Biggest names there were Styles and Nakamura

Would have to be Hogan at SummerSlam 2006 when Orton put over the young upstart My first show was the Raw before SummerSlam that year. Like others said I've seen pretty much anybody from 05 to present in WWE and AEW. Sting,Triple H,Finn,HBK,Edge,Seth,Omega,BD and AJ are probably the ones I remember/meant the most to me that I've seen live.

To the archives!!! This is my 1st and most recent WWF/WWE live events.  My first and last WCW shows.   I've been going to wrestling shows for 35 years and have been fortunate to see all the big names over the years. One year I got a ticket to what I thought was going to be a regular house show and it turned out to be a Wrestling Challenge taping. Got to see Andre for the first time at that show.

Hoo boy. I've been going to shows since 1988, and I've seen (off the top of my head): Hogan Savage Andre Warrior Flair B.Hart O.Hart HBK Taker Rock Austin Sid Shamrock Nash Hall Luger Giant/Big Show DDP Goldberg (was at his debut televised match in SLC) Booker T Kane Mysterio Triple H Mankind/Dude/Cactus Vader Eddie He Who Shall Not Be Named Sting Angle Jericho Cena Batista Orton Rollins Reigns Ambrose/Mox Bryan/Danielson and of course, the biggest of all, Orange Cassidy w/Danhausen
I'm sure that I'm missing a bunch

All the greatest from the 80s with the WWF. Piper many times, Hogan, Andre, Bundy, Studd, Savage, Tito, Flair, all the ones you can imagine.

I think most big names that have been active from 1991 to current, except Ultimate Warrior and Lex Luger. And I’m not sure about Yokozuna, Kevin Nash and Scott Hall actually. Hadn’t seen Hogan live until WrestleMania 35 though, so I’ve only seen the Hulkster’s latter-day pose on stage era. Never saw Andre wrestle but saw him manage the British Bulldog at my first WWF live event (and Andre was the only wrestler tall enough to slap hands on the elevated part of the aisle where I was sitting).
I think these were the first times I saw some of the bigger names:
Bret Hart (I think a 1992 live event where he beat Shawn Michaels) Macho Man Randy Savage (live event in 1992 vs Ric Flair) Sting (WCW UK tour 1993, I don’t remember any of the matches) Undertaker (live event in 1991 vs Roddy Piper) Shawn Michaels (that same live event, it had a Rockers tag match but I don’t recall the opponents) The Rock (live event in 1996, about a week after Survivor Series, he beat TL Hopper) Triple H (attitude adjustment tour 1999, a week or two after WrestleMania 15, beat X-Pac) Steve Austin (either that WCW show in 1993, or WWF show in 1996 where he beat Aldo Montoya) Mick Foley (either 1993 WCW, or the 1996 WWE event where he wrestled Bret Hart for the first time) Edge (he may have been on the attitude adjustment tour, if not then Rebellion 1999, I think in a tag team triple threat with the Hollys and Acolytes) John Cena (SmackDown taping in 2005 where he beat Renee Dupree) Roman Reigns (WrestleMania 33 I think) Kurt Angle (live event in 2017 where he teamed with the Shield against The Bar and Samoa Joe) Goldberg (WrestleMania 33) Brock Lesnar (WrestleMania 33) Eddie Guerrero (SmackDown taping in 2005 where he turned on Rey Mysterio during a match against MNM) Logan Paul (WrestleMania 38) Cody Rhodes (I think vs Batista at Raw taping in 2008, if not then during Legacy vs DX feud the following year)

I once put together a list of talents I've seen live. It's a little out of date now, but just going off of that, these are some of the more notable names (by the company I saw them in). There's a bit of crossover (I've seen AJ and Daniel Bryan in ROH and WWE, for example), but it's a decent lot:
WCW: Bret Hart, Lex Luger, Sid Vicious. Bam Bam Bigelow WWE: Chris Jericho, Ric Flair, Steve Austin, Hulk Hogan, Shawn Michaels, Triple H ECW: Rob Van Dam, Rhino, Justin Credible ROH: AJ Styles, Daniel Bryan AEW: Kenny Omega, Cody Rhodes NJPW: Kazuchika Okada, Jay White, Kota Ibushi, Jushin Thunder Liger, The Great Muta

No doubt, as far as Starrcade ‘97 - what an amazing thing to be so close for. And what an amazing picture to take. Well done, sir.

One of the biggest pops I've ever heard live was for summer Rae, so there's that Sasha at a house show was probably up there for one of the biggest pops I've ever heard and I was there for the first Dynamite where you couldn't hear 90% of the night.

Throughout the years I've been lucky enough to see the names below compete live. I think the only big name I really wish I could have seen live would be Sting. And though I'm sure I've seen Bryan Danielson/Daniel Bryan live, I can't recall if he was involved in a match. It would be fun to see Danielson in action as well.
The Rock Stone Cold The Undertaker Triple H Shawn Michaels Chris Jericho Ric Flair Bret Hart (albeit, it was his controversial US title win over The Miz...but was still cool to see him live) Eddie Guererro John Cena Edge The Big Show Randy Orton Batista Booker T Hulk Hogan Scott Hall Kevin Nash DDP Kane RVD Goldberg Kurt Angle Brock Lesnar Vince & Shane McMahon AJ Styles Kevin Owens Seth Rollins Dean Ambrose Roman Reigns Charlotte Becky Trish Stratus Lita

Just goes to show this board doesn't speak AT ALL for who people like, no matter how hard some of them want to believe they do

Ive been to live shows since i was in kindergarten and at the very first in your house ppv and a couple raws. Andre was never on the loop for any of those shows back in the day. Wcw never came around here much if at all so i didnt see alot of them until they jumped ship.
