| #1 Posted on 27.3.02 0849.20 Reposted on: 27.3.09 0856.44 | Since Pro-wrestling is the only thing on the net that I ever write about or visit message boards about, I always wondered something: does pro-wrestling have the worst (or best, depending how you look at it) net fans? I mean, does say, Star Trek have an official site, three semi-legit news oriented web zines, several more opinion oriented sites, numerous message boards, and assorted random fan pages everywhere? Or am I just missing he whole "internet" thing, and indeed EVERYONE'S dumb hobby is like this?
So are we the worst? And if not, who is? Promote this thread! |  | Jaguar

I would say that Trek fans were much worse than Wrestling fans, but without much going on in the Trek universe these days they might have fallen off the radar a bit. Dunno who the worst is though.

Yup. I'm tyrannical that way.
One of those statements is a lie.
The other is also a lie. (tm, thecubsfan) | Travis

You see those everywhere..not just Canada. what about RR 2k with the chef boyardee guys?
What is sick however is that I have been to two wwf shows in germany and at both occasions there was this guy dressed and groomed like 93 Shawn Miichaels..
DrOp said it already, there are boards for everything. A friend of mine watches Charmed and occasionally checks the boards about that show gets pissed off at them for acting all Wrestling-smart like when they talk about who wasn't on an episode and what this means for their contracts..
When he checked some of the posters' profiles they were all teenage girls. Now you know where the hardcore Hardy boyz fanz post

He hits various rap message boards and I have read a few threads. Now when those guys complain they complain. To the point they threaten to kill one another.
I always thought that would happen between that ironclad Lou guy and CRZ. I guess Z is saving it for the PPV though. :-)
