Back in 1993, we never had Sky so I'd catch the odd episode round my cousin's but my earliest Raw memory is the Ric Flair- Mr Perfect "Losers Leaves" match. I was a huge Perfect mark & hated Flair (kudos to him) so I was jumping around like a loon after that match

My earliest memory was when Jeff Jarrett was actually wrestling in the US for WWE instead of wrestling in Mexico for AAA. Then there was the 1-2-3 Kid before he became X-Pac.

My earliest memory was the episode in 93 where Razor Ramon and Rick Martel won a battle royal to face each other the next week for the IC title. I also vaguely remember the build up to the All Americans vs Foreign Fanatics match at Survivor Series.
I quit watching wrestling for the most part after WrestleMania 10 and didn't watch again until the late 90's.

I remember a match between the young Shawn Michaels and Maxx moon-oh yes, one of the stupidest gimmicks in history. It was a REALLY early episode of RAW. That and I remember RAW once having ring card girls.

I believe it was a RAW when Diesel saved Micheals from Sid, which lead to some IN YOUR HOUSE title matches, I think?
Anything before 1998ish all melds into the same wrestling pool in my head. I can't remember what was on PPV or free tv. Hell, sometimes I can't remember what was WCW or WWF.

Aside from highlights from WWF Mania, the first full episode i saw was on July 5th, 1993. It had clips of luger slamming yoko, squash matches from bigelow and perfect, and the featured matches were blake beverly vs 123 kid (underrated match, worth checking out) and samu vs undertaker.

Someone attacked Stone Cold by breaking a cinderblock over his head. Later that night Chyna became the #1 contender for the WWF title (Summer of '99).

I remember seeing D'Lo vs. X-Pac for the European title in '98 where the title changed hands, so I can narrow the time frame down to 'some point during September '98'.

The Steiner Brothers Vs this tag team known as The Executioners. I wanted The Executioners to win but they lost. I think Gilberg was one of them.

When we moved house when I was about 14 we had to get pay tv due to our poor reception. I knew about wrestling and thought it was pretty cool but had never really watched it.
First day after the move I sat down with my Dad to watch tv. The wrestling was on and I assumed it was Raw. After about 5 minutes of switching on there was a bra and panties battle royal type match.
It was really awkward.

The earliest RAW match I can remember watching was the Loser Leaves the WWF match between Mr. Perfect and Ric Flair. I think it was the third RAW ever?

I was in the midst of moving from one town to another taking a well deserved stop and I remember the people we stayed at's house, they had the Brawl for All stuff on. I was already into wrestling but I hadn't watched in ages and that was the first time I saw Raw, I believe. I just remember seeing Droz and Bart Gunn with a new look.
