I have been thinking of the past a lot lately. You know, just analyzing different stages in my life. Well, this Friday I found myself watching the WWE’s Smackdown. You know the wrestling show. After watching some of this, I began to realize how much I used to loooooovvvvvve wrestling as a kid. Some of you may read this in disbelief, but yes, I used to be a bonafide wrestling Fanantic. I loved it!! The fighting, the trash talk, the drama, the excitment, the good guys, the bad guys. All of it, I loved and craved, I couldn’t get enough. At one point, my dream was to become a professional wrestler.

As time moved on and as I got older, I drifted away from wrestling to the point where I couldn’t stand watching it. You see when I was growing up, the biggest stars at the time were The Rock, Triple H, and Stone Cold Steve Austen, to name a few. My favorite was The Rock, I was so in love with him, I wanted to marry him. I also loved Shawn Michaels. I liked a few other people, but The Rock and Shawn Michaels were my ultimate favorites.

So over the weekend, I have been watching countless WWF (not WWE) video’s on YouTube. And I must say the magic that I saw as a kid, I still see know. All the action and fun still blows me away. It was just great for me to step back into the past again and relive my childhood passion. You may think I’m joking, but wrestling was what I lived for. I subscribed to the WWF’s magazine and would faithfully watch Smackdown every Thursday at 8:00 PM.

I know this is a weird post but I thought it would be fun to share. I know some people hate wrestling. Some people say it’s “fake”. But come on what on TV is not fake. I prefer the word “scripted” to describe wrestling. And I do see wrestling as a sport. I mean these wrestlers are athletes and do so many things that just tears their bodies up. No wonder we see so many of these wrestlers dying from drug overdoses of painkillers and steroids.

And even though I don’t watch it now-I just can’t get into the wannabe rapper John Cena, he makes my stomach hurt- wrestling will forever have a special place in my heart and memories. So here I leave you with a video featuring the best quotes and sayings from my main man The Rock:

Peace, Wiggy Wack ♥
