haha fun post. i used to look down on pro wrestling when i was younger (and even more of a narrow-minded asshole). and true to cliche, what made me reconsider my stance and lack of respect for the industry was the movie, "The Wrestler" (even though i don't think that that's what the movie was really about at the core).

Hah, that's pretty cool. It's a good movie. It's a love story at its core, or a story about a man down on his luck, and I felt that the wrestling aspect of it was pretty random, but not in a bad way. Unfortunately, the story that it tells is very true for a lot of older wrestlers who once made it big, blew their money, and are now too old for the big stage.
So, they drag their broken bodies to high school gyms for a few bucks. It's really sad.
But a lot of wrestlers make it big when they're young, and when you're in your 20s or early 30s, you have very little concept of saving for retirement and stuff like that. All of a sudden, you're making six figures a year, in an environment filled with alcohol and drugs. It often doesn't end well.
