In person, would have been WM24, Flair losing to HBK. People in the crowd were crying. It was a magical moment. As far as on TV, The Streak ending... I yelled "What?Wait? thats it? Its Over?" Like 10 times. I was there too. Definitely '1-A' for me.

I tried to pretend that the Lana/Ziggler/Rusev/Summer Rae storyline wasn't awful, does that count?

The Streak would definitely be it.

The Streak ending by far. I was watching with about a hundred people in a movie theatre and the second the three count was made everyone looked at each other with our mouth dropped, it was insane.
With me actually being there, off the top of my head, WrestleMania 24. During the Main Event I was rooting for Edge really hard, and when he hit the second spear before he got locked in the Hells Gate I thought he did beat the Streak.

The streak breaking. Being in NOLA & there was just total silence. It was as if someone died. Just very surreal. That arena was dead silent. I didn't actually think it was s clean 3, I was waiting for the Dusty finish, but nothing. I was in a Lesnar shirt and walking back to Bourbon St was not fun.

This is one of the few times I was super into something on WWE in the last couple of years. Seriously one of the most shocking moments in recent history. Just literally as I'm reading through this thread, I'm listening to a Star Wars music mix tape, and as I see Rollins turning on the Shield in your post - I'm listening to a piece of music that was used for when Anakin turns to the dark side in Episode 3 as he kills a load of young jedi. If that ain't fitting, I don't know what is. But personally for me, definitely the streak. My jaw just wouldn't shut. I love being shocked like that!

When you watch wrestling and put yourself in a mindset to be entertained and not be so cynical about everything, you can suspend disbelief in tons of places. Don't get me wrong, there is way more crap that is usually presented, but when the good is great, I forget about the IWC, dirt sheets, politics, etc. and my mind jumps into a similar mode as if I'm watching real competition.
With that said, the last time for me was the 30-minute Ironman match we just saw between Bailey and Sasha. Their previous match also did that for me, maybe even more.

Mine came from a really unexpected source: But, for a moment, I thought WWE got good again.... But this was the last time I spit out my drink in disbelief at what was happening on the screen.... Never thought Henry had this kind of talent in him - he proved me wrong, and I loved it! The whole angle sucked after this, though.... Take a lesson, WWE...... wrestling fans LOVE to be fooled! Did you ever see Scott Steiner do the same thing back in the day? Damn, I can't find that footage online, but basically, he was out for about a year from screwing his back up. He then cam e back un announced to pretty much cut the same promo Edge did when he retired. There was a lot of crying, and even though he had left as a heel, the whole arena started chanting "Scotty". But at the end of the show, WCW didn't do that good of a job having Scott Steiner swerve us because as he walked down the ramp with a lead pipe to clear the ring an help the faces, he just did the same old turn. But for the whole show, the audience totally bought he could never wrestle again — and they got really pissed when it turned out he fooled them... EDIT: Found it... it starts at 31:40 here: Hahaha... I love that evil son of a b!!!

most recently for me would be Sting at this last wrestlemania. Sure he showed up at Survivor Series before that, but to see him walk down a WWE stage and aisle and set into that ring, knowing his 14 year sojurn, knowing what he ment to NWA/WCW, to be that last big name hold-out. For the majority of the match I was in a suspension of disbelief because I was 9 years old again waiting for the Stinger to win on the edge of my seat. Then they cluster ed the ending

Lesnar returning. I heard rumors about it but never believed them. Even when they played his music I didn't believe it until I saw him walk down the ramp. It was funny because I immediately grabbed my phone to text my buddy about it who I hadn't spoken to in years at that point only to find that he had texted me first. We were both completely shocked.

The streak being broken and Daniel Bryan winning the WWE World Heavyweight Championship.
It was my first Wrestlemania and seeing those 2 things actually happen in person was just shocking.

The streak breaking and the NXT Takeover Brooklyn Sasha Vs Bayley match. A few others but I can't think of some from the top of my head.

I would say the streak, Sting's debut and the Roman vs Brock match. I thought Reigns was going to win due to the whole controversy with Brock leaving.
