5 THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW BEFORE DATING A WRESTLING FAN

Wrestling fans are a different breed and everyone knows it. They can be loud and incredibly passionate over the sport. That being said, there are certain rules that every man and woman need to know before they start dating a wrestling fan. We’re going to take a look at the top five things that you have to keep in mind before you start dating a wrestling fan to make sure you can handle their intensity.

1. They Will Act Out Movies with Friends

Whether it is after a few drinks or completely sober, wrestling fans love taking matters into their own hands and trying out some moves that they’ve seen. While it’s not likely that they are going to try them out on their date, the fact of the matter is that you might have to be the voice of reason in some cases. In the best case scenario, you avoid a stunt going wrong and a table from being broken. In the worst case scenario, you might have to go with them to get some stitches. It’s all part of the relationship, though.

2. Date Night and Wrestling Nights Are Never the Same

You might have a romantic dinner for two in mind, but you have to check the schedule. There are some major events that occur regularly throughout the year that are not to be missed. While your date might cave in on some, it’s not fair or to be expected of them to miss the Royal Rumble, SummerSlam, Wrestlemania , or the Survivor Series. Instead, kick back and take an interest in the sport.

3. The History of Wrestling is Surprisingly Complex

Speaking of taking an interest in the sport, your date will expect you to learn some stuff so that you understand the matches and what they mean. Different wrestlers have a true hatred for one another and a rivalry that spans years. Some events date back decades. The rules on some events are so intense that you’ll sit on the edge of your seat. Wrestling is an intense sport and you will have to take a crash course in history if you’re to follow along!

4. Finding a Pro Wrestling Fan Isn’t That Hard

Although some people won’t talk about their passion for pro wrestling until the third date, there are some easy ways to find people that love the sport. Aside from going out to live events in your local area or going to major ones in cities, you can find people on dating sites that love wrestling. Using a dating site like this website will allow you to connect with people that have a bright passion for wrestling and are looking to share it with you.

5. Their Reactions to Matches Are Passionate

It can be a little distracting to hear someone flip out over a last-minute win in sports of any kind. You have to remember that the twists and turns in wrestling are just as gut-wrenching for your date as they would be for a fan of football, soccer, or anything else. You might have to wait a little bit for your wrestling fan date to calm down, but as long as you regard their reaction the same way you would any other sport you’ll be fine.

All in all, there are a lot of different things that you will need to keep in mind before dating a pro wrestling fan. Be prepared for random injuries sustained from table matches in the back yard and nights filled with yelps of joy and surprise. Although finding these dates isn’t difficult, you should always be prepared for anything when dating one in the long term!
