Seeing stuff on TV is kool, but if you are there for memorable moments live, then they will always stick out for you...

The coolest thing I got to see live was probably the Austin's team vs Bischoff's team classic Survivor Series match very recently. All of us there were rooting so much for HBK at the end. It was a great match really.

But whose been to moments like Foley off of the cell, Hogan slamming and pinning Andre, Kennel in a Cell (jk), Wrestlemanias, and stuff like that?

<font color=8307ff><b>Hardy Boyz final match together on a house show was pretty cool (they beat Raven and Justin Credible, next night Matt turned on Jeff and went to SmackDown). The main event was Undertaker and Ric Flair vs. Eddie Guerrero and Big Show (I think that's what the teams were) and it was a pretty good match, good effort all around. Also, Jericho vs. RVD at a live Raw was good. :y:</font></b>

The Raw where Vince was gloating how he bought WCW and was going to put it on the shelf. Then Shane musics plays, but hes not in Cleveland, oh no. Hes in Florida on the final Nitro to announce that he "bought" WCW from under his father. It was just awesome live. How Vince played the crowd naming off the WCW wrestlers to see if the crowd thought he should sign them. Just being there knowing history was going down, and thinking it was going to lead to the possible greatest angle ever was just awesome.

And indeed we know how great it turned out....:shifty:

I've been to so many shows in the past 12 years I wish I could remember..

Watching Steph and Vince slop Trish was pretty funny..
Rock/HHH in the I Quit match when Chyna turned heel..
Having Brock Lesnar yell "FUC</>K YOU!" at me during the tag match with Tajiri vs. Edge and Rey was funny as all get out...

I almost forgot about the first ever Tag Team Ladder Match at No Mercy 99'. It was Edge and Christian vs The Hardy Boyz in the final round of the Terri Invitational for the Tag Team titles. It was amazing to witness live. Great match :y:

Sabu putting someone through a table, at the one ECW show that I made was pretty cool.

RVD doing the five star over a standing Fonzy at the same show was pretty cool to.

I guess I'd have to say the Smackdown in Dallas where vince made HHH have like 4 matches or something. HHH is my favorite wrestler so I enjoyed seeing him that much, plus I got to see a casket match, and inferno match, a brahma bull rope match, and a couple of other things all on the same night.

Rikishi on top of the cage at Fully Loaded was kinda cool, as was the HHH/Jericho match.

Honorable mention goes to the triple cage match they had on Nitro towards the end of WCW. It had Nash, Sting, Jarrett, Steiner, Booker T, and a few others in it. You'd think if it was so memorable I'd remember all the participants huh? Anyway it was pretty good.

I was there too. It was bad.

The best was seeing Jeff hardy get speared in mid-air by Edge, at Wrestlemania X-7

Another good one was watching Goldberg and Bam Bam Bigelow fighting in the grass, at Nitro.

Bret Hart vs. Mr. Perfect for the IC title at Summerslam 1991. Everything else pales in comparison to this.

Triple H vs. Cactus Jack in a Street Fight for the WWF at Royal Rumble 2000.

Steve Austin vs. Undertaker for the WWF title at Summerslam 1998.

Brock winning the Undisputed title The Rock at Summerslam 2002.

HBK making his in ring return against Triple H at Summerslam 2002.

Kane unmasking on Raw this summer.

Just to name a few.

Brock screwing up his SSP at Mania 19. I knew he was gonna do it, but even more, I knew something bad was gonna happen. Then we saw him in the ambulance as we left Safeco. The whole stadium smelt like hops and barley.

Rocky dissing the McMahon-Helmsley faction during the Kid Rock performance for a 2000 edition of RAW. They were saying on the radio that Stone Cold will be returning for that show. Instead we got Kane. LOL

Keep in mind, I've only ever been to two shows, but...

HBK and BDC winning the WWF Tag Team Titles from Yokozuna and the British Bulldog at an In Your House in 1995. It was supposed to be Owen and Yoko, but Owen was "late," so they replaced him with Davey. Owen ran in to interfere, but got planted with a Jacknife and the Two Dudes With Attitudes won the match. It was overturned the next night, since Owen "wasn't a legal participant," but it was still a big-time mark-out moment for me.

Well, I just went to my first show last year, and been to a couple since then. So far the moment I remember most is Brock had just turned heel and beat the hell out of Zach Gowen on SmackDown this past summer. Even though I was around 12 rows up where Tazz/Cole sit, I could still hear the nasty shot Brock gave to Zach's head with a chair.

I haven't been to many live events, but seeing Angle beat Lesnar on Smackdown last March was fantastic, the "WTF???" atmosphere in the arena was awesome.

I've only been to one live event, that was Raw in my hometown of Seattle the day after WM19. I saw Goldberg come out and spear The Rock. After the show went off the air, The Rock put on quite a comedy act. "Damn, did you see that? That sumbitch hurt!" Then he pointed out a "fat guy wearing a white t-shirt" in the crowd and asked where he was from. The guy answers and The Rock goes "California?!" and the whole arena booed the guy. The Rock told him to take his "fat ass back to California where he belongs" and that got over huge of course. There was more but I don't remember it all but it was quite funny and I don't really even like The Rock.

BTW, I live in California now. :D

Maybe not the best... but my favorite was watching the Undertaker fly across the ring and over the ropes in NO Mercy.. and landed on the FBI. The funniest tho was at a Raw in DC this past year. HHH threw his water bottle in the crowd..(gee spitting that water just never gets old does it :roll: ) the person threw it back and it bounced off HHH's head.. good stuff. He was dragged out kicking and sceaming, but damn I bet he thought it was worth it.

I've been to a bunch over the years. Best would probably be King of the Ring 94, which really started off the Bret Hart-Owen Hart Feud. First in the Bret Hart-Diesel Match everyone was stoked because of the return of Jim "The Anvil" Neidhardt and he came in and interfered in the match, saving the title for Bret. Then Later in the evening he comes out and interferes in Owens match, allowing Owen to claim the "King of The Ring" title. Then they reveal their diabolical plot-Neidhardt only "helped" Bret so Owen could get a title show at Summer Slam. Other memorable moments were WCW Starcade 97' Hogan vs. Sting-the atmosphere was Electric. It was Hogan-possibly biggest star ever in WWF-vs Sting-possible biggest star ever in WCW. An episode of Raw in Baltimore-Vince McMahon and the stooges(Patterson and Briscoe) come out to introduce the referee for the Austin-Dude Love Match. They call him out twice and he doesn't come out. Vince McMahon goes to the locker room "to get the referee". After a few minutes Patterson and Briscoe get on the mic and say-now introducing the special guest referee-Vince McMahon's Music hits and out comes Vince McMahon in a refs suit, shocking everybody in the arena. At the end of that show there was a dark match after the cameras went off the air-a rematch from Wrestlemania-Undertaker vs Kane. That match was awesome as shit. Another episode of Raw-At the beginning of the show The Moshers and ICP come out for a match-they're all in the ring-Stone Cold music hits-he comes out and stuns all 4 of them. Later in the night Stone Cold hits Undertaker over the head w/ a shovel and locks him in a walk-in refrigerator. At the end of the show Kane and Austin stuff Paul Bearer in a Sewer.

Probably Flair v.s Triple H v.s Randy Orton, really good old school match. Or, this WCW Nitro I went to in 99, it was all around great. It had, Nash v.s Giant (Giant's last match), DDP v.s Scott Steiner, Flair v.s Curt Henning, Hogan came out with the Hell's Angles, thats all I can remember, aside from it ruling.
