Mine is simple:
Vito wearing a dress on SD
Having dad walk in and having to randomly explain why this man was wearing a dress. Sometimes I really hate wrestling ...

Watching the Miss Rumble 2000 contest with my grandmother. Try your mother, father, and seven year old sister. THAT was my experience with that.

The only show any of them every watched was the Rumble so they gathered around to see it. Dad seemed to be enjoying the bikini contest as the rest of us sat there awkwardly, and it only went downhill from there when Mae Young came out ... I could of died of embarrassment.

Katie Vick. Yeah, it's easy to say, but it's show obvious why. Yeah, this. I watched this particular episode of Raw with a friend who wasn't a wrestling fan. That made it even worse.

Freshman year of college with my girlfriend, September/October 2004. Kept my interest in wrestling a secret from everybody until that point. My dorm didn't get Spike TV, so my only access was Thursday's Smackdown.
While channel surfing with her one Thursday night after a late class and a dinner, I landed on it to see an in-ring promo with Rico and Charlie Haas. Mildly-to-pretty entertaining as Rico's just that entertaining of a guy, but then they're attacked by Heidenreich with no semblance of storyline or narrative. For whatever reason, there's no commentary and Heidenreich chases them both out of the ring as they run to the back. This was when the WWE was obsessed with painfully long camera shots.
It made absolutely no sense to me as a regular viewer, so I can only imagine what she thought of this as an example of their regular programming.
She breaks the silence with "That wasn't so bad at first, but after the guy ran in, I just don't understand how anybody can continue to watch this."
I didn't have an answer, so we channel surfed on.

Some of the Billy and Chuck stuff was a little rough. Katie Vick of course. Some of the Late WCW crap was awful too. Nothing ever seems that bad until you watch it with your parents or girlfriend...ESPECIALLY if you had to talk them into watching it in the first place.....

Oh, yeah, another one was watching any Eugene segment with my father, who's name is, you guessed it, Eugene.

Me and my dad watched the episode where it was revealed Mark Henry was shagging Mae Young. I was 12, and he instantly asked why I watch this stuff.
Bless him, he would watch it with me after that though. I remember watching Summerslam 2000 with him.

The Benoit Murders...I was a huge fan of Benoit before this and would always go to bat for the guy as one of the greatest of all time and then that happened

I grew up in the country so we didn't have cable. My grandparents had DirecTV so me, my sister and my cousins would go there every Monday to watch Raw in their downstairs family room while are parents and grandparents talked in the kitchen.
Nearly everytime my Grandpa or Grandma would stop down and say hi, there would be some Divas thong match or Austin getting crucified or some toilet humor promo. I would feel compelled to say "You know, it's not always like this"
Pretty much 90% of wrestling is embarrassing when you are watching it in the company of non-wrestling fans.

Luckily my family had no interest in wrestling and I was allowed to watch it in peace, but my sister did walk in on Rikishi giving someone a stinkface. She also thought I was gay once because I had a poster of The Rock on my wall.

Ass is hungry, It eats pie. That whole diva search thing around that time period was just embarrassing.

I was a teenage WWF fan in the Attitude era. My mother had banned, of all things, The Simpsons from being viewed in the house a few years earlier, and the ban still stood. Whenever she was near the room and I sensed things taking a direction for the less than tasteful, it was time to check out what was going on at channel 23(TNT).
Worst thing she ever heard or seen was Austin saying "I'm going kick your ass." She responded to that by scornfully saying, "That's some pretty language they're using." Luckily, I was able to hide most of what was going on from her.

Katie Vick seems like a standard answer but my Katie Vick story was live at the arena it debuted... So it was me, my friend, my mother, and younger brother and about 10,000 others.
This year at WrestleMania, I had a buddy (overtly love UFC type) come to hang out toward the end of the show. Of course he arrives after the Taker/HHH match and the first thing he sees is the Brodus Clay dancing segment.... He did say that he sort of enjoyed Cena vs The Rock (which I believe he came over to see but won't admit).
My most embarrassing moments were when I was 13-14 and dad did not allow me to watch WWF (mom didn't care and he would leave for work as Raw started). Smackdown was on UPN and I only had this tiny tv with rabbit ear antenna. Imagine being walked in on some kind of bikini contest on a fuzzy tv that you are trying to hide watching at 13 years old......

Watching Ready 2 Rumble. That one movie set wrestling fans back to 500 B.C.
