Great thread.
My first ever was one week after Survivor Series 96. I was so excited to see my favourite wrestler, Shawn Michaels, the WWF Champion, for months. But alas, Sid beat him for the belt and Shawn didn't make the tour. Instead I got a 90 second main event with Sid pinning Faarooq. I did get one of the few Bret Hart Vs. Mankind matches, however, a great, red hot brawl.
Also got to see a show shortly after Mania 15 with Austin and Rock on opposite sides when both were red hot, a total joy.
Another favourite was a Smackdown in late 2003, with Eddie Guerrero being molten hot as a babyface, Brock Lesnar Vs. Undertaker in a very good little match, and featured a Rhyno promo where, to open the show, he told the audience to "shut the fuck up". I wasn't expecting that.
