Just wondered how long people on here have been wrestling fans, and what some of your best/fondest memories are as a fan? For me I first started watching in 1991 as an 8 year old, stopped in 1994, then got back into it in 1999. Favourite matches of all-time would include Bret Hart v Mr Perfect (SS 91) Hart v Bulldog (SS 92), HBK v Ramon WM10), + Hogan v Yokozuna at WM9 (even though most wrestling fans seem to hate it! ).

The outdoor one? Not too great a WM, but loved the ending as a Hulkamaniac back then.
Was also a big fan of The Rockers as a kid. Was therefore distraught at what happened on The Barbershop (Michaels throwing Jannetty through a glass window to officially end the team). Really wanted them to stay a team and never thought Michaels would be a star on his own.

Hulk Hogan Screwed Bret Hart!

Yeah, was admittedly a very dodgy ending, especially the way Hogan then (allegedly) refused to put Hart over at King of the Ring, instead dropping it to Yokozuna.

What I could never work out was that I remember Hogan Wrestling earlier in the night (possibly with the Mega Powers) in Yellow trunks, then by the time he won the belt, he was wearing Red tights. What was the point in getting changed into different ring attire?

It was a proper steel cage too, not the ones made out of chicken wire you see these days :lol: A friend taped it and brought it round when he slept over and this was the match it was at. He left it and I think I still have it somewhere.
After watching that I was hooked and would fall asleep watching Raw every Friday night. Used to love the tag division with the Hardys, Dudleys, Too Cool, Crash & Hardcore Holly, Headbangers, Edge & Christian, Acolytes and New Age Outlaws, my favourites were Kai En Tai, their promos were great :lol:
Raw Is War was a great programme and provided most of the WWF's greatest moments IMO, such as DX pretending to be the Nation Of Domination, Austin making Vince McMahon wet himself in the middle of the ring, Val Venis getting it on with Ken Shamrocks sister and the Undertakers ministry of darkness.
