I was trying to think the other day of the first time I watched wrestling and what happend.
I finally remembered my earliest memory was, I think, some sort of contract signing going on with Vince and Ric Flair and then Stone Cold coming out and stunning Vince. Then I remember Scotty 2 Hotty coming out, and I asked my friend Aaron why he was dancing and he said, "I don't know, I geuss he's just happy."
But the memory that sticks out most in my mind is when Shawn Michaels was found in the parking lot knocked out from getting thrown into the car windshield and then it being revieled that it was Triple H. I HATED HHH after that!

First time I watched WWE was the night Jeff Hardy did that huge swanton bomb onto Randy Orton. I remember seeing that and flipping out

Hulk Hogan & Brutus "The Barber" Beefcake vs. "Macho Man" Randy Savage & Zeus at SummerSlam '89
That's the only match I remember from that PPV as a child as I believe it was my first time watching wrestling.

The first actual vivid moment was DX attacking Rock and bringing him backstage with Big Show as well and just beating on him. Then their bus pulls up and they put Rock in a little side door of it and they all drive off. Big Show is left behind just smiling at the bus and waving. The Rock appears behind Big Show out of nowhere from the heavy exhaust from the bus, with I believe was a 2x4, and wacks Show in the back. It was so awesome!

I have three early memories of late 90's luster. One is Undertaker making his way to the ring eerily, and slowly, while he stops on the top of the ring steps and "makes" lightning hit the ring post - who could forget his rolled back eyes? The second is the badass Billy Gunn getting his money maker massaged with poison ivy instead of massage oil. Third is the one I find having the most trouble remembering. It was someone (maybe Jericho or Triple H) saying how they crashed their "Boeing 747" into Stephanie's grand canyon. +1 for whoever can validate that or even find a video clip!

Highlights of the Iron Sheik winning the WWF Championship from Bob Backlund. After that I remember watching Hogan win the title a month later from the Iron Sheik. After that I was completely hooked

Steiner brothers destroying two jobbers during a Saturday morning show (or replay). Early 1994 most likely.
