Like for the comedy or shock factor as they haven't seen it before.

I'll start with the obvious

<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/BvTNyKIGXiI&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/BvTNyKIGXiI&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>

What Juan said. And if you try and show them actual matches, you make yourself look worse.

Any video featuring Stone Cold cutting a mean promo, then beating the tar out of whoever. My gf got into wrestling after viewing a stunner-marathon. Also, promos of The Rock usually do a lot of help.

I have gotten a few friends SLIGHTLY interested in wrestling by showing them ECW stuff. I think they are more amused at the fact that no one gets killed in the barbed wire match between Sabu and Funk.

Someone who totally unfamiliar with wrestling isn't going to know the difference between Mr. Perfect v. Bret Hart and Tom Brandi v. Aldo Montoya. Holy shit matches or moments are really the only thing that get someone's attention.

Mankind coming off HIAC is the clip I've shown to most of my friends. That tends to suck them in a bit.

I've used the "It's real to me dammit!" one before for comic relief but I would definitely use this if I was trying to get someone interested in wrestling.

Also Roddy Piper promos work too. Anything that transcends just being wrestling works. Austin, Rock and Roddy Piper are all funny/entertaining without it having to do with being wrestling.

Ultimate Warrior promos. My gf is now in love with this guy.

And a lot of bloopers, like Booker calling Hogan a "nigga", Steiner vs the English language, Sid Vicious' "half the brain" etc.
