If I was, I would be following college wrestling and olympic Greco-Roman wrestling more closely. My Twitter handle is listed below; feel free to let me know how wrong I am.<\/p>\n<p>What is my problem with technical wrestling? To me it is disingenuous and sometimes disrespectful to the fans and other performers. I am sure most people who read that last sentence will think I am some uncultured wrestling fan. Isn\u2019t that a problem? Isn\u2019t that like judging someone&#8217;s taste in music or movies in a negative fashion, simply because they do not align with yours? I feel the same about types of wrestling.<\/p>\n<p>I have a very strong opinion about the gatekeeping culture in the IWC. This forum is not the place to lay out all my thoughts on the matter. Overall, I think all wrestling should be celebrated, and if you do not like a certain type of wrestling or a specific wrestler, that\u2019s cool. But, it is never right to attack someone for what they find entertaining. Also, why not try to discuss ways to make the thing you don\u2019t like better? Two weeks ago I discussed how I am currently not feeling The Kingdom. But, Instead of being like, &#8220;Get this trash off my TV,&#8221; I offered ways that the group could be taken to make them more interesting. As a result, I am looking at the group with a renewed opinion and open mind as a result.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><em>Tyler has been a wrestling fan for 20 years (a handful of years he was a lapsed fan \u2013 2003-\u201908, mainly), He\u2019s from Columbus, Ohio.
