10 THINGS YOU CAN VIEW INSTEAD OF WATCHING WRESTLEMANIA

By Kendall Jenkins on 2020-03-22 06:25:00

If you watched Wrestling in the 2000s, then you remember broken tables, fierce blood, and spectacular shows. WWE is an American Wrestling promoter that has created many world-famous stars like John Cena, Shawn Michaels, Dwayne Johnson. Its history began in 1979 and during this period it achieved excellent success. However, the show has been losing its high ratings since 2017. The fact is that all the fights here are staged and the scriptwriter always needs to use something new to attract viewers.

How to entertain the audience if the battles are not real?

WWE Wrestling is a long series that you can watch at the arena. Every week there are new shows:

  • RAW;

  • Smackdown;

  • NXT;

  • 205 Live.

Each show is held under a different flag offering different matches and athletes. To add adrenaline, the company conducts grandiose ‘Pay-Per-View’, during which wrestlers have more vivid and spectacular conflicts. Among the most popular are Summer Slam, Elimination Chamber, TLC. As a rule, all these shows follow a pre-approved scenario. But since viewers have a big impact, the scenarios can be changed even during the show. All conflicts, friendships, championships last until the main event of the year - Wrestlemania.

What is WrestleMania and why does it not cause a stir?

If we compare WWE with the series, then we can say that WrestleMania is the final series of the season. On this day, the scriptwriters finish all the storylines and choose the athletes who will win the titles. This show always turns into a celebration with American aviation, celebrities, and star wrestlers. In each confrontation, both fighters play different roles. And in the ‘Match of the Night’ wrestlers fight for the main WWE titles.

Despite the popularity of athletes and new scenarios, Wrestlemania is becoming boring. Moreover, Wrestlemania 33 was recognized by critics as one of the most disastrous. The company management relied on experienced wrestlers from the 90s, but their age did not allow them to conduct spectacular fights. Since then, the show’s popularity has been steadily declining. There are no new lines that would renew the interest of the audience. Athletes have already shown everything that they can and, besides, fans have become more demanding.

Experts are sure that the main show of 2020, Wrestlemania 36, does not prepare anything new. The authoritative WhatCulture resource even amounted to 10 signs that the upcoming show could be a big disappointment.

Accordingly, it is unlikely to be able to give you the excitement that it gave many years ago. In this regard, there is a question - what to do instead of viewing Wrestlemania? We have compiled a list of great alternatives that will fill your adrenaline scale as quickly as possible!

TOP 10 things to do instead of watching WrestleMania

Many readers may be disappointed to hear that their possibly favorite show is considered a failure. In order not to spoil your mood, we have compiled a list of classes that will give you positive emotions:

10) Read a book. This will help you spend time receiving new information or expand your area of ??interest.

9) Watch the movie. These days many films are dedicated to wrestling. Besides, they are accompanied by spectacular battles during which you are guaranteed to receive adrenaline.

8) Learn something new. Thanks to the Internet, users have many opportunities. If you don’t know how to replace watching Wrestlemania 36 then open the video tutorial and learn something new.

7) Comics. Of course, some WWE wrestlers appear in popular comics and this is another opportunity to get closer to your favorite characters.

6) Make a romantic evening. Pay attention to your second half. Perhaps you should turn off the TV and make a romantic dinner to distract from work and household chores.

5) Check social networks. Thanks to Facebook/Twitter and other social networks, we can chat with friends and even strangers who like wrestling. Why not create a chat room to discuss this or that match or predict new champions?

4) Meet with friends. As a rule, we choose friends who support our point of view and share our hobbies. Maybe your friends are also fans of Undertaker or John Cena? If yes, you are going to have a lot of fun.

3) Table games. Many of us have a passion for money and games. That is why Monopoly and other board games have become popular. Did you know that WWE created its own Monopoly? The game has become very popular and you should test it if you have not done it yet.

2) Computer games. One of the reasons for WWE's popularity is a series of video games. They are available for PS and Xbox only, but due to new trends, the company developed a series of computer games from 2K14 onwards. These games have amazing graphics and different modes will allow you to select/create an athlete and bring him to the main event on WrestleMania 36.

1) Online games. Spectators watch wrestling to get adrenaline. Fortunately, there are plenty of gaming rooms like fair go casino, which will offer an excellent range of slot machines with great welcome bonuses. 3D slot machines and progressive jackpots will decorate your evening if you do not know how to have fun.
