Or, the moments where it made us wanna stand up and say "f*** YEAH!" whenever something heroic happened in WWE. Any particular moments, guys?

Austin saving Steph was a great moment.
Just because he full on kicks ass the whole time. He flies down the ramp at Mideon, then beats the crap out of everyone with chairs.

The end of the RAW before SummerSlam 2010 when Jericho and Edge rejoin the WWE team.

The way it ended up may have not been too good, but I stood up when out of all of the people to stand up to the unmasked Kane, even after Austin had gotten his ass kicked (I think), Shane McMahon came out to defend his mom. Knowing full well that Vince wasn't going to give a damn.

That time Austin stunned the entire Alliance.
Yeah it was a complete burial, the storyline sucked and it was ultimately worthless since he joined them a few days later, but I marked like the 11 year old I was back then.

A good recent one was Sheamus coming out to challenge the unstoppable Mark Henry. One of the best face turns in recent memory, and an instant big fight feeling.

That's seriously one of my favorite "Stand up and cheer" moments in wrestling, especially with Ross on commentary adding, "He didn't do it for McMahon. He's doing it cuz it's the right thing to do!"

Hogan saving Macho Man from the Hart Foundation is a classic.

I dunno about "biggest", but my personal favorite was Backlash 2000. WWF Champion Triple H vs. The Rock with Stone Cold (who was still injured) and Shane McMahon as special referees, and Vince, Stephanie, and (I think?) Patterson and Brisco at ringside. Obviously Shane would be in Hunter's corner, while Austin would be impartial/in Rock's corner. Prior the match, Vince announced that, for some unknown reason, Austin couldn't make it to the show, leaving Shane as the only official. This essentially makes it The Rock vs. the entire McMahon-Helmsley faction in a No DQ Match.
Obviously, with the McMahons backing him, Triple H has the advantage for most of the match, which is actually great. By the end of it, Triple H pretty much has Rock beat, and is setting up for a Pedigree. The glass shatters, Austin's music hits, and the crowd goes CRAZY! Austin rushes out with a chair, nails everyone - sans Rock - in sight with it, and lays out Triple H and Shane. Linda brings out Earl Hebner (who was fired by Triple H and Stephanie earlier) as the replacement referee and Rock picks up the win with a Spinebuster and People's Elbow in front of an electric crowd. Just an amazing moment on a great pay-per-view main event.

Definitely Austin coming out to help team WWF kick the shit out of the Alliance. It still bothers me to this day that they went and blew that face turn just six days later. No one wanted to boo Austin.

This may not be on the same level as Austin saving Steph, but when Clay Matthews showed up to help Edge defeat Dolph Ziggler the Smackdown after the Super Bowl, the entire Resch Center in Green Bay went BALLISTIC.

Taker saving Liz.
Proved that he had a conscience
Underrated moment: Matt hHardy saves Lita. Remember, he turned heel on her months earlier and had fun making her life hell.
It's the Night after WM20, Matt Hardy and (Gail Kim?) vs Val Venis and Lita. Kane comes out to "sacrifice" someone. The heels flee, Val is taken out, leaving Kane to stalk Lita. Lita cries out for Matt to help her The camera cuts to Matt on the ramp, his conscience starts getting to him, and he suddenly tears off his jacket and charges the ring. And starts wailing on Kane, he then ushers Lita to saftey before being laid out. He got his ass kicked, but he saved Lita.

The end of the RAW before SummerSlam 2010 when Jericho and Edge rejoin the WWE team. This was such a great moment. Honestly, Nexus losing kinda sucked but only for the way they lost. The WWE team were riding a huge wave of momentum and nobody wanted to see them lose. It would've been better if it was the final, Nexus ending match though, and happened much later. Nexus should've ended with every big name on the roster, Daniel Bryan included, just barely beating them. As for a hero moment, I can't think of any specific moments, but Angle during Lesnar's heel run was a great heroic character because he was up against such a monster.

Kurt Angle finally beating Stone Cold for the WWF title at Unforgiven 2001 in Pittsburgh. Not even being an American, that was a great moment for an 11 year old mark.

Again, although I was 11 at the time and admittedly not "smartened up" or whathaveyou, it never made any sense to me that I was supposed to suddenly boo Kurt Angle the night after he saved the WWF at Survivor Series. That, and I was supposed to love Stone Cold again. Didn't get it at all.

Austin against the Alliance
Kurt Angle vs The Alliance. The Milk truck. The WCW title match vs Booker.
Kurt had some cool moments back then.
there should be more, but I'm kinda drawing a blank right now.
