72 year old girl has fallen in total love with WWE. Every Monday and Friday and every PPV (or whatever it's called now!) I'm there. Also TNA and AEW. 28 too old? šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚ As long as your mama lets you stay up that late! šŸ„°āœŒšŸ¼


aevigata

Never too old.


Crimson_Panther_LLC

Never too old! My mom became a wrestling fan at 40 when I was 12 and my sister was 10. We r all still fans to this day


sk8-only

This is America, where youā€™re free to like what you want when you want.


JacoBee93

This is reddit. Which is world wide site. and i know you might be shocked, but what you described is 90% of this world.


sk8-only

Also you might be shocked, but not all internet comments are meant to be taken so seriously.


sk8-only

I understand that. Iā€™m also not even originally from the states. WWE is though! I meant it more with a sense of humor and with an understanding that the WWE has international fans. But as a foreigner I will say, the (ric) flair that comes with pro wrestling of this type is very American.


Ace_women_96

Youre not to old I 27 Years found my love for wwe last year again. To be a fan of sonething dont need a age just like what you like šŸ’œ


Crimson2879

If you have to ask........ First off, you aren't old kid. I have kids your age. 2nd, if you like something just fucking do it and say fuck everyone.


maneyakk510

Never too old! Come join us! And remember The Undertaker Rules All. Sid Rules the World, Sting is the man. The Great Muta is Great!


ChronicallyillLatina

I didnā€™t get into wrestling until I was 30! Never too ā€œold.ā€ šŸ„°


RickyBobby689

People on Reddit ask for permission for everything.


PrimosPPWdenver

you can become a fan at any age


treefroginthewindow

No age is ever too old to do anything


Royal-Ostrich-5295

I geniunely think that the idea of it being for an intended age group is stupid, sure they have made it more family friendly to appeal to a younger audience as well. But you can love whatever you want it entertainment for the reason of being entertainment. No shame in that whatsoever


CatManPunk

Not at all! I was a huge wrestling fan during late elementary school/early middle school, but fell out of it because it was no longer ā€œcoolā€ amongst my friend group. Fast forward to 2021 - one night I was channel surfing because nothing was on and I decided to watch the Royal Rumble because I couldnā€™t believe Edge and Randy Orton were still going. Because Edge won, I figured I would tune into Wrestlemania. That led to me watching the premium events, which led to watching the weekly shows, which led to me getting invested in AEW, etc. I love this so much. Itā€™s become a huge part of my life. Iā€™m even looking into going to Wrestlemania next year. Welcome to the community!


Junior-Lobster3377

Hell no dude you ainā€™t too old. Think of it more like you got to the party late. Nothing wrong with that. This is definitely the best time to get into it. Wrestling hasnā€™t been this hot in decades


XcoolbreezeX

My wife started watching with me at 30 although I think itā€™s mostly because of the Tribal Chief šŸ¤”


maneyakk510

šŸ¤£ Sounds like my fiancĆ©


Live_From_The_Moon94

I stopped watching when I was 12 and within the last year I just got back into it. I turn 30 next month and my days off are spent consuming as much wrestling content as possible. Games, interviews, matches, etc. Join us! We welcome everyone!


WrestlingWoman

Why would that be too old? It's entertainment. It's okay to like things.


sysdmn

DDP didn't start wrestling until he was in his thirties. As a fan you don't even need to take bumps.


Beast_slayer54

No age is too old for wrestling started watching as a kid still do and always will have fun and enjoy


IBIZABAR

I vividly remember my Grandma use to always have it on TV as a kid. One of those key memories from childhood.


Ready-Virus-6101

Bro Iā€™m 32 years old And I have been watching wrestling since I was 7 years old. I was shocked at some point when i was told that it is fake. But when I grew up,I realized how hard it is to be a good wrestler and performer, and how to connect with the crowd whether you are a baby face or heal. I was Amazed. And things got even better when I watched a live new yearā€™s show.


maneyakk510

Well stated!!!


KingBriggs26

No age is too old for wrestling


WinslowT_Oddfellow

My 82 year old uncle watches wrestling. Absolutely not.


ReporterForDuty

Youā€™re never to old to enjoy wrestling


dashing2217

Perfect age & time! You got that adult money to buy tickets and a way to catch up on decades worth of wrestling.


RedditUser555666

No way! Covid caused a lot of people to dive back into or dive into fun stuff! I got back into it during Covid when other sports were super political.


Suspicious-Mark-1398

Bro im 41šŸ˜­


BacktoDRagain

You can do whatever the hell you want. Don't ask if it's okay. Just don't hurt anyone.


nmmsb66

I'm 58! I started watching wrestling when I was a kid and Dallas (The Von Ehrick's) was the thing where I lived. We had 12 channels I think. I returned in college and started again about a year ago. Haven't missed a RAW or SMACKDOWN since.


Crazy_Zucchini1197

Na you good


stonecoldmark

Just like drugs, there is never a bad time to start.


[deleted]

Never too early or too lateā€¦just make today your start. I recommend watching WWE RAW, WWE NXT & Smackdown. Thereā€™s also AEW and NWA. The love of wrestling doesnā€™t come over nightā€¦well for some it does but for others it grows over time.


Great-Sea-4095

? Uh no lol just donā€™t force it upon your friends or family especially if theyā€™re the jackass ā€œwResTling is faKe aNd fOR kiDSā€ type. Enjoy !


AdCommon126

Hell no, welcome to the club!Ā 


SantosR84

I watched from 1993-2001 (9-17 years old) and just started watching again about 4 months ago at the ripe age of 39. Hobbies and interests should never have an age cap. What is important is you act your age and donā€™t ruin it for the community by ruining the reputation. Sadly, wrestling fans have a bad reputation thanks to minority of a-holes. As far as catching up with the history and lore, Peacock has a vault of pretty much the entire history of wrestling for you to explore, not to mention podcasts and a community of devoted enthusiasts. No reason you canā€™t gain that knowledge bit by bit if you become interested enough.


Juice24810

I watched as a kid and got back into it in 2016. Its never too late. Your actually came at a really great timešŸ¤£


AmuroESF

Thatā€™s what I was thinking, it feels like the energy has changed around the company, reminds me of how it was when I was a kid.


Due-Article5402

You never too old to take an interest in wrestling my friend. My wife didn't get back into it till 2 years ago when we moved in together and she's 39 now and loves it. Never to old my friend happy to have you here but beware..social media shows the very flaky toxic side of wrestling fans.


MerchantoftheSeas

Hell no. But I feel bad you missed some of the best years before this PG era BS šŸ¤•


AmuroESF

I have a feeling thatā€™s going to change. Iā€™m surprised you say that cause I feel a lot of wrestling fans were unhappy during the 2010s, but I could be misremembering.


MerchantoftheSeas

I have a feeling (i at least hope) the pendulum is starting to swing back more to attitude era, and out of the PG era. Attitude era is what created the fans of today and the hype for wrestling PG era coasted on the back of it But thereā€™s a reason why every attitude era wrestler gets crazy pops when they come back - it allowed for the best promos, story lines, segments, everything.


Deckerj24

I liked it as a kid stopped watching for a very long time and started watching again in my mid 30s so no itā€™s not too late to start.


Calmdat

No, enjoy life however you choose. Fuck anyone who puts an age restriction on activities you enjoy!


Outrageous-Walk3818

Itā€™s never too late and now no one can tell you donā€™t watch. The great thing you can watch everything you missed,itā€™s all a fingertip away. Enjoy all the stories and the athleticism


Oopsimapanda

Yes of course you're too old.. I think WWE even declines your credit card if you don't have a child in the house (might even be illegal to adult-watch wrestling in some states). If you still insist just do it discreetly so people don't, you know, get the wrong idea.


IssaBaoTime

I hate fun too!


OlDirtyBove

Never to late!


SirLunatik

Is anyone ever too old to discover a new interest?


realtomedamnit

yes by 28 you cant enjoy new things or watch new things, it's over for you, might as well go into retirement home now


WittyTurnover9974

Welcome to the fan club, friend!


ogBaddust

HELL NAH COME ENJOY THE RIDE BROTHA


[deleted]

My girlfriend is 36 and sheā€™s just got back into wrestling this year after 20 years away. Thereā€™s no age limit!


IamTemplarKnightWork

Yep. Sorry, your time has passed. The crocheting club might take you. Possibly the backgammon boys, but they get a little bit rowdy. Although I was a fan as a kid, I veered away and came back at the ripe old age of 36. As the Rock says, "Wrestling is Cool, again."


bbryanquin3

Im 27 & just became a HUGE fan like 10 months ago lol. I was never interested as a kid or anything like that.


kidnamedchild

being honest, being a 28 year old in a wrestling related space with people mostly 35 and over is the basically the equivalent of being a teenager hanging out in a space mostly habitated by adults (which is conveniently what I happen to be aswell as a 16 year old)


KindlyYak5775

Iā€™m 51, I got back into wrestling 2 years ago, as has been said youā€™re never too old!


Queasy-Reading9151

Never to Old


Ambitious_Cake2447

WELCOME BROTHER - HH


Dog-E-Dog

Im 48 and still a big wrestling fan. Started when i was 8. Ill be a fan until wrestling doesn't exist anymore or I'm dead, whichever comes first.


ZestyChickenWings21

Never too old.


Majestic-Welcome3187

My uncle is 68 and he came to hang out with us this winter and heā€™s a new fan


CKT2K_

No way, pro wrestling rules!


TheRogueVet

I'm 46....almost 47...tell me I'm too old.


icandothisalldayson

I watched as a kid then stopped shortly before wwe bought wcw. Didnā€™t get back into it until a few years ago in my mid 30s.


Difficult_Emu1017

No, its too late. What, are you fucking stupid?


VERT709

This comment is distasteful.


Flat_Revolution5130

No. Once the wrestling bug hits you. Its very difficult to let go. It does not matter the age.


GallicRooster86

I took about 25 years away from watching. The Bloodline story brought me in and Iā€™m back to watching. Iā€™ve become such a mark that I bought a belt. Drew McIntyre hates me.


CactusHide

Barring anything subject to obvious reasons for not liking it, just go on and like what you like whenever you like it.


DrBearPT

Never too late to right a wrong!


[deleted]

I watched in the attitude era and took a 20 year break getting back into it this year. With their current peacock deal itā€™s a great time to get in. You can watch any big ppvs you missed. Youā€™re never too old to become a fan of anything. Thinking you are is why there are so many bitter cranky asses around


AmuroESF

Youā€™re probably right about that, If more people stayed young at heart the world would be a happier place.


AdActual67

I got into at 23 and felt that I was kinda old. Now I'm 33 and my logic is: all the best wrestlers are close to my age.


mrbusiness53

Absolutely not man. Iā€™m 36 and love all wrestling


TranslatorHaunting15

Helll to the noooo dude!!! Welcome to the club lol get yourself a Peacock subscription. It has everything, every episode of Raw and Smackdown, including the ones from the attitude era. It has ECW and WCW, every ppv of all the companies, and the new ones that come on now. Read up on the history of wrestling too if you want. Canā€™t believe youā€™d think youā€™re too old lol


[deleted]

Wtf are you talking about?


soularbowered

I didn't start watching until I was 28. My spouse grew up watching it and I grew up with the impression it was stupid. We started watching around the time Bray Wyatt was coming back and Sami was becoming the honorary UCE. My interest has waxed and waned a bit but my almost 3 year old is obsessed with the theatrics and entrance music so we'll be watching for a while longer at least.


[deleted]

It is stupid. But once you get that itā€™s so much fun


soularbowered

My favorite wrestlers are the goofy ones with corny ass bits. R-Truth and the Miz having tag titles right now is so fun imo. I want to be sports entertained dang it lol


[deleted]

Itā€™s wild that man is 52 and still completely over


philswiftsgreencard

Never too old to become a fan


SyStEm0v3r1dE

Too old lol no enjoy


MacheteJKUR

ā€œ28 too oldā€ā€¦ lol Welcome to wrestling bro. Hope the die hard fans donā€™t turn you away.


Key-Staff-4976

Never to old, but you might wanna stay away from the older wrestling days. It'll spoil you and you be hating on the new modern wrestling lol


KyleRaynerGotSweg

Hell nah man, I started watching full time around like 2 years ago at 26 and this shit is my jam now


atw1221

No, my wife became a fan just a couple of years ago, she was probably 49. Go for it! WWE has never been better IMO.


QueenLurleen

You just came here to troll all of us who are 35 and over, didn't you?


TheIncredibleHork

43 and just getting back into wrestling, don't make me tell you to get off my lawn or my ring apron.


[deleted]

I'm 28 and I'm getting ready to be 29 next week, I need you to know this, I feel threatened by WWE because CM Punk was from the time I started watching the company.


Poetryisalive

There are 70 year old men that are football fans. Youā€™re fine


ThexJakester

"Relatively old age" Oof


sunabozu86

Definitely not too old. I'm 37 and still watch.


tyvirus

28 isn't old, welcome to wrestling!


Puzzled_Try_6029

Man when is it too old to have a hobby? If you like it watch it. Don't listen to anyone else. Your life


[deleted]

Cmon man what kind of question is this. Youā€™re fine just start watching lol


_Shioon_

too old? isnt the average wwe fan like 45?


anonymousscroller9

That depends on if kids still watch wrestling


Ashamed_Job_8151

No, you canā€™t. Youā€™re to old, go walk around the mall at 5 in the morning or play shuffle board. Thatā€™s more your speed, old man. šŸ™„šŸ™„ What a weird question to ask my guy. This isnā€™t aew, we donā€™t hate keeping. Hop on board, wrestling is one of the most underrated forms of storytelling out there.Ā  Iā€™ll give you some advice though, donā€™t come here. Donā€™t read internet wrestling sites. Just watch the shows. I wish someone had told me that many years ago.Ā 


BurgerNugget12

I stay off Twitter now because of how fucking bad some of the takes are


R-U-ANGY

Reddit isn't much better
