I have loved, loved, LOVED professional wrestling since I was 4 years old and never told anyone about it until I got to high school.  I see professional wrestling as a type of theater in-the-round (with the ring serving as the stage) that breaks the fourth wall by recognizing, catering to, and making the audience a pseudo-member of the cast. The era of wrestling matches that I enjoy watching are usually from the 1970’s, 1980’s, and early-1990’s; this is were I felt that that most matches depended more on telling stories to the audience through the flow of the match, rather than depend on a series of disjointed short spots like most wrestling matches today do. I’ve always appreciated that type of philosophy when it comes to putting a match together; old-school. I still love going to shows (huge or small scale) to this day.
