To me i always enjoyed the athletic part of wresting and the technical aspect. The guys that made it look seamless. Yeah a jackhammer on a guy like Kevin Nash is impressive, but I'll take the work of guys like Eddie Guerrero, Dean Malenko, Y2J, Bret Hart, Christopher Daniels, AJ Styles, and so on over Cena and company.
I've said it before but I got into wrestling because of WCW's Crusierweight and Light Heavyweights in addition to Sting etc. That's what drove me to TNA early on.
