I went to a WCW taping at Disney's MGM Studios in 1995, but the card was forgettable. It may have even been 2 episodes they were taping that day.
My first WWF House Show was for the Smackdown brand on May 4, 2002, in Ft. Lauderdale.
Orlando Jordan defeated Sly
Chavo Guerrero & Lance Storm defeated Funaki & The Hurricane
WWF Cruiserweight Champion, Tajiri defeated Billy Kidman to retain the WWF Cruiserweight Championship
Hardcore Holly defeated Randy Orton
WWF World Tag Team Champions, Billy & Chuck defeated Al Snow & Maven to retain the WWF World Tag Team Championship
The Godfather defeated Hugh Morrus
D-Von Dudley defeated Rikishi
Mark Henry defeated Christian
Edge defeated Test
Undisputed WWF World Champion, Hollywood Hulk Hogan & a mystery partner (The return of the Rock) defeated Chris Jericho & Kurt Angle
On the same day, the Raw brand was at Insurrextion. We all know how that plane ride went.
On the very next Raw, the WWF Got the F out.

Nice, I LOVE talking about my first show!!
I remember a lot of mine, for the most part... Bear in mind that this took place in February of 1988. Geez, nearly 35 years ago. Anyway, this was a house show in Boise, Idaho.
S.D. Jones pinned Luscious Johnny V.
Outlaw Ron Bass pinned Brady Boone
Dangerous Danny Davis pinned Sam Houston
WWF Women's Tag Team Champions Jumping Bomb Angels defeated the Glamour Girls (Kai/Martin) by pinfall... I don't remember who pinned whom, or even the names of either of the Angels.
The Ultimate Warrior and Hercules Hernandez fought to a double count-out
Ken Patera pinned one of the members of Demolition (either Ax or Smash; memory's a bit fuzzy). Whichever member that did NOT wrestle was on the outside of the ring.
Hulk Hogan & Bam Bam Bigelow defeated Ted DiBiase & Virgil (with Andre the Giant) via pinfall. I'm about 90% sure that Hulk pinned Virgil.

My recollections of my first live event is really hazy...i can recall the Samoans, Snuka and Rocky Johnson main eventing a tag or 6 man tag match and Snuka getting the pinfall. My recollections of my 2nd and 3rd events are much more vivid..having better seats for those probably had a lot to do with it  WWF @ Staten Island, NY - Susan Wagner High School Stadium - September 19, 1986 Lanny Poffo vs. Sika King Harley Race vs. Salvatore Bellomo Cpl. Kirchner vs. the Iron Sheik WWF IC Champion Randy Savage vs. George Steele *Kamala and Tonga Kid also wrestled at this show WWF @ Staten Island, NY - Susan B. Wagner High School Gym - February 24, 1987 Brad Rheingens defeated Dave Barbie Salvatore Bellomo defeated Jerry Allen Tom Magee defeated the Red Demon Koko B. Ware defeated Frenchy Martin Jim Brunzell & B. Brian Blair defeated Brutus Beefcake & Greg Valentine Jake Roberts defeated Butch Reed |

My first wasn't a WWE card but a World Wrestling All Stars card. Rick Steiner defeated Mark Mercedes Devon Storm defeated Konnan Chris Sabin (TNA X Division) defeated Jerry Lynn (WWA International Cruiserweight), Johnny Swinger and Frankie Kazarian Sabu defeated Joe E. Legend Jeff Jarrett (NWA Champion) defeated Sting (WWA Champion) If were going by first WWE card then... Gregory Helms defeated Jamie Noble and Kid Kash Funaki defeated Sylvain MNM (Joey Mercury and Johnny Nitro) (c) defeated Paul London and Brian Kendrick Road Warrior Animal defeated Matt Hardy Bobby Lashley defeated Finlay The Boogeyman defeated Orlando Jordan Chris Benoit (c) defeated King Booker by submission Rey Mysterio defeated Randy Orton The Undertaker defeated Kurt Angle (c) and Mark Henry The way the ring was set up was different than usual. It was on a raised platform so the top of the barrier was level with the floor outside the ring. I was leaning on the barrier and during his entrance, King Booker's cape brushed against my hand. He looked down at me and yelled "don't you dare  ing touch me" then proceeded to stare at me for what seemed like an eternity. Because of the platform, he towered above me by several feet. It was legit terrifying. |

summerslam 2004
I grew up in rural Ontario Canada and wrestling was never a priority to my parents in terms of attending it live. in grade 8 I was friends with someone else who lived in Toronto who invited me.
I’ve been to a handful of house shows, was front row for battleground with Ambrose/HHH, and was recently front row for Toronto’s first AEW dynamite

I’ve known about Mountie getting a whole euro tour at the title challenger and often wondered how people reacted to that. And to see your first card is that specific tour is fun. |

I always remember Flair putting Bulldog over on Bulldogs's "turf". Just shows that Flair would put business before ego. Not many wrestlers of that stature would. My second event was Summerslam 1992. |

Orton winning the title that night was probably the biggest pop/reaction I've ever had as a fan. I was also much more prone to that kind of reaction at the time, only having been watching for less than 2 years at the time.
