Losing Traction

Oh how I wish I could be twelve again, when watching wrestling was an integral part of my life. Every Saturday morning, I had to be in front of my television at 10am for "Superstars". On Sunday mornings, it was "Wrestling Challenge". Monday nights it was "Primetime Wrestling" before "Raw" replaced it. Oh, there was also "WCW: Saturday Night" for good measure. The performers were larger-than-life.  The action and drama exciting.  While my peers watched "real" sports, wrestling was where it was at.  I never felt any embarassment for admitting my fandom.  It was my enjoyment.  My escape.

Oh how I wish I could actually care to watch WWE...
