Was watching Summerslam 91 for the first time last night and the Savage/Elizabeth wedding came on. This was such a huge thing at the time, that they made out it shouldn't be missed, and it got me thinking.
I want to try and come up with a list of matches/angles/segments that EVERY wrestling fan should see. These can either be funny segments or amzing technical matches or whatever.
So list, 5 max, what you would think that EVERY wrestling fan should see. I'll give you till next Friday or something and then add it all up and post the list :-\

Hogan V Rock X8
Vince announcing he purchased WCW, only to have Shane come out and say he bought it.
TNA - AJ Styles V Chris Daniels V Samoa Joe (I think it was from unbreakable)
Kurt V Benoit from RR 03 (or was it 04)
The Rock V Austin X7

1) Bret Hart vs The British Bulldog (Summerslam 92)
2) Stephanie McMahon turns on her own father at Armageddon 99
3) Whether I like Hulk or not, the ending of Wrestlemania 9, where he runs in and pins Yokozuna after being challenged.
4) Triple H splits up the wedding between Test and Stephanie by announcing he had already married her when she was drugged...cheesy, I know, but fun to watch.
5) Pipers pit where he takes the coconut and smashes it over Jimmy Snuka's head.
Moments that were "pipped", mainly because they do get played to death and most fans are aware of, or have seen them.
i) Shawn Michaels throws Jannetty through the barbershop window.
ii) Foley Gets thrown off Hell In A Cell
iii) Steve Austin sprays The Corporation with beer.
I thought about including Billy and Chucks "gay" wedding in their, purely for the press speculation and then the dramatic twist.
iii) Foley's first title victory

1) Montreal - duh!
2) ECW's first PPV Barely Legal - started a revolution and laid the groundwork for the next generation of wrestling entertainment and the Attitude era
3) HBK nails Jannetty with a Superkick in the Barbershow - Should be used as a tutorial in "How to turn heel 101". Set the standard and went onto conquer the world.
4) The Shockmaster's WCW debut - just goes to show the very best of the worst in pro wrestling can be memorable too. WRESTLECRAP!
5) The entire Wrestlemania X7 PPV (esp Rock vs Austin) - Wrestling as a global brand at it's pinnacle.
OR
5) WCW Nitro debuts - Lex Luger debuts and the Monday night wars begin.

I feel sorry for anyone who never got to see ECW live. I was able to go to the last November To Remember before the company shut down. I've been to numerous WWE house shows, TV tapings, and quite a few PPVs, including Wrestlemania 18, and ECW was far and away the best show I've ever seen.

1. The Hogan Heel turn BATB 96 was it?
2. Angle vs. Benoit RR 03
3. Benoit vs. HBK vs. HHH - Benoits Title win
4. Hogan vs. Goldberg - The night Bill won the belt (Biggest pop ever IMO)
5. Eddies Title win at NWO, Big man vs. Little man underdog 101 match and a very emotional moment.

Edge & Christian vs the New Brood (Hardy Boyz) No Mercy 1999
One of the best ladder matches of all time, which is saying a lot because there have been so many great ones. I'd put it in the top three somewhere.
