Wrestlemania 6 was the first memory I have and I watched it sense. That was the first show I remember watching. I remember renting a crapload of videos from different places. Shnucks (SP?) A gorcey store had the biggest selection at the time. I can't remember how many times I rented The Royal Rumble 93. My brother told me a lot.
I also remember seeing Surivior Series 92 a lot. Which is good for the HBK vs. Hart match. I remember Hollywood Video had a lot of different stuff compared to the other stores. Like WCW PPVs from 95 and 96. Just so many different places I could go around my house that had different events or videos (Like Super Tapes and ext).
I can't remember what location I saw it and rented it from. I didn't did Uncesered 96 were Hogan and Savage took on everyone. That wrestlecrap moment. Lets just say after Wrestlemania 6 I got the bug big time.

MDM match from 1988. It was against some jobber, but the point was the DiBiase was great at bringing out people's emotions and was an amazing wrestler too. I only wish we had someone like that now.

Wrestling Classic was a great video, great tournament all the way through. Best match on it was Davey boy Smith v Steamboat

Not really a match, but a segment....the one where Earthquake broke Hulk Hogan's ribs on the Brother Love show. If we are talking specific matches....the earliest I remember is some British shows involving Big Daddy, Haystacks and a lot of squash matches.

Steiners vs Hase/Chono at Clash of the Champions XV (I think) was the first match I was ever captivated by the work and not the gimmick (I was 8).

I don't think there was one match per say that really made me a die hard wrestling fan, although I was a super nWo mark. But I can't really credit them since I was watching wrestling since 1992.

I'd have to say the Rock/Mankind I Quit match from RR 99. I was a fan before that (my earliest wrestling memories are Hogan/Slaughter from WM7), but that match is what turned me into a die hard fan for life.

Y'know what's funny about this? It's a match that most people say is lame, but I guess it was just the appeal or something about it..
Hogan/Sting.

The 1st match I ever saw was the Undertaker/Yokozuna Casket Match at RR 9...4 I believe. I only watched it on and off for a few years after that, then when I saw the Taker/Mankind HIAC at KOTR 98, that's when I truly got hooked.

I started watching when I found out a kid from my school was gonna be on TV. I'm talking about the now-infamous Sean who the Million Dollar Man told he'd give $100 to if he could dribble a basketball 15 times.
For those who don't know what I'm talking about, DiBiase kicked the ball out from underneath him when he got to 14 which made him (the kid) run out of the ring crying...... and we clowned the F**K outta him for crying on national TV.

I had watched wrestling for a couple years before this match, but it was the match that made me really care about wrestling and my favorite wrester. Bret Hart vs. Mr. Perfect SS 91.

The Summerslam '92 Main Event between Warrior and Savage. Not the match itself, but the run-up to it with all of the intrigue and suspense about who was working with Perfect and Flair.

WWF Royal Rumble 2000. My brother was starting to get into wrestling and taped this off Channel 4. I watched it with him and thought it was awesome, most notable Hardyz v Dudleys, Cactus v HHH and the Rumble itself, I'm a big Rumble fan.

1990 Royal Rumble. That's the earliest one I remember.
