1. You Gain A Lot More Respect For People In The Wrestling Business
WWE.comFrom my perspective as a guy that writes about it five days a week (sometimes six when there are PPVs) I know that the wrestling business can be overwhelming at times. There are times when we write fantasy booking articles where we try to come up with ideas for stories in WWE, but they just don't come easy. Think about the guys in the creative room. They might have 50 ideas one day. Maybe they think they're great. Guess what? If Vince McMahon doesn't like it then it will never see the light of day. That's frustrating. The performers are the ones I really admire the most. It's very difficult to travel for four days every week for nearly every week and leave your family behind if you have one. They go to the arenas, they do their show even if it's a two minute match or 30 second promo and that same night they might drive for three hours to do the same thing in the next town. They have to love it if they do it and we, as fans, should respect them for it. Writing about wrestling daily and following it so closely for 15 years has taught me to appreciate the business much more than I did before. I'm very happy to be in the spot I'm in today.
