8. I Actually Love A Good, Well-Thought Out, Action-Packed Wrestling Match!
What I LOATHE is a bad, FAKE wrestling match. To this day, Savage/Steamboat from WrestleMania III is still my all-time favorite. WOWtwenty-seven years later that really says a lot. By FAKE wrestling I mean the clotheslines that are missed by 3 feet, the guy getting pounded in the corner without actually trying to defend himself, the phantom bump that wrestlers tend to take on their own and the girl scout rabbit punches that couldnt hurt a dead fly! I also DESPISE referees being made to look absolutely STUPID! In my humble opinion, theres no place for that in wrestling. You simply have to make the product as realistic as you possibly can, otherwise nobody is going to buy it in this day and age.
