Most of us 'grew up' as it were watching wrestling, whether it's AWA/NWA/WWF/WCW/ECW/WWE/TNA/ROH or the immortal XWF. My challenge to you, should you decide to accept it, is find the video that makes you feel the most nostalgia. The one that in an instant can almost make you feel the age you were and make you remember where you were when you watched it. for me (I had just gotten into the WWF a week or two before this and was sad when I realized this show was just a few miles away from my house  ) WHAT IS YOURS? |

I was a hysterical mark jumping up and down when Austin finally stunned Angle. I also remember wanting to physically harm HHH for costing him the belt. The good ol days. When I see kids jumping up and down for Cena these days, I remember being at that age too, doing the same for Stone Cold, Rock, Taker, etc. I also realize how much I miss JR. Listen to that  ing passion. He literally damn's HHH's soul for costing Austin the belt. |

I still remember watching this and immediately running out of my house and two blocks down the street to my best friend's house to make sure he saw it. Those were the days.

I remember the whole episode was based on ''Is Austin gonna win the title?'' and was thinking it was really gonna happen. This was the first airing of his theme by Motorhead aswell, 10 years he's had it now. |

Hell, when Taker beat Hogan for the title Monsoon called it like a champ too "What a total and utter miscarrige of justice!!!" Michael Cole really takes the excitment out of the matches |

Not a match or in-ring segment (really), but when Ric Flair introduced this it gave me goosebumps. Still does. Best video package in wrestling history.

First PPV I stayed up and watched Live on TV. Was the best PPV the WWE has ever put on in my opinion. The entire HHH and Cactus match was insane. The fued was so well done aswell. I hated HHH so much at the time and I was a huge Foley fan. When HHH had him cuffed and was beating him with the chair I was so angry and sad but then Rock came out and uncuffed him. MARK OUT! The bummer of the night for me was when Xpac got elimated from the rumble but the refs didnt see so he jumped back in and elimated Kane. Who was my favoroute. In my eyes, Kane was gunna win and Pac cost him the rumble! These where good times  Back when I still believed it was real  But that promo with Cactus and HHH is amazing and always makes me feel nastalgic |

I´m suprised no one has posted Hulk slamming Andre or Piper hitting Snuka over the head with a coconut. What was so good about these two bits anyway? I can understand Hulk/Andre but what was so good about Snuka/Piper?

Still one of the greatest things i've ever seen. This is mine: I was about 12 at the time and a massive fan of the InVasion storyline (the first couple of months anyway) it was such a mark out moment. |

Pretty much any of the WWF Desire videos take me back, as well as when I see videos of WWF Excess.
I really liked that show (for some reason).

I can understand Hulk/Andre but what was so good about Snuka/Piper? A lot of posters were either not born yet or too young to remember. These videos that have been posted are what people remember watching live. |
