Wrestling Angles that worked
 

I seem to be getting a touch of the wrestling fever as of late. Today I've been thinking about those wrestling angles that actually worked. worked as in were entertaining, made you want more AND resulted in matches you wanted to see.

I can think of a bunch but I'll wait a bit and then chime in with some that are missed.

The only thing that ever got me interested in seeing a match were the two guys in the ring.

I was always a big fan of Cactus Jack and his barbwire club.

Wrestling was fun when I was 12. I think it got stupid by the time I was 14.

Examples? I'm somewhat this way too but let's face it since the matches are predetermined the only reason someone could be interested in the match and outcome is if there has been sometype of buildup, angle, story to cause it to be so.

You need to ungrow-up then.

I have tried to watch it recently, but it just doesn't hold the same appeal. I think its fun until you realize they just keep repeating the same gimmicks and story lines.

I always really like the Corporation/DX angles. like when HBK was the crooked commish, but then he made the face turn and gave McMahon the superkick. that was pretty cool.


edit: also a lot of stuff that involved McMahon (both Vince and Shane-o) strutting out to NO CHANCE and talking [censored]. that was too funny

It's never the outcome that matters in things like wrestling, tv shows, and movies. It's how it gets there. The Chris Jericho/Christian thing from about a year and a half a go was horribly boring and drawn out, but it's Chris Jericho and Christian! They'll make quality matches, so I'll watch.
