I put this as a comment on a thread but thought it might be nice for people to read.

I worked in a children's care home for kids with serious issues. One of the kids was about 10 and struggled to bond with any of the carers. On the day I met him he was having a bad day and was kicking off and swearing at the carers, he told me to suck it and crotch chopped, I said to him "was that from the new age outlaws?" He did the biggest grin in the universe and recited a perfect "lady's and gentlemen, boys and girls children of all ages, D generation X proudly presents........" It turns out he had been watching old clips of DX on YouTube and loved it.

He was born 10 years after the outlaws peak and it still was his favourite thing in the world. We ended up bonding after that and it really helped him develop and get over his issues being able to relate to a carer as I was also a huge fan. whenever he was struggling we would talk about and watch old wrestling and it would calm him down. He had been doing the suck it thing to the other carers but non of them understood it and just presumed it was just another insult.

Point is that never underestimate how important wrestling can be to someone and how over the New age outlaws still are.
