The WWE target audience is said to be male 18-40, but over the past few years I think that demographic has changed to include both sexes and a younger audince? So my question is how old are you and how long have you been watching wrestling for?
I am 29 and male btw.

My family has been watching wrestling since the great days of Sammartino, Sheik, and Santana so it has kind of just been my blood. Unfortunately I am only 20 so I have wasn't able to see all the great matches of yesteryear. I have seen wrestling go through the ups and downs and was a fanatic for a long time. The last 3 or so years I have downgraded to more of an online fan rather than a TV fan. The characters and storylines these days are too stupid to watch so I would rather read about them and hear about what is going on back stage. I realize that todays audiences want the big characters and the amazing stories which I respect. But give me more matches with better wrestlers and I will turn the TV back on. As far as brands I have always been on the WWE side but I found WCW entertaining and I find TNA can be entertaining. I really don't think today one is really much better than the other because from my eyes there are so many down sides to each promotion. But they do offer different kinds of wrestling and both can be entertaining.

18, its fun to watch whenever i have time...in a world where everything is so serious sometimes something fake is good for you, ya dig? But the audience is definitly getting younger, I was much more into it when i was like 10 than I am now. And my 8 year old brother couldn't be much more obsessed. As for women, I don't think they are jumping on the bandwagon, its a man's show, it should stay that way

Well; I'm 55 >male and I remember sitting on dads lap when I was seven or eight watching wrestling.I was really into NWA in the old days.Then it was WCW.Those were the best.WWF came along and the soap operas came with it.Vince thinks turning family against family is the way to go.Now I tape it and watch the good matches while fast fowarding the trash.Most of the time I just dont watch it.I hear about it at work so I dont miss much.Flair was my hero but I think he should retire before he makes too much of an *** out of himself.("Turn out the lights,the partys over".)

I have been watching wrestling for the better part of 35 years.I am a fan but not a fanatic,I don't have to watch ever pay per view or every match.I think wrestling is like a soap opera for men.

I'm 21, female and I've been watching wrestling for as long as I can remember... I'd say about 15 years or so at least... I have 2 older brothers that were fanatics growing up.

I didn't really get into wrestling until I was 18. Ever since then I try to watch it every time it's on. I've even been to a couple tapings of RAW.
