Pretty sure I've told this story here before, but anyway....

I was in the second row for a WCW house show, I think in 1998 (right before Jericho jumped to WWF). The match was Chris Benoit vs. Billy Kidman. Anyway, remember when around that time, Billy Kidman would reverse an attempted powerbomb into a facebuster in pretty much every match he was in? During the whole match, I kept yelling "DO NOT POWERBOMB KIDMAN! HE WILL REVERSE IT! DO NOT POWERBOMB KIDMAN!". The people around me were laughing, but I thought the wrestlers were ignoring me.

Finally, Benoit set Kidman up between his legs for a powerbomb. I yelled "NOOOOOOOOOO!" and Benoit looked RIGHT at me before picking Kidman up and absolutely rocking him with a powerbomb, no reversal. It was amazing. I knew they had called that spot just for me.
