Weird, random, crazed and wild. I think this would accurately describe the experience of watching a show put on by All Star Wrestling last Sunday in the bowels of the Abby Arts Centre. I won’t deny that at first I had second thoughts about going, but in the end I was glad I did. It was exactly what I would have expected from a wrestling show. There were the classic fake punches and kicks accompanied by the stomp on the mat and flashy acrobatics to add a dash of flare to the show. However, it wasn’t these things that made it a worthwhile experience. It was the performance. Everything was shouted through sweat-covered mouths at an audience that shouted back. There were insults thrown, alliances forged and betrayed, and egos stacked higher than the Empire State. It was like watching a bad movie, but one that you could interact with and enjoy for its sheer lunacy. Overall this experience was one worth having and one worth repeating.
I’ve tried to chronicle my experience with this fun filled comic. I believe it most accurately describes the progress of my enjoyment of this event.
