Unhappy with modern WWE? Maybe don't go looking for the good old days.

Well, well, it€™s already 2016; time sure flies when you€™re watching pro wrestling at its absolute finest. What with the innovative stories and the many, many opportunities flying around among a host of different names, it€™s been a distracting roller-coaster ride fraught with dizzying highs and new frontiers€

Okay, enough of that. Obviously, neither the company nor its fans are in a very positive place right now, all largely due to a perfect storm of poor internal decisions and some even worse luck.

In light of recent events that probably need not be specified verbally, many WWE Network subscribers may find themselves nostalgically gravitating to a certain major event in the archives. Like so many of those lost souls, I gave into the urge to re-watch WrestleMania XXX on DVD recently, and by the time it was over I needed a stiffener. And I don€™t even drink.

For a variety of reasons, having a direct contrast of then and now (knowing it hasn€™t even been two years) is a wonderful way to ruin your day. So out of concern for fellow connoisseurs of the canvas, the following is a list of ten reasons why you should wait a while before watching WrestleMania XXX. If ever.
