're just basically watching Keeping Up with The Kardasians or Honey Boo Boo, right?

I don't listen to all that talking mumbo jumbo. You can't tell me some of that stuff isn't just pure athleticism and training.

I was actually in awe how they do some of that crap and keep going.

You'd be better off watching the EPL, Rugby, Cricket, Hockey etc.

Putting some vested interest into any of those would be much more rewarding IMO.

Bro, how did they not give themselves concussions on a nightly basis. Now they just hit them on the back with thin chairs.

In the late 90s, it was full metal to the skull. Unless I'm completely blind, there was no hand going up, etc. I saw Shamrock or whatever his name is take a chair straight to the face. I was like WTF.

I just don't know enough then because it looks like they actually hit each other. Their other moves weren't as polished or athletic as today's though.

Am I supposed to hate the current iteration? I'm confused.

Why because you think so

I haven't watched wrestling in probably 15 years, but if someone enjoys it there is no difference than any other form of entertainment. Here is a crazy idea, next time you see a thread about something that you aren't interested in don't click on it dumbass.
