I thought that Austin had killed HHH when he dropped him from that crane.
Damn logic.

I thought Vince McMahon and the Corporation were the good guys and Stone Cold was the heel when I first started watching the WWF in 1998.

My ringtone is the Fabulous Rougeau Brothers theme.
Oh, and when Mr. Backlund was yelling at the screen in 1995, running for president, telling me the young idiot child that he was going to make school 12 months a year, I cried and got upset. Not knowing my politics at the time, and realizing that him being the president of the United States had no power over me being Canadian, and my home had to tell me that. Needless to say, I do appreciate anytime Bob Backlund is yelling at the camera and may scare future generations of children with his proclamations.

I marked more for Kerwin White than I have for anyone else since the WWF became the WWE.

When I was in Texas, there was no porn except for those lame Girls Gone Wild commercials at 2 in the morning. I got really desperate one evening and jerked off to Kelly Kelly when she was knocked down by Layla (this was back when she was managing Balls Mahoney). I closed my eyes to avoid seeing anyone else and to keep the mental image of her butt, but right before I finished, I opened my eyes to see the Miz doing that stupid taunt he used to do! :-( So you came on Miz dude, that's what you try to say?

The best part is that your little 8 year old brain persumably was okay with this and kept watching the show. I remember being around the same age and seeing The Ringmaster put the Million Dollar Dream on some jobber, and when he passed out I thought the move actually killed him, and felt a little uneasy as Ringmaster's music played afterwards. But then they probably cut to some Dok Hendrix voice-over video package and wiped it all from my brain.

Watching the Great American Bash 2006, I cried and dropped my first F-bomb calling Chavo a "Horrible f***" for hitting Rey Mysterio with a chair.
12 year old me was a huge Mysterio mark.

I was legit afraid of Kane when the character debuted. I really believed that he murdered the Undertaker and was so upset until The Undertaker came back to life right before Wrestlemania 14. I don't think I've ever marked out to anything in wrestling as much as that because I was so thankful that The Undertaker was alive.

I didn't watch as a kid because my mom wouldn't let me, so I missed the whole attitude era phenomenon. I knew a bit about it from playing the N64 video games at my friend's houses and such, and I knew who Stone Cold and The Rock were. But that was it.
So I got into wrestling for real in 2008. My opinions on who was and wasn't relevant were so scewed it was hilarious. I thought Mark Henry was a major star when I first saw him, and The Great Khali too. I remember hating Shawn Michaels because he was feuding with Jericho and I had no earthly clue who Shawn Michaels was but knew Jericho from the VH1 "I Love the (decade)" shows. Plus I thought Jericho was in the right when it came to the "facts" of the feud. When I rented Smackdown vs RAW 2008 I had no idea who Randy Orton was (Orton was out on injury when I had started watching), and put him in the same mental category as two other white guys on that roster I didn't know Chris Masters and Kenny Dykstra. When Orton returned from injury I was really confused about them treating him like a big deal and then finally realized that he actually WAS a big deal.
Those are the things that stand out but I'm sure I had other completely ridiculous perceptions.

On a similar note, when I first started watching, I assumed Ric Flair and Bob Backlund were old rivals, because they were both flabby, elderly little men in their underwear who were treated as being really important over past accomplishments from their younger years.

I once concocted a fantastically elaborate as to why Razor Ramon changed his name to Scott Hall, as I'd been asked by a friend why, and having no idea of IP and copyright, a tale of him being on the run from some Romanian cartel made sense. The auld mate never thought to question why Hall was still on telly if he was actually in witness protection, but it made sense to our 9 year old selves.
Also, I later learned the value of a simple 'I don't know'.

So does Miz like it in the face, on his chest, or on his stomach? NOTE: asking this as a joke, not in gimmick.

As a kid I really wanted to see Goldust become WWF Champion. And when I first saw him my mind didn't register him as an effeminate gay stereotype (even though I was somewhat aware of them at that age), I just thought he was strange and cool.
I thought Katie Vick was hilarious.

I really thought Hulk Hogan was gonna run for president, and hoped he had nothing against British people.

The first time I ever saw Hulk Hogan in around 1999/2000, I couldn't tell if he was black or white.
