What happened in/to Pro Wrestling?

Haven't watched any in 15+ years. Had a buddy stop by and we started bs'ing about the old days, 80's-90's for us, and how over the top and vulgar Wrestling was from Stone Colds beer truck shenanigans to Gold Dust's fairy stuff. Of course as teens we thought it was the cats pajamas. I watched RAW from last Monday on the ole' tubes of ewe and I was befuddled... It was like watching a Disney scripted live event. Another shift in social norms and acceptability I missed apparently...

I grew up watching the Von Erich's vs The Fabulous Freebirds, Ric Flair, Bruiser Brody, Kamala, The Junk Yard Dog, Dusty Rhodes, Paul Orndorf, etc back in the good old days. Wrestling hasn't been the same since. :redneck:
