Which do you prefer?

[Jetta's G-string]

As the question states, which do you prefer?

 

Normally i'd go for American wrestling, but i'm becoming a big fan of Mexican wrestling recently. I love the mystique and colour of it all.

American Wrestling - Very entertaining, very much storyline based.

 

British Wrestling - If it isn't the British wrestling that is promoted as American style wrestling then i don't see much of it around.

 

Japanese Wrestling - Quite watchable and getting into the hang of watching more of it.

 

Mexican Wrestling - AAA and CMLL obviously the top federations are the two i watch regularly.

[Mock-The-Cross]

Japanese Wrestling for the 'sport'

American Wrestling for the entertainment

[Rabid Womble]

Unfair poll. What if I want to vote for women's wrestling as my favourite?

[Big Rob]

Well it's not as if women's wrestling from Mexico resembles Joshi or North American women's wrestling.

[Snitsky's back acne]

Joshi.

 

Have a major fondness for classic British style wrestling when performed properly too, however.

[cobystag]

Puro by far. NOAH/Classic AJPW, NJPW, Dragon Gate/Toryumon, DDT, BJW, etc etc, I get everything I need and a variety of wrestling and wrestling styles.

[Richie Freebird]

Different styles for different moods.

 

Mainstream American style was what got me into the sport as a child, but as I get older I find myself more inclined to only watch US Indies or Japan.

[Reznor]

Different preferences at different times.

 

From 90-97 it was US stuff, WWF mainly, and likewise for the first half of the '00's. But i disliked the Attitude years so as it coincided with me discovering the internet and finding out about what else was going on, I turned to Japan and Mexico from 98 onwards. The Japan thing lasted from around 98 until maybe '02 and covered mostly Mpro, FMW, 98-99 AJPW/00-02 NOAH, NJPW juniors from the mid 90s, and Toryumon in it's first couple of years (before the Crazy Max/M2K feud).

 

My interest in Mexico (well, CMLL) lasted a lot longer, and continues right up to this day, although the past 3 or 4 years have been shite, relatively speaking.

 

Overall though, US wrestling is what i grew up with. I've watched WWF almost continuously from 1990-2005 and sporadically between then and now. I missed a lot of WCW from the 90s but have enjoyed watching it retrospectively over the last decade. So the US big leagues - post terrtories, will always be my #1, with CMLL following.

[The King Of Swing]

80's AJW.

[Dil|kid]

American all the way.

 

Ive had spells where Ive been really into Lucha and Puro, but tend to get a ton of DVDs and then overdo it. Dont think Ive had a spell where I havent watch US wrestling, havent watch WWE since Mania though but still watch ROH and occasionally TNA.

[Carbomb]

I love it all. Haven't seen so much Mexican, but I've liked what I've seen.

[PunkStep]

All, but slightly leaning toward British. I'd be happiest watching a Steve Gray/Johnny Saint classic on WOS.

 

But I obviously enjoy American wrestling, which is what got me into wrestling and I still watch it. I love a lot of the Puro matches I've seen, but no doubt there is a lot I have yet to see. The 1990s Kawada/Misawa/Kobashi classics for example.

 

I also enjoy Lucha, this is certainly the style I've seen less of. But very much like what I have seen.

[Swift89]

Voted for British although I meant to vote American.
