At what AGE did you start watching Pro Wrestling?

[demolitiondev]

So as I read the other Thread about the Wrestling-Eras in which we started watching, I was more interested at what Age fellow Crappers started Watching Wrestling.

My Uncle brought Home a Tape from Wrestlemania 8 (Wrestling was pretty difficult to catch over here) and was pretty excited about it.
That was 1992 and I was shy 4 Years of Age at that time.

Got a Tape of Hogan vs. Warrior a week later, and was hooked since, with a single break from Wrestling from late 1996 to Survivor Series 1998.
So I missed the Screwjob, the Rise of Rock, the DX-Army, and the Austin Era...

[Rapper & Actor Sammy Davis III]

Let's see, I wasn't into wrestling before I saw WWF, and I don't think I really saw WWF until I got to stay up late enough to watch Saturday NIghts Main event. I don't remember being into it at WM 3, but I was very much so by WM 4 when they had the Clash on TBS. I was 9-10 that year.

[KEJB]

Honestly since as far back as my memory goes. 3,4,5 somewhere in there.

[deltarich]

Around 7-8 years old

[Dat Dude]

My first memory of wrestling was when Savage was world champ. So I would've 3 years old by then.

[Junkenstein]

I woulda been about 8.

[mainsupreme]

WM 8, 6 years old and the biggest Hulkamaniac around

[Free Hat]

My earliest wrestling memory is of watching Hogan/Warrior at WM6, which was a few months before my third birthday. In all likelihood I was watching earlier than that, but that's as far back as I can remember.

Sorry but I feel like I need to put this in Color...

It's amazing how young most of us started watching, yet how many are so appalled by the PG-Movement and the pandering to the Young Audience. It's just the next "us" that just started watching.

About 7 years old.

[agent817]

I may have caught glimpses of it here and there when I was still in the single digit age range, but I didn't start following it until I was almost 12.

[jrcz]

WM 25... that's 14.

[Gopher Mod]

I've been watching as far back as I can remember ('91). I was around 4 years old at the time, and both major feds (WWF and WCW) were available in the area.

[sher]

Technically, I was watching it around 8-9, but that was more of a 'my big brother's watching it so I will too so that I can have an excuse to beat him up while we're playing' thing than a 'OMGWRESTLINGISAWESOME!' thing. So instead I have to say 20, since I only got back into it this past November.

Edit: And now after seeing that everyone else was pretty much a kid when they started, it almost feels embarrassing to admit that I started liking it at 20. I guess my immaturity is showing itself, haha.

[beautifulscars85]

i really cant remember how old i was when i started to watch it so i just chose 12 to 16 but i for sure know that i was not a teen when i started to watch it ((but i do wish i could remember but icant ))

[ben:friendship frog]

I started watching around Summerslam '99. Making me 11 years old.

I was in a social club in the afternoon with my parents and a family friend, sipping my coke and one of the recap shows came on Sky One. I was fascinated and the family friend was a casual fan. He told me straight away that it wasn't real, as usual with casual fans some of the facts are slightly off. He explained the Montreal Screwjob, but he said that Bret was fast counted rather than the submission ending that happened.

[Clash, Never a Meter Maid]

I was about 7.

[Deleted]

I've been watching since I was born apparently, both my older brothers loved it then (one is still a bigger fan than me) and my father was a massive fan of it from the 70s through to the mid-90s. The first wrestling era I remember is around 1992/1993, not full memories but enough to know I enjoyed it. So 2/3 years old.

[Kitty Shamrocks]

Probably around 5 years old, with Hulkamania runnin' wild. Then I stopped for a long, long time until a little before the Attitude Era. Stopped again for awhile and came back around the time Eddie died.
