SummerSlam 1992 is the biggest show I went to, it was actually the third WWF show I went to that year! While it was awesome to be there, we were sitting on the floor really far back from the ring so I only saw most of the event on the big screens. Still, it is cool to say that I was there.
I also went to most of the WWF UK PPVs that they did during the Attitude Era as well, One Night Only was certainly the biggest and the one that felt more like a legit PPV than any other. Rebellion 2001 was also a pretty big deal as it featured a rematch between Stone Cold and The Rock for the WWE title.

Haven't been to a really big show in WWE,like I said in the other thread. I went to the Raw before SummerSlam 06 and couple other Raws(this past weeks) and one house show.
I have been to some pretty big AEW shows I guess,the first Dynamite, Dynamite after Hanger won the title and a few others

It was my first live show! I was about 8 years old and thought Hogan vs Andre was the greatest thing ever. I mostly remember being so far away that I couldn’t really see the ring so I watched the show on the black and white scoreboard. Old county stadium was not a great place for a wrestling show. |

Biggest would be the Hershey Park Dec 1995 In Your House. My pop was a HR for his Westinghouse area and did lots of work with Hershey and employee days so the HR at Hershey would get us free tickets in the box seats. Not like suites but kind of like where the fake Bill Clinton was at Wrestlemania X in MSG.
I marked out hard seeing the hog pen as we came in. I was also super excited to see the added matches especially a pre TV Zip who I think was announced as "Flip"
I was at a WCW Nitro in late 1997 at Baltimore Arena and I guess in a could have been infamous way it was the next biggest show. It was the Baltimore version of the MSG curtain call show. It was the second to last match of Nash and Hall. I think it was a regular non, cage match with Nash and Michaels for Baltimore but it was the same card. If there was no MSG show and Baltimore was the last show for the two guys, we could have seen the Curtain Call.
