-When I was six years old, I cried when Hulk Hogan lost the WWF Title to the Undertaker (Survivor Series 1991). That shook my world.
And, to prove that the more things change, the more they stay the same...
-When I was 20 years old, I got all misty eyed when I heard the crowd reaction for Kenta Kobashi at the New Yorker Hotel in ROH (Joe vs. Kobashi, Oct. 2005). That shook me as a fan.
Also, when I'm at a live show and begin to really mark out, I start jumping up and down a little bit, like I used to when I was a little kid.

I didn't cry on the Eddie tributes but now I feel upset. Most of the songs on my Mp3 player are wrestling ones. ;D I wish I was at any Wrestlemania.

Whenever i meet up with my younger brother, who is also a huge wrestling fan, we try and fit in as many wrestling references into normal conversations with non wrestling fans as possible. Its becoming a game of one upmanship.
I was actually really annoyed when Austin turned heel at mania 17.
I really dont like HHH much, but weirdly have a begrudging respect for the way he has put himself in a position of power.(that one hurt).
And although i think Eric Bischoff is a swine, some of the things he did really make me laugh looking back at them.
Oh yer and i hate myself for not being interested in wrestling when ECW was at its peak.

I'm 20-
I Cried when Hogan lost at wrestlemania 6 and never liked him sense.
Bret Hart is my favorite wrestler ever. I cried after wrestlemania 12 and still hate HBK for it.
I really like Randy Orton and am to embarrassed to admit it to my friends.
I have writing my own promos I cut on my friends from time to time.
I am a smark. but I realize I like everything about wrestling anyway.
Eddie dying was sad but I'm tired of hearing his named chanted all the time. me and my friend chanted EDDIE during the playboy pillow fight at WM.
I once broke my bother's collar bone when I was 5 and he was 3 wrestling.
I dont want to be a wrestler but I think it would be a thriller of a life time to just wrestle one match in front of a crowd in a ring.
I'd let Matt Hardy Borrow my Dashboard Connfessial Cd if it would cheer him up.
I find the Spirit Squad Gimmick so as enjoyable as any gimmick i've seen in a year.
I cant stand the King or Jr.

Im 24 and still sometimes dream of being a pro wrestler I think Bret Hart was slightly overrated. I was a HUGE fan of the David Flair, Crowbar and Daffney storyline in WCW. I also still mark for 'Real American' I'm 26 and I still sometimes dream of being a pro wrestler. Everything else - exactly, yeah. Me too. Especially the Flair/Crowbar/Daffney one. Also, David Flair wasn't that bad in the ring. I've seen much worse.

I am 20
I miss the Attitude Era and WCW
I never liked Eddie and still don't care about him
Smackdown is horrible and I refuse to stay home and watch wrestling on Friday nights
I am not really a wcwmadmanfanatic, fanantic I just play one on the internet
ECW was always horrible when I saw it.
I perfer good storylines and gimmicks over technical albility
Japanese and Mexican wrestling matches are boring
I think Cena and Orton are entertaining
Coach wasn't as bad as people said
Joey Styles was horrible
I liked the Invasion storyline
Except for a few guys TNA is unwatchable
I once shot a man in Reno just to watch him die.
And my goal in life is to have sex with a mother and daughter at the same time.

WWE is boring and I hate it. The only reason I watch WWE is because it's wrestling and I love wrestling. WWE doesn't know how to use talent.

Not that I'm necessarily embarrassed by this but, I think that Ric Flair is nothing more than an overrated comedy wrestler & one of the most tedious performers to ever set foot inside a wrestling ring.
I can't stand peole who never watched ECW in their entie lives but are hyped for it's comeback? For what reason? You didn't care about it when it was around but you think it'll be great now?
I mark for Rob Conway.

I didn't cry when I heard about Eddie Guerrero, but I was holding back tears when I saw the tributes and the crying wrestlers(Benoit's reaction was heartbreaking).
Just remembered one. My old roommate(who didn't care about wrestling) and I jumped out of our chairs in celebration when we saw Alex Wright upset Ultimo Dragon for the CW title years ago. The only other time I've been genuinely excited by the finish of a wrestling match was when Benjamin beat HHH the first time.

I'm 34. WWE and TNA are mired in hackneyed storylines. The wrong people are getting pushed while hard workers are getting Snitsky punted to mid card land. Vince McMahon is a genius but will burn in hell for the evil that he's done. I wanted to be a wrestler until I was twelve years old and my friend caught me with a Randy Savage flying elbow in the eye, knocking me out for several seconds and turning me off from ever wanting to do it. Women's wrestling used to mean something. Now it's a beauty pageant mixed with the Octagon where some of the contestants DON'T come back. Male cheerleaders who if they were ACTUAL cheeleaders would be cut because they're never in sync is WRONG. Wanna be Lou Bega "Mambo No.5" mouthpieces who speak in phony Hispanic accents is WRONG. But a D-X reunion is okay...let's just see it happen already. And an evil Cena. Thank you.

-Luna Vachon really scared me when I was a kid. Anytime I watched my WrestleMania IX video, I would cover my eyes when they showed the footage of her ambushing Sherri in the trainer's room.
-I wore a Burger King crown to a WWE house show during the Lawler/Hart feud. I was afraid Lawler would see it and take it.
-I liked the Dynamic Dudes, and also wrestlers with futuristic gimmicks, like Max Moon.
-I still listen to WrestleMania: The Album.
-I liked Crush's Hawaii gimmick, especially his entrance music.
-I sorta like the Union Undergound theme for RAW. It's much better than SmackDown's, IMO.

I'm 21 I've never paid for a ppv, but when I was a kid I used to listen to it on scrambled channels. (Now that spilling the beans.
In middle school we had a nWo click and we would attack people for no reason. Half of the people didn't even watch wrestling. After that, WCW, dx, and NOD clicks followed suit.
I've never like HHH or HBK at anytime.
I was really upset when Hennig died. I was also more upset when Candido died then when Eddie died and I didn't even remember that he was a bodydonna. I thought he was a beverly brother. I'm black and don't listen to rock, but I loved all the ECW themes. RVD and Snow's theme was the best.
Raven is the BEST WRESTLER ALIVE.
I hate Vince McMahon with a passion and wouldn't hesitate to fight him if he looked at me wrong.
I watched Raw in 03' and that was the worst stuff on t.v.
And I used to think about going to the WCW powerplant when I was young.

I think Benoit has already fought his last match.
He's just mailing it in now.

One more
Steve Austin's ECW interviews were the only time he was even remotely entertaining.
