I was born in 1988. And I watched before 1994, so probably around 92-93

I thought I voted in this thread allready, or was that PDD? Anyway I clicked 90's and I meant 99 is when I started watching... March of 99, I was in grade 7, I remember. My dad went to this WCW event because he was supposed to do buisness with WCW Management who wanted him to create a WCW lottery ticket which he refused to do.

I started watching before this but this is the first time I saw Nitro. It was the night of Jericho's anti canadian speech and all the Canadians were chanting his name "As I was walking down the streets of Toronto looking up at the blue skies... I realized something. Canada sucks!" It was funny cause of the transition he made from the cheers to sudden boos. He was supposed to be a heel anyway, but because he was Canadian they cheered him.

That night was also when Bret Hart came to the ring with a Toronto Maple leafs jersey and "retired" from wrestling, but called out Goldberg before doing so. Goldberg came out and speered him but was knocked out immediately afterwords with the use of a steel plate.



That was the first entire wrestling show I sat through because I was looking for my dad in the audience the entire time. But I did watch some wrestling in the early 90's and though Jake "the snake" Roberts was the man.

My first wrestling memory was the build up to the Hogan/Beefcake/Savage/Zeus match at Summerslam 1989. So, I voted '80s, even though I didn't get to be a "die-hard" fan until about 1991.

I think somewhere around 2000, because my friends were watching it and talking about it.

Probably became a big fan around early 2001.

I liked wrestling as a kid, but I got back into it during the big Mankind/Rock feud. I remember always wondering why people would boo the guy who was in shape, and cheer the flabby guy who looked like he'd get his ass kicked in a heartbeat. My friends always thought I was weird for cheering the rock on when everyone else was chanting "Rocky sucks"

watched bits and pieces in the 80's-90's.

Became a serious fan in 1999. Thanks to The Rock

Side note- I thought wrestling was lame around 1996-1998. My friends' used to do the crotch chop. I fucking hated that shit back then.

The 80's...Four Horsemen are the reason I watched wrestling. Hogan could go bite a dick for all I care. I remember Randy Savage was the first guy from WWF who I actually liked, and the only reason I liked him was I thought he might be able to beat and thus dethrone Hogan at WrestleMania 5....how wrong I was

Oh yeah...Hogan Still Sucks.

The first match I saw was Undertaker vs Kane Inferno match at Unforgiven in 1998, but that was a fluke via channel hopping.

Saw my first RAW in May 1999 (when Austin got strapped to Undertakers symbol).

First PPV (if you can call it that when its on Sky sports) was Over The Edge 1999. I came downstairs Monday morning and my mum said "that wrestler who wears blue died last night". I'm standing there thinking "Shamrock? Blackman killed him in the Lions Den?" Then GMTV news came on and said it was Owen and it showed footage of JR talking to the home audience, then footage of a press conference with Vince McMahon.

Now my brother makes jokes about that.
