1 COMMENT

  1. Wrestling of the past years are a treat to watch by any true fan of wrestling with the exemption of wwwf/wwe/wwe low level entertainment,as I have stated before. There is no way Vince mc mahon’ s organization of entertainment could not compare with. Which is why they(wwwf/wwe/wwe) got rid of its competion(s) that resulted in losing the territories as happened. I will never be a fan of low level entertainment that one see(s) on USA network.
