I got into wrestling when I was six, and was on the way toward growing out of it around age 12 when I got the Internet back in the early 1990s and started to get "smart," and once I found out how it all works (and how the style differs all over the planet, and if I'm being honest, just how fucked up of a business it is behind the scenes), I got sucked in for another 10 or so years. That's one thing about wrestling: I think being a "smark" allows you to appreciate it more. If you're a casual viewer, or someone who hates it, it's easy to disregard it. The more you know, however, the more you can respect it. It's not all visible on the surface.
