I remember reading an old WWF annual and preferring Savage and Warrior over Hogan, then some time later I went to a Blockbuster and got my mum to rent a best of Bret Hart and a best of Undertaker video for me. Good times!

I always watched with my brother, but, when I was 4, I had an operation, and that Saturday, I watched wrestling with my mom. It was around WM8, and the Flair/Savage/Elizabeth storyline was interesting to me. My brother called me from home, and we watched the show together (last year, when I spent a night in the hospital, he brought me dinner, and he, mom and I, watched Raw together)

Hogan and Quake while flipping through the channels seeing a recap of Hulk's "injury". Was hooked from the first moment.

It was the late 70s. Was at my grandmas and I saw George The Animal Steele on tv. So the next weekend I searched every channel we got to find him,Grannie had cable we didn't. So I didn't find him but I found some Mid South.

Once I got pulled in, I was a Hogan kid but it was Randy Savage that made me a fan. The sunglasses and sparkly ass robe were the absolute shit to childhood me.

Flyin' Brian Pillman. I saw him take on some job guy when I was 4, and I became obsessed. The way he moved around the ring and the neon trunks (pre-Bengals trunks) made me think he was a superhero or something.

Damien Demento.
I was exposed to wrestling before I wanted to be. You see, when I was a kid, my dad took me to a WWF house show. I'd never seen wrestling before and didn't come out of the event a fan (I didn't get what was happening), but the only thing I remember about that event was seeing Damien Demento.
I got into wrestling years later by viewing it on TV. Damien Demento is my earliest wrestling memory.

I think the reason I can't get mad at Bret Hart ever is because he was basically my childhood hero and the reason I'm on this forum today.

Ricky Steamboat in his Dragon 1991 run. As a 10 year old catching WWF Superstars on Sky for the first time in the U.K, the guy who blew flames really stood out. You gotta hand it to Vince - he knew what would visually appeal to the kids in those days. 91-93 will always be my favourite era.

Randy Savage As strange as it sounds now, my earliest memory of wrestling was when I was probably around 3ish, seeing my Dad and my cousin playing (or attempting to play, let's be serious) Wrestlemania for NES, and I remember seeing the portrait for Savage, and instantly being drawn in by his look. Sometime shortly after, I actually saw the man on TV and that was it, I was obsessed with the characters, the colors, the sounds. Savage's first Hasbro figure was my first figure I ever got, followed by Hogan and Warrior and it just blew up from there.
