Nostalgia

I recently finished playing WWE Legends of Wrestlemania, and while I can't say that it has vast replayability for me, it was both a blast from the past and a blast to play.

In my opinion, the 1980's were the best years of wrestling, from the rise of Hulkamania and the decline of Andre the Giant, to the outrageous outfits and the characters that wore them and the great tagteams, it was a time of heroes and villains, and I think that's what's missing nowadays. It seems that now it's more the douchebags vs the guys who beat up the douchebags. It's not so much that you cheer on the guys that beat up the douchebags as much as you're glad to see the douchebags get beat up, and it's not even that you really hate the douchebags, instead they're just annoying. Ask anyone watched in the 80's what they felt about Hulk Hogan getting squashed by Earthquake on the Brother Love show, and chances are there were a few emotions stirred. I think part of the reason wrestling has changed is because it became too fake to believe that the good guy comes out on top most of the time.

Now before anyone goes on about how wrestling is fake, well no shit Sherlock. A lot of stuff in life is fake yet enjoyable, like porn, video games, and 90% of shows on TV - things from Jerry Springer to soap operas. Most people want an escape from reality in one form or another and if it's entertaining all the better.

So here's one Macho Man (even though he's oddly missing from this game) Oh Yeah, one Ric Flair Whoo!, and one If You Smell What the Rock is Cooking for WWE Legends of Wrestlemania.

Now imagine me throwing a microphone down and walking away pumping my arms like the Bushwackers - Brother!!!!!!!
