Does it annoy you when new fans act smart when they don't know anything outside of WWE?

Question

I came across a question and I read this answer that said "WWE is better because what the hell in TNA?". And the guy/kid (I'm guessing kid) was actually serious. Like wake up, there's a computer in your face and you still don't know crap about the pro wrestling industry outside of WWE? Pathetic. What do you guys think of newer fans that act like WWE is and was the only wrestling company that ever existed? I also laugh at fans that say "wwe is fake plus nobody wanted _____ to win" (I'm looking at you mr. 24 thumbs down).. If you're a wrestling fan how do you not tell the difference from fake and scripted? Do you think that the wrestlers go out there and script out every single move? Its rediculous like there is a freaking computer in your face you can literally do research and learn about the entire pro wrestling industry yet they don't know crap about what they're watching. I want your guys opinions on people like that.

Answer 1

Well alot of todays fans are hooked on one promotion either it has something to do with loyalty of being a long time fan of wwe or they are newbies that growup during the time their was nothing but wwe and automatically assume that it is the only promotion in existence. Amazing there is some people out there that think wwe invented everything like the time when tna switched from the 6 sided ring to the traditional 4 side ring everyone was like OMG tna copies wwe again by switching to a 4 sided ring lol. I also remember the old tna ramp i seen alot of people complain about how stupid it was to have a ramp...even tho most of them claimed to be fans of the original ECW but if they knew ECW at all they would know that there was alot awesome moments that occured on the ramp way yet it was stupid for tna to have a ramp. But the fact is alot of fans just don't give a damn about wrestling outside of wwe they are wwe marks that refuse to watch anything else besides wwe which is sad because they are missing out on alot of good wrestling. Last thing im gonna say is i find it funny how many say tna is becoming wcw but they prob have not ever seen a wcw match ever sure their are similarities but i don't see how that is a bad thing because wcw was awesome i actually enjoyed the wcw product more then the wwf product even way before the attitude era because plain and simple wcw had the best wrestlers in the world and probally the only promotion you'll ever see a guy like Billy Kidman pull off the biggest win of his career by covering the shoulders of the legendary Hulk Hogan for 1 2 3. Just because wcw had a bad last few years before they were forced to close down doesn't mean they were a horrible promotion because they were one of the best and if it wasn't for them vince mcmahon would have never got desperate and started the whole attitude era. So if tna becomes another wcw then im all for it just as long as they don't make the same mistake that forced wcw to go out of business. I still watch wwe and i like it but i can never stick to just that one promotion. Its ok if people chooses to watch wwe only that is there choice and you gotta respect it but never bash another promotion just because its not wwe. lol alot of this has nothing to do with the question but i always feel the need to tell that story.

Answer 2

Yeah, those people are... blah. It's like that with everything, not just wrestling. I remember when I read The Hunger Games a month after the first book launched, and now my friend believes she's a know-it-all after reading it in March.



People are people, you can't change them. Mostly all wrestling matches are scripted, WWE, TNA, and others. It's for entertainment purposes, but they're written in a way to seem like it's real, like how I believe every title win and pin-fall just happens on it's own. Thinking it's scripted while watching it on TV or Live just ruins the fun and makes you want to stop watching it.



Truthfully, I like WWE better. I watched it when I was in diapers when my older brother watched it. I really just started to watch it every week again 3 years ago. I like the feuds, and I think it's more entertaining. I'm not the biggest fan of Cena like 99.9% of the WWE Universe, and I do think The Miz should still be Champ. The reason most people like it is because it's been around for a hell of a lot longer then TNA, and when you see the superstars, you think, "Yep, that's Randy Orton, son of Cowboy Bob Orton", or "Look, it's Alex Riley, stupid as he is useless!" or, "Hey, look, half of Michael McGillicutty's ***-cheek actually LOOKS normal!"



TL;DR: You can't change a person's opinion. I've watched both WWE and TNA, and I enjoy WWE more.

Answer 3

i do agree with you, most every question is something so obvious that the answer can be found in 5 seconds with very little research, most users don't go back any further than a year or two at the most they don't even have much knowledge of early wwe wwf wwwf almost no awa nwa and how many times will someone ask if wrestling is real or fake i mean come on who cares just enjoy it or not don't get me wrong its always good to get new wrestling fans but i think they should do a little research and learn some wrestling history they don't know what they are missing

Answer 4

just because someone is a big wwe fan you assume they are a kid? but anyways you do have a point though people just pick wwe over other promotions. i don't really like tna like that but i still watch it here and there. i prefer wwe because i have been a fan of it for so long. does that mean i'm some wwe die hard fan? no it doesn't because i do watch a little tna and a little ROH and i do know the difference between being a entertainer and a real wrestler. but like i said there are people who don't even give other promotions a chance and they say wwe is the best and have the best wrestlers without any other observations. but at the same time you shouldn't assume every wwe fan is a kid.

Answer 5

I've met tons online.



They're just ignorant and don't want to accept there is more to wrestling than WWE.. they're not prepared to give other companies a chance because they're afraid they might like it better. Face the facts that WWE is lame (as of now!)

I'd actually rather watch TNA than see some fool talking bout lil Jimmy..?

Answer 6

I thought you were retiring?



To the question

Yes it does a lot like when fan boys or fan girls talk about how they love Orton or Cena they like them because of their looks not their terrible wrestling skills, So you are 100% right with what you say they act like they know so much about wwe but when you ask trivia they get no questions right that proves a lot like they say TNA or ECW or ROH sucks because they only watched WWE not good promotions there all WWE fan Boys who hardly know anything about wrestling except Who's better Cena or Orton? There's more to wrestling than that like watch WWE for a longer time or gtfo, I been watching wrestling for 6 years now I know a lot so wwe fanboys need to stop being pathetic.

Answer 7

I don't know why this got so many stars .. it's not that interesting at all..
