Rants

Today’s younger generation

By Scott Keith on 24 March 2024



Scott,

I'm finally getting my 11-year-old son into pro wrestling.

The one trope that he just *cannot* accept is the suspension of disbelief in ladder / TLC matches.

“Why are they settling up a table?!  Why are they going outside the ring? don't they just CLIMB THE LADDER RIGHT NOW !??  

  1. Are your children wrestling fans?

  2. If yes, which trope(s) do they find hardest to accept?
No, she attends shows with me for the spectacle and mini donuts, but has no real investment in what happens.
