Gothamite Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Wresting wouldn't really fit on here for a number of reasons, but it's funny watching Gothamite get all huffy about people liking wrestling.What, because I compared it to a drag show? I happen to love drag shows. I couldn't care less if anyone likes it. My taste is suspect anyway. I only object to pretending it is something other than what it is.

Shadojoker Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 I would love to create a sister site with Creamer's permission to use Sportslogos.net as an affiliate. We can include wrestling, and MMA But so much to begin, and would take some time. I guess only time will tell. I'm pretty sure someone on the "mothership" is looking into these posts..may not be seriously but they are looking into it. I can see it now, this site gets traction then we go mainstream..., "On Uni Watch page...this is Paul Lukas here...and John Cena's new attire has just been released..and its BFBS!! " spoke to the wrestling version of "Conrad"..@Shadojoker (or my real name)..and he says that this attire will debut at the next PPV...and will be worn for the next 3 months!" my imagination is through the roof.

Lee Noire Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 I'd enjoy discussing the design of pro wrestling in a thread like this, but I'm with the majority on not putting it on the motherboard. As much as I love wrestling, it's sport entertainment, and the main site is for archiving the logos of actual sports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coast2CoastAM2006 Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 Why not just make this thread a 'post wrestling logos' thread? Spoilers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FGWB Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 So why not make an "Entertainment" section, and also include fictional sports teams as well? Blue Mountain State, Any Given Sunday, The Longest Yard, just to name a few. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nyk33 Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 Couldn't we just put a Pro Wrestling logo thread in the General Design board? That board already has wrestling threads so it's not like there has never been a wrestling logo thread there.http://boards.sportslogos.net/topic/83908-wwe-network-logo/http://boards.sportslogos.net/topic/96320-wwe-logos-thread/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C-Squared Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 For what its worth, pro wrestling is much less "fake" than most people think... unfortunately, explaining it in detail to people who are already dismissive of it is a waste of time.

Cujo Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 pro wrestling is much less scripted/predetermined than most people think. The finish is not always predetermined, paths change mid-match, and recepits/shoot fights happen all the time These things only happen when something gets botched. Set aside athleticism -- How is something even a sport when wins and losses don't matter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody is debating that it takes a lot of skill and people do get hurt. If your argument is that it's a competitive sport, then that's simply absurd. This is coming from someone who attended dozens of ECW events at the arena from 1994-1999 and has seen pretty much everything that can go wrong and all the improvisation. At the end of the day, it's acting and stunt performing. Doesn't make it any less entertaining (the ratings and attendance numbers prove that plenty of people are entertained), but it's simply not a competitive sport. I couldn't care less about what's included and what's not on the site (not my site, and at the end of the day it's just reproductions of other people's logos anyway), but enough about wrestling being a competitive sport.

Luke_Groundrunner Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 Extremely doubtful that wrestling logos ever see the light of day on Sportslogos.net. Like many have said, it's a slippery slope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
