In the last three days, I have gone to see WWE (formerly WWF) wrestling events twice. On Sunday night, I attended Summerslam at the ACC in Toronto; last night I went to Smackdown at Copps Coliseum in Hamilton. I know you're all shocked to find out I like wrestling, but yes, I do (and both times the tickets were free, I probably would not have paid to go.)
It was the first time I have ever seen WWE live in person. While enjoyable and entertaining, it has definitely gone downhill over the past few years with the departures of big names like Hulk Hogan, Brett Hart, Sean Michaels, and others. The big personalities just don't seem to be around anymore. Gone are the Ultimate Warriors, the Ravishing Rick Rude's, the Honky Tonk Mans, and in their place we have such lacklustre personalities as Scotty 2 Hotty and Randy Orton. Just doesn't compare.
Nevertheless, I had a lot of fun. I took some pics and may post them later.
