The Invasion angle. After WCW and ECW died in 2001, I thought I would never hear mention of either promotion again, great time to be a wrestling fan back the !!!
Rhino piledriving Sandmans wife through a table. I found it very over the top! Surreal moment. Wasn't too used to Man on Woman violene then.
Brock Lesnar's botched Shooting Star Press... Although it wasn't ment to happen, I think it was the cherry on top of that match with Kurt Angle.
Bam Bam Biggelow putting Taz through the ring. HOLY crap HOLY crap!!!
Seeing WWE booking a hardcore match with Cactus Jack and Orton at Backlash. I thought I would never see tacks in WWE again!!!! Awesome.
Flamming tables. In general. Be it ECW, FMW, CZW, or any other promotion. Extreme!!!

Biggest might be Punk winning the World title the first time. The guy was the "king of the indies." No one saw him being much on anything under Vince's watch. So when he won the World title it was completely shocking. Thought he'd cash in and lose and go on to have a nice IC reign or something.

I can list dozens and dozens of moments. I'll just list ten for now:
- Hulk Hogan's heel turn in 1996. Everybody associated him as a face from his run in the AWA till his early WCW run. When Hogan turned heel, I feel that is what began the 90's Wrestling Boom. Nobody saw this coming from a mile away.
- Seeing Vince & Shane McMahon on the last episode of WCW Nitro. Who would have thought this would ever happen at the time. Pure shock which led to the end of an era.
- Eric Bichoff debuting and subsequently being on the same stage as Vince McMahon. Eleven years later, I still can't belive this happened.
- Steve Austin's rise to the top in the WWF. Who would have thought in 1993 that Austin would be a major player in the late-90's. Austin becoming the WWF Champion at WrestleMania XIV is one of my all-time favorite moments.
- The Montreal Screwjob. One of the few screwjob's that took place on such a grand scale. Let alone on pay-Per-view to boot.
- Debut of Dean Malenko, Chris Benoit, Perry Saturn, and Eddie Guerrero in the WWF. This would become one of the last major acquisitions in the Monday Night War-era.
- Taz vs. Mike Awesome for the ECW Championship in 2000. We had a WWF guy defeat a WCW guy for the ECW World Heavyweight Championship. Still can't fathomed this even took place.
- Bret Hart being inducted into the Hall Of Fame and his subsequent RAW return in 2010. Bret's return in 2010 brought me back after not watching WWE for several months.
- The debut of The Nexus and their attack on John Cena. I'll give this another viewing soon.
- Most recently, Bruno Sammartino's induction into the WWE Hall Of Fame. Being there live at The Garden makes me glad I witnessed it in person. After so many years being anti-WWE, Bruno's induction and being on good terms with them now is something I thought would never happen.

Ric Flair showing up on WWF television with the NWA World Championship Belt. The Montreal Screwjob. screwing people out of titles had happened in the past, but never on such a major PPV stage before. Hogan turns heel. something,honestly, NO one at the time was expecting. Hogan was THE quintessential good guy of wrestling for nearly 15 years. Hogan vs Sting - Starrcade 1997. all these years later and I STILL can't believe I watched them ruin the hottest angle in wrestling history! Hell in a Cell, KOTR 1998. 'nuff said! The Radicalz. 4 major WCW stars turning up on Raw at one time? just wow! Vince buys WCW. literally a hell freezes over moment. Nailed it on all these points for me! I'd also like to add: - Bischoff and Heyman working at the same time for the WWE. Very weird. - Bret Hart in WCW. Just wrong |

Since everything I would've said has already been mentioned, I'll go a similar, yet slightly different route...
I never thought I'd attend a PPV that had Ric Flair, Hulk Hogan, Sabu, and D-Generation X on the same card. But SummerSlam 2006 in Boston was just that. I felt like I was watching my life as a wrestling fan flash literally before my eyes. Roddy Piper was the name that hooked me onto to wrestling in the first place, but at that show, I was a Hulkamaniac for one night only.

Miz being in the main event of a WrestleMania. I don't mind The Miz, I do actually enjoy him sometimes but he had no business in my opinion of being in that position.

Never thought I'd see God in a wrestling angle This. Also, can't believe that Shawn didn't win the title for a short run before his retirement |

Since I watched the new Foley DVD recently, I still can't believe he got threw off the cage. And J.R.'s commentary was brilliant. It put Foley into a whole new stratosphere in wrestling.
