Going to cheat and say I have 2.
Wrestlemania 5 on tape while I was either 2 or 3 years old. I remember the main event of Savage vs Hogan. It was particularly the blood... for whatever reason the beating Savage was putting on Hogan seemed very dramatic. Hogan honestly seemed on the verge of death and Savage pummelled his bleeding body. I suppose it was a good thing I had never seen any Hogan match before, because well... I supposed I probably would have seen that finish coming.
The more clear memory I have was Davey vs Bret at Wembley on Scrambled television (ie. We only got the audio and could only see the scrambled image of the two on t.v.... oh the days of basic cable). I guess you have to give credit to Vince and I believe it was Brain as well as the story being told in the ring, because even only hearing the commentary it was dramatic. I was 5-years-old and I was into Bret because he was Canadian (and also awesome) and I cried when he lost. I specifically remember Bret being on offence for most of the match and thinking he seemed the superior wrestler for that reason, and was upset that it sounded like he got caught in a pin. Funnily enough, that's exactly what Bret was going for.
