The Benoit Mania 20 celebration was a modern day version of what happened ten years earlier. When Bret Hart won the title back at Mania 10. Everyone came down ringside and held him on their shoulders. Now that brought a tear to my eye.

Owen comes down the aisle. Everyone's like "c'mon man, come in and celebrate". He just stands there, looking pissed. DAMMIT OWEN GET IN THE RING!!!

When DDP first won the WCW World Heavyweight Title

When Vince Russo stripped the title from Hogan and announced the Booker T vs Jeff Jarrett title match

Everytime Double J broke a guitar over someone's head in WCW

When Meng put Goldberg in the Tonga Death Grip and had him beat but for some reason let go of the hold at the last second.

When Bam Bam Bigelow debuted in WCW and called out Goldberg

When Scott D'Amore screwed Amazing Red out of the X-Division Championship (I actually started shouting angrily at the TV)

ANY Tazmission EVER, If I saw one again I'd still mark out like a Schoolgirl at a Justin Timberlake concert

even as a "smark", I can still mark-out.

Here are my favorite moments:

-Austin stuns Stephanie to get at HHH before their No Way Out '01 face off.
-anytime Benoit puts on the Crossface (though, one of my favorite crossfaces was the counter of the Big Show chokeslam into the Crossface)
-Benoit's CLEAN win over HHH at WMXX (I was saying "TAP, DAMMIT!!" at the screen)
-the return of ECW on RAW
-when Jericho "won" the WWE title on RAW
-Austin and The Beer Truck
-Kanyon going on his Diamond Cutter rampage while impersonating DDP in WCW
-when Lance Storm won 3 titles in WCW and then renamed them with Canadian/metric motifs
-when Hulk Hogan landed the Plop Drop (Leg Drop) on The Rock in that tag match between nWo and the Rock/Austin team
-the Guerrero-RVD ladder match on RAW
-when The Rock won the WWE title at Backlash 2000
-when Trish Stratus finally went through a table at the same PPV
-when DX almost invaded a WCW show

The Giant chokeslammed DDP through the WCW entryway platform, and I seriously thought that DDP (my favorite wrestler at the time) was going to be hospitalized and done with wrestling.

I remember a Nitro when all throughout the broadcast they were saying that the President would be making an appearance at the end of the show. It ended up being Hollywood Hogan and he ran his mouth about being the next President of the United States. The sad thing is, I actually thought he was legit.

Sting comes back to WCW after a long, long absence and wins the World Title from DDP in the first hour of Nitro. This was the only time I literally jumped out of my seat and started celebrating during wrestling. The title was put on the line later that night in a fatal fourway match in which DDP won the belt back. I was so fucking pissed that I broke my remote control.

Rey Mysterio vs. Ric Flair - World Title Match -
It was during one of those Nitro broadcasts in Florida when they were outside and had the ring in the middle of a swimming pool. I was the biggest Mysterio mark back then, and Flair is such a great wrestler that he had me and every one of those fans on the edge of their seats, because we actually believed that Rey might pull it off. Mysterio hit a beautiful huricanrana on Flair and covered him for a 2 count before Arn Anderson pulled the ref out of the ring causing the DQ finish.
