Earliest memory
 

Feeling a little nostalgic after watching some old tapes yesterday so was just curious to know what peoples earliest memory of wrestling was

Mid 2002, I turned the TV on, it was on a sports channel, RAW was on, didnt even know what it was. Benoit was crossfacing Bubba Ray Dudley to death, not stopping even after the match ended. I started watching a bit later.

Awwwwww :'(

Mine was matching Wrestlemania 9 with my dad as a wee nipper

my biggest memory of that was Bret losing the title.

Surely your biggest memory of WM 9 should be Hogan triumphantly beating yokozuna to finish the event

:D

After mania 9 the next ppv i watched live was Fully loaded '99, i still love that ppv just because it was the end of an era in terms of vince Vs austin (for a while) and the beginning of one for me.

"Somebodys gonna bleed, Somebody's gonna leave"

lol

Excuse me i have something in my eye.........

:mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

my earliest memory was watching Survivor Series 91 on sky movies with my dad when taker pinned hogan for the title :'(

though i am sure alter of helmsley will love that

Bret cutting an Anti-US promo in Summer 1997. I marked out huge

i recently got given the tape Summerslam 1999 with the Triple Threat Match for the WWF Championship: Stone Cold Steve Austin vs. Triple H vs. Mankind with Jesse "the Body" Ventura as Special Referee

brought back lots of memories HHH always looked better with a sledge hammer than the title haha

Flipping through the channels and seeing Sgt. Slaughter cutting a promo (I was all about the GI Joe's then) and I havent stopped watching since.

So Karlberg (if that is your real name)

What your earliest wrestling memory

Probably something to do with Hogan

Ummmm my first memory (which made me a 123 kid/X-Pac fan) was when 123 Kid and Razor Ramon lost a tag match for the titles. Then in the locker room you seen them argueing. That is why I started watching wrestling because that match was amazing to me atm. And yes I am still a X-Pac fan.

I remember the Cat vs Disco Inferno in WCW, and Cat just kicked him in the head and pinned him.

I already mentioned what my first memory was (yes it was hogan) and dont be silly you know what my real names is you scream it often enough

:rofl:

Hmmmmmmmmmm.....Mankind putting the Claw into Undertaker's mouth and touching his soul. That is my earliest memory.

Sledge hammer?

oh you mean steph when she was thin and slightly innocent

I heard she weighs 600 pounds now and thats whys she's not on t.v...

....that and her annoying ear spitting voice

:rofl:

Of course i do

I'm suprised your not a taker fan in that case

Yeah, your right


Sorry Lucy

[QUOTE=Altar of Helmsley]I think steph has an angelic voice just like i think linda is charismatic on the mic and hhh title runs are the most exciting thing in the world.

(at this point men drag karlsberg away from the keyboard and bundle him into the back of a paded wagon)

lucious lucy god get it right :mad:

Wouldn't go that far love

More like lanky lucy

Don't worry folks i think he's gonna be just fine

"now wheres that needle?"

Those were the days

If the 91 series was to make me a taker fan then i would probably be a flair fan as well been as he helped him win.

Now i am sure you dont want the thought of me as a flair fan

The doctor gave someone a bag when hogan was checkin on the knocked out ref then hogans oppnent KOed hogan with the bag. I was pissed.

What everyones worst wrestling moment?

Earliest I can remember was Survivor Series 91, but I must of seen before because I knew what was happening ;D

Jake The Snake's snake was sucking on Macho's arm ;).. interestingly enough it was on sky movies.! Weird.

Unfortunately I wasn't able to watch the end of the Undertaker vs Hogan match as I had to go bed :(.

This goes back way old school, to the NWA days, but my first memory is of the Four Horsemen beating up Dusty Rhodes and throwing him through a limosine window in like the mid to late 80's. That's the first one I can think of anyway.

Every monday when raw starts i bet you can guess why

Not as weird as the wwe being on channel 4 and then they realised that the show contained violence.

Did they even watch it before they bought it, what did they expect!?!

They allow shows like brass eye to be shown though, during prime time.

Sorry, old wounds, im just bitter

Worst wrestling moment? Gotta be the Owen Hart accident. It's been 6 years and I still can't believe that happened. :'(

I remember going to school the next day and hearing everyone talking about it, at the time it was a bit over my head, but when i got into wrestling more i actually watched the ppv and i just felt numb. I watched the tributes the next night on raw and thats when i was reduced to tears.

People say alot of bad things about wrestlers personally but most i what i saw on that raw was genuine and very moving.

That was a sad moment for all fans just makes you wonder how the people who set it up can be so neglegent considering the risks that were involved

Rest in peace Owen James Hart.
:(

My earliest memory was Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat losing the IC title to The Honky Tonk Man, who I proceeded to hate for years.

Hey, I was a 6 year old mark. :P

flipping through the channels, Money Inc. & Mr. Hughes vs. Steiner Brothers and Kamala

You guys think it was wrong to keep the show going?

first moment ...... seeing andre the giant the first time .

BEST earliest moment .....the warrior beating hogan for the title !!!! (HUGE warrior mark!!!)

My first moment was a WWF Magazine featuring The Hart Foundation. First video moment, Earthquake destroying Hogan on the Brother Love Show I believe it was on. For some reason, I became an Earthquake fan.

As far as stopping the show after Owen's accident, people were pissed that it kept going, but on the other hand people would have been pissed if it stopped.

I remember crying. I was like 12 even..and still...*sigh*

wrestlemania x7, i think that was the first wrestling event i ever watched, followed by stone cold beating up booker in a supermarket. i just find that supermarket thing funny. wait that has nothing to do with the topic.

:nono:

<font color=white>Hulk Hogan vs. Randy Savage (Hulkamania Forever) Xmas '91?</font>

Earliest memory? Taker vs Kane Inferno match Unforgiven 1998. LMAO at Paul Bearer getting a drum stuffed on his head. Just channel hopping and it was on.

Worst memory? Owen. I came downstairs and my mum said "that wrestler in blue's died". My first thought was "Shamrock?" But then it came on GMTV news saying it was Owen. It showed footage of JR from the event explaining what had happened, then Vince in a press conference. I ran upstairs and told my brother.

Later that day I was on a field trip and we came across a canadian in a WWF Attitude shirt. I asked him if he had heard what had happened. He hadn't. I told him. He couldn't beleive it.

Didn't even see Raw Is Owen.

RIP Owen. 6 years. Wrestling makes time fly.

-EDIT- WOOOOO! 100 posts!

Worst Wrestling Moment: JBL winning the title.

Earliest Memory: Goldberg getting tied to a truck.

my earliest memory was the one that got me watchin WWF.

Summer of '92 on WWF superstars. Berzerker was beatin up on Undertaker with the shield and sword. He laid Undertaker down, he lifted his sowrd and drove it down. Undertaker rolled out of the way and the sword was left in the ring. And they showed a still of the sword stuck in the ring. After that I was hooked on WWF and hooked on Taker.

it was very wrong to keep the show going

I woulda stopped the show.

Anyways.... earliest memory.

I remember flashes here and there...and I remember wrestling being on when I was a kid...

However... the only really specific memory I can think of is when Papa Shango made Warrior puke. I didn't watch wrestling then really, but someone else was watching it and I saw it and I was just like "Ew" and I was all scared and stuff. :shifty:

A bit before WM 12 and I watched the Undertaker and became a fan. I was looking forward to Diesel vs Taker at WM 12 the most, not the Iron Man match. Taker became my first favourite at that event.

LMAO :)

Enjoy

yeah I bet we all remember a few flashes :D

My earliest memory was being a kid watching the wwf in the late 80s. First wrestlers i remember were the bushwackers :shifty:

i remember seeing the last part of the steve blackman vs goldust match on sunday night heat goldust won then steve blackman beat the shit out of him with a kendo stick

Earliest memory was Luger beating Hogan for the belt on Nitro with the torture rack

Earliest Memory: Stunner heard around the world

i remember Luger slamming yoko...that was way cool!

what segment was that?

lol

lol

ROFL

LMAO

My earliest memory isn't anythign specific. I think it might have been a Hacksaw Jim Duggan match in the late 80's, watching it with my dad. He got me into it very, very early. I must've been, like, 10 years old. I've been watching it nonstop ever since except for two short periods (late 96/early 97, and late 03/early 04).

roflmao
