I thought it was fun to watch when I was in HS in the 80's. Of course we all knew it was fake, that actually was part of the fun of watching it. It was almost like a parody of a real wrestling league. Very campy and kinda lighthearted.

I loved watching monologues between Bobby "The Brain" Heenan and one of his wrestlers. Whenever the wrestler was responding to Bobby you could see Bobby mouthing the words of the script right along with him; it was so funny.

The Hulk with his typical come from behind super-human turn around victory (every match) whereby the crowd would somehow endow him with power from beyond.

...and of course, my favorite, "The Macho Man" Randy Savage... I'd just laugh outloud everytime that guy talked.

Yeah, those were the good ole days... Nowadays it's like a mix between softcore porn and tales from the darkside. It's just not something I can let my kids watch.

Have you seen Wrestlemania 9, when Savage, Heenan and JR were on the commentating team? The entire event is priceless.

Macho Man: Shut up, Heenan!
Bobby: Shut up, Ross!

And not forgetting the legendary Tiger Singh:
