Same reason you watch martial arts films or action films.
Sometimes, yes. It can get really corny and cringeworthy with its sense of humour. I do enjoy the athleticism and the 'story' being told in the ring during a match.
.
Sure there can be some dodgy acting, but the top talent is pretty good, especially the ones that can improv in-character (or just play themselves onscreen).
Aside from that, a good wrestling match is flashy and well choreographed, and when it's well paced and gets you emotionally invested in the outcome it can be pretty great. The big difference between good wrestling and actual fighting is that you're generally guaranteed a 20-30 minute match on a PPV (exceptions for angles, etc.) instead of getting a first round knockout in the main event.
This is where people post a .gif of D-Bry vs Sheamus at WM28.
We watch 2 and a half hours of crap for the one awesome match that somehow didn't get axed during the creative process.

Such a Barren card, i'm guessing we'll get some filler crap like Funkasaur Vs Kwik's buddy.
Two 3 on 1 matches, I really hope they have a good plan for both matches. A plan that doesn't include the Shield imploding and Bryan joining the Wyats.
Can't believe how uninterested I am in the unification match,whoever wins...we lose.

Madness aint it!
They should cut it to six PPV's a year, and that is pushing it!
And someone has said it somewhere else in this thread, I really hope that 'Yes' chants are blasted out throughout the 'Main event'!!!
The problem isn't the time, it's the care
I mean.. there's a way to make that many PPVs interesting, but their general strategy
WrestleMania- May
Just rematches from WrestleMania
Throwaway PPV in June
False hope at Summerslam
SummerSlam-Oct
Rematches of Summerslam usually involving the Money in the Bank cash-in
Survivor Series-Jan
just throw up their hands and wait
Rumble-Mania
Really interesting time in theory.. if all your main eventers are around weekly, and not like once every 3 weeks...
Yeah, though the best time a year in WWE is post-WM to SummerSlam generally.
It's when the parttimers are gone and there's still enough time away from the next Mania for them to concentrate on storylines that are happening at the time, instead of wasting time as they wait for their Mania angles to play out.

Oh god. There have been so many times where this would make sense, and this is not one of them.

As he is right now, he is already the biggest heel in the company. If they actually turned him heel and had him act like a heel, he would probably be the biggest babyface in the company.
It's a no-win situation.
TNA is in really dire straits business wise. AJ Styles and Hogan are done, other big stars and TNA homegrown guys are getting phased out for guys the fans don't care about.
I wonder what he will do 10 years from now when he isn't in the ring anymore. He'll still probably overcome the odds and win every match.

Bubba fuxking Ray is the face of the company in 2013. Absolutely pathetic.
Trips will sign AJ Styles to a contract.
The return of the spinner belt
For the all new Cena Wins LOL belt, with spinners on spinners

While I'm not a fan of Cena's hero status across everything he does... I do like the fact that a person that cashes in MITB isn't guaranteed a win.
If it was 1:1 every single time, it would get absolutely boring.
1) There is no Roster split anymore.
2)Giving D. Bry something to do until Wrestlemania season.
What will they change his name to?

Almost my match of the year, and the match I show anyone who goes "NJPW?" - that will make people a believer.
Which is understandable and I agree with... but Sandow didn't even do anything with the case except for that two week feud with Cody. He then came back in the picture. The match was pretty good. The problem with it, though, was that it was against Cena. The result was even more of a guarantee than the MITB winner getting a belt.
I know your joking around, but its actually a legit issue- he has a giant "AJ" tattoo on the side of his body, and there is already an AJ on the roster who is more important than him.
They probably make him wear a shirt or something.

Styles ain't going to WWE. If he did maybe make him atan AJ Lee.

I would be ok with Kurt coming In occasionally.....similar to Brock Lesnar.

Imagine him wrestling in front of actual crowds again? I think he could return on a limited schedule, like HBK did.
