🔥 Welcome to Episode 35 of Rebels by Design Wrestling! Have wrestling fans lost the plot? In this episode, we dive into the state of modern professional wrestling and discuss whether today's wrestling fans have changed the way they watch, judge, and enjoy the wrestling business.

From social media arguments and online wrestling tribalism to unrealistic expectations, controversial booking decisions, and constant debates about match quality, we explore what it means to be a pro wrestling fan today. Has the internet made wrestling discussions better, or has it created more negativity among WWE, AEW, WCW, and TNA Wrestling fans?

We also look at how wrestling fandom has evolved from the Monday Night Wars and the classic 1990s wrestling era to today's professional wrestling landscape. Are fans too focused on ratings, star ratings, backstage rumors, and online opinions instead of enjoying the stories told inside the ring?

If you enjoy WWE discussions, AEW talk, wrestling history, wrestling podcasts, wrestling debates, wrestling news, fan reactions, and professional wrestling analysis, this episode is for you!
