If Wrestling Were to End, What would you do?

[The Intergalactic Koala]

Serious question due to the revelations of WWE not putting those butts into seats, if AEW just became another flash in the pan promotion, Indy wrestling in general falling off, and Puro gang seeing Inokism 2.0. What would be the endgame for you as a wrestling fan? What hobby would you partake or sport you would catch up on?

For instance, MMA always been my go to steez since the UFC days of the man standing the octagon logo days. Anime is pretty popular for my semi weeaboo stance, and music has always been my past time

What says you TSC

 

[Berniewood Hogan]

Start it again.

 

[Tres Leches]

you probably still have new japan and lucha

 

[The Intergalactic Koala]

you probably still have new japan and lucha

Not if it goes back to the low drawing Inokism days and Lucha....fair point.

 

[Heelish]

Go back to watch the old stuff.

There’s more than enough good wrestling in history already. Wrestling could end today and I still wouldn’t have seen all the good stuff if I die at 80. I’ve seen most of the good WWE, TNA and WCW sh1t but have barely touched Japan, AWA, Mid South, etc.

 

[BlackAchilles]

I don't see wrestling dying off; Even if the existing promotions fade away its a staple of pop culture, so someone w/ the deep pockets is gonna fill the void

But to answer the question: Watch old clips on youtube and reminisce w/ other old geezers

 

[The Girl From Innsmouth]

There's always sci-fi and games. I can argue about those for days.

 

[Ill Lou Malnati]

If pro wrestling was completely obliterated, that's just more time for music, gaming and movies.

If we're talking all of the main companies I watch right now becoming absolute trash and/or going out of business, I would probably just dig deeper into Japan, Australia, Great Britain and U.S. indy scene. I would love to try other feds. A lot of them have YouTube channels and they'll post full shows or matches, but I just don't have enough time in the day.

There’s a lot I haven’t seen so I’d probably catch up on that. It ever dying off is 50/50, we’ve seen that people are willing to pay if you give them something they want to see but they’ll also tune out and stay home if you don’t.

The wrestling industry needs a major company like WWE to thrive and succeed. If WWE ever went under there would just be another company that elevated to that level. Wrestling will never die. There's too many people that have a genuine love for it as a fan and people who have a love for it as an actual wrestler. Wrestling will never die.

 

[JerseyBoy23]

There would be more time to watch New Japan and CMLL

To answer the question, I'd probably just delve deeper into finding other TV shows

 

[Crimson_Dynamo]

I have hobbies and friends so....

Martial arts, fishing, truck driving, anime, manga, prepping for doomsday

 

[Mr. Manhattan]

it ain't that serious I stopped watching from 2009 till 2018

 

[Barnett114]

The same thing I've been doing, not watching wrestling anymore.
