Any event that can elicit this sort of reaction is doing something right.
And many relived the moment that saw the greatest streak in sports history, well sports entertainment history, snapped as ESPN re-aired the classic WrestleMania 30 where The Undertaker’s Mania record fell to 21-1 at the hands of Brock Lesnar Sunday night.
It reminded me there is some sort of nostalgic comfort to pro wrestling as whether you’re a fan or not, chances are you’ve had some experience with it. That same WrestleMania saw The Rock, Stone Cold Steve Austin and Hulk Hogan standing in the ring together to kick it off—think about all the generations involved there.
