WWE Has Brought a Revolution to Sports Entertainment

WWE is a name that brings a glint in the eyes of all youngsters out there. It is a name that we have grown plan. From skipping studies, to skipping meals, all for all those 90 minutes of pure adrenalin; the lights, the actual action, the drama was something to die for! And if that isn't enough, wrestling card games, trading cards, and walls embellished with posters of Hulk Hogan and The Rock and not! Those were the good old days.

WWE brought an innovation to the world of sports entertainment. Yes, it is sport, but it is basically entertainment, and a part of the entertainment industry, and entertainment in its best for that matter. The People's Champ, the Tx Rattlesnake, The Heart Break Kid, Triple H; these people had been, and still are role models for a lot of young teens available.

Why you ask? Because, it was different. It had the magic necessary to keep people glued to their seats/TV sets. It was much better than any Hollywood flick. The oh-so-arrogant Mr. McMahon great mini-wars with the stars, especially Stone Cold Steve Austin tx; the life-in-a-pot-undead Undertaker; the People's Champ, The Stone who Layeth the SmackDown with the People's Elbow; who are able to forget those golden moments. I mean, they're etched in to our brains, and I speak for a lot of people when I say which. The craze was so extreme that I actually broken my leg once trying to do a Jeff Hardy & a Brahma Bull "Swanton Elbow". This just would go to show how much we were in love with those people with the cool tresses, the big muscles, and of course the underwear. The only thing that we in no way followed was the "Please don't try this at home"!

After that came the name change, and I personally feel that it was not only the name that had changed. Maybe I was developing out of it, but that's just not right because I'm nevertheless a WWE fan. In came a new breed of muscle-men, hungry for each other's blood. Brock Lesnar.. Man having been one strong guy. He bloody broke the engagement ring, and the tool used was a Big Show! A five hundred pound superplex! I could hear myself thinking "What on earth just happened?! " followed by "What else did you anticipate? " John Cena, a skinny little thing who enjoyed slapping people and showing some "ruthless aggression" is currently close to legend, accompanied by the likes of Batista the Animal, Mr. 619 Rey Mysterio and the Punjabi Giant, The Great Khali. Even though extremely talented and bloody well powerful, these brand new champions somehow didn't have what the older Heroes do. They had just disappeared. And to this day, I'm always wishing for some turn of events and The Rock, or Stone Chilly walking down towards the ring. But such is living.

All I know is that WWE is legendary, and even though it is extremely different from what it was once, I'm glad I grew up viewing, idolizing, and imitating what can now only be called Tales of the wrestling world.
