So I'm an anomaly in that I never watched as a kid and nonnies on FFA were actually what got me into it! I'd thought wrestling was super embarrassing my entire life but then they linked me to an Asuka match (she's a fantastic Japanese wrestler who's now with the WWE and also has a great YouTube channel) and I was in love. The the Golden Lovers storyline got me hooked, and I watched a bunch of stuff from different promotions...IDK, once you "get" wrestling you just get it. It's extremely homoerotic (both m/m and f/f) live improv theater, basically, and while 90% of it is trash, it can be weirdly sublime at its peak.

Yeah, I was trying to explain to a friend a while back what I liked about it when I was younger because she was just like 'it's ridiculous' and it was like, THAT'S THE POINT! I used to be really into that kind of... hypermasculine camp? Like idk 'DRIVE MONSTER TRUCKS EAT WINGS SHOOT THINGS WITH A PAINTBALL GUN THAT'S ALSO A FLAMETHROWER' but then also playing dressup in these theatrical costumes... So I was trying to explain that it's kind of like a soap opera which is extremely stupid but knows it's extremely stupid and that's part of the fun... ahhhh this is making me want to get back into it xD
