I want to say it was VHS copies of Survivor Series 1996 and Summerslam 1996.
My local video store had them and I would rent them all the time until my dad just made me copies using 2 VCRs.

Survivor Series 2003 was the first I owned, but I had rented DVDs for years before then

Our local video store was called Reel Action Video. Every other week or so, I would rent Rampage '91. It got to the point that the manager told my mom we were the only people that ever rented it and sold it to my mom for my 8th birthday.
A few years ago when DVDs became the norm, I bought the vast majority of my Hastings wrestling VHS tapes for $.99 each.

I always like that WM 4 set, and wanted to get it (even though I already had the event on tap). the movelty of having it be on 2 tapes was a big thing back then,and I loved that gimmick of opening it up to make a Hogan: LOL! ONLY $39.99!

I used to record PPVs and even Raw every week. I would record over it if the episode was lame. I still have Jericho's debut and his title win in Penn State on VHS.

The first VHS I ever watched was WM6. The first I ever personally owned was WMX.
My first WWE DVD was Backlash 01.

First tape ever rented was Wrestlemania 1 and the first I owned was probably the WWF Wrestling Classic from 1985, which was a King of the Ring tournament with JYD winning. After that I started buying all the Coliseum videos for $59.95 and the Turner Home Videos through PWI but I don't remember how much they were, probably $39.95.

Break Down In Your House. Got it around late 98/early 99 when I was 6. I had really gotten into wrestling over the last year and asked my mum if she could get me a WWF video.
The first DVD I got was Backlash 2001. I got that in early 2003. I remember being really excited to watch it back in 2001 but forgot to record it and was absolutely gutted the next morning so it was nice to finally get to see it.

Survivor Series '91, my stepbrother gave me it in early '99 & from the moment I saw the Cobra bite Savage I knew I'd be a wrestling fan for life....even if it did give me nightmares lol.

I can say that I "owned" every single WWF pay per view or assorted tape from the inception of Coliseum Home Video up until around 2004, when I started to wane on the product for the second time.
