My older brother got a decent job in 94 so he got sky sports in the UK around that time (my parents were not interested in paying for the extra channels lol), i remember watching that years WM and KOTR PPVS, no surprise I became a big Bret fan. I remember watching Summerslam with Bret vs
Bulldog but it wasn't until 94 that i can seriously remember watching it every week.

It was 1988 & I was 8. Sky TV was new where I grew up & my Da got cable because he was burned out with poor reception from the aerial. It was late 88 so I was exposed to the Mega Powers & their breakup. To this day it remains one of my favorite stories & WM5 just blew me away. Fan ever since. Apter magazines & attempts in vain to tape nwa/wcw off HTV @2:35am Sunday morning followed 🤣🤣🤣 Do you remember in around 1991-92 there being wrestling on Eurosport in the middle of the night? I’m not sure what show it was (maybe something from Japan, unless the German leagues were doing TV), but I remember certain characters from it like 2 Cold Scorpio, and Fit Finlay before he got his US makeover. |

I don't....I do remember USWA & then GWF being on Eurosport very briefly though. Remember watching Eddie Gilbert, Jarrett, Embry, Patriot etc |

Just watching it with my father in the mid 70’s until he passed in 1990. The first match I can still remember watching was Chief Jay Strongbow and Billy White Wolf vs the Executioners (Studd & Kowalski) in a best of 2 out of 3 falls for the Tag Team Championships.

Not sure exactly
My earliest memory is being at mom and stepdad’s house and he likes to watch it a little bit, and they had a Here Comes the Pain demo that I liked to play with my brother
I think I got into it around 2009/2010, probably 2010
