Lifelong fans that we are, we've learned to suffer through the terrible parts of Raw and Smackdown, shrug, complain about them on here and then enjoy the good stuff. That's us.
But what about those poor unfortunate individuals who DON'T have a lifetime experience of enduring horrible moments in wrestling?
Imagine you sat down for the first time to watch Raw and see what the fuss is about, and the first thing you see is the Miz and Flair, a frog faced dork and the oldest man in the world dancing around the ring shouting woo at each other. Instant switch off, never to be seen again.
So what other moments would be the worst possible time to start watching WWE?

I think if the first thing someone saw was the Gobbledy Gooker, they would never even consider wrestling as a viable form of entertainment ever again.
If going more modern? JBL IS POOPY.

I picked up WWE again right before the guest host era started. Soooo, that.

The last Xmas episode where an 89 year old woman gave birth to a tattooed midget. Then again that might be the best time.

I recall when I was still in rowing, during one of our away races, I commandeered the hotel room TV for Smackdown, and it was the May 21, 2010 episode, right before the segment where Hornswoggle was on the Peep Show and Christian was teaching him "Canadian".
My teammates thought I was as retarded as Hornswoggle sounded.

Late November, 2001.
You see evil mega-heel Stone Cold who seems to be both best friends and bitter enemies with the play-by-play guy, and his weird crew including an Olympian, a pair of tits, a chubby kid in a baseball shirt, a breakdancing black guy and a guy in weirdly airbrushed tights.
You see their opponents, a long-haired rock star who seemingly doesn't play music, a Samoan with twitching tits and a huge eyebrow, a biker who is named after a profession he has nothing to do with, a red guy and a giant who despite being the biggest guy in the fight is also the biggest pussy.
Also, seemingly they're all related and their grandfather is interested in the fight some reason.
What the f***, you think. What an array of misfits. I look foward to seeing them square off.
They have a huge confrontation in which the evil bastard Stone Cold loses to Samoan tits, but doesn't lose his title for some reason.
The next night on Raw, Stone Cold is suddenly super-popular instead of evil bastard, grandpa is hated, the Olympic hero is booed and someone else's grandpa appears making a lot of high-pitched noises and we're supposed to know who he is for some reason.

I think bringing in guys like Foley and Flair who - by today's standards aren't really made for television would be bad for a first time viewer to see.

The whole debacle that culminated with Dawn Marie accidentally "killing" Al Wilson via sex. The funeral segment is awesome because you can see Al Wilson corpsing (in the "SEND FOR THE MAN" manner and not the way he was supposed to be corpsing) the whole time. |

The image of Mae Young and Fabulous Moolah pretending to be dogs is forever burned into my retnas.
