"I regard boxing, whether professional or amateur, as a first-class sport, and I do not regard it as brutalizing. . . . Powerful, vigorous men of strong animal development must have some way in which their animal spirits can find vent." —Teddy Roosevelt
Reddit libtard wrestling fans amuse me.
The origins of this “sport” are extremely rightwing.
Hulk Hogan made the modern industry. Southern territories built it roots, and still impact its culture today.
The entire attitude era, which most of you adore, would be immediately cancelled by woke activists today.
Stone Cold and 2000s Undertaker were both badass rednecks. Which by the way, used to be the stereotype of wrestling fans: drunk screaming rednecks.
Which makes perfect sense. You’re watching massive, jacked dudes hurt each other for entertainment. It’s basically a human demolition derby. Of course it should have the vibes of a monster truck or dirt bike rally.
Of course the actual wrestlers themselves mostly live in Florida and are rightwing. That’s really not surprising at all.
But now, the fanbase has been taken over by these neckbeard Reddit dorks who only like it because they’re too much of losers to like any “real sports.” Giving off massive comic-con vibes.
They don’t understand or appreciate what they’re watching. They just equate it to the fantasy comic books they still read at 35 years old.
Pro wrestling would still be cool today if these people didn’t exist. Make Wrestling Great Again, lmao.
Justin Gaethje was literally in the Oval Office before his fight, looking at the actual Declaration of Independence.
Then he walked out as a 6-to-1 underdog and beat the piss out of his opponent to win the first undisputed championship of his career.
I genuinely don't care what your politics are. That's one of the coolest sequences of events I've ever seen in sports.
Am I really supposed to think this isn't awesome because people decided to make it political?
Gaethje absorbing the Faustian Spirit from the deceleration of independence before beating the breaks off Topuria as a +350 underdog is just further proof this nation has a mandate from heaven
Just a few years ago we had trans perverts dancing with their fake boobs out on the White House lawn under Biden.
Now have Christian patriots reciting John 3:16 and sharing Christ to the entire world from the White House lawn.
Elections matter.
Gaethje passing by Teddy Roosevelt, moments before he beats the shit out of the foreign sitting champion on the South Lawn in front of a crowd of 80,000. This is America.
