Booker T shared this on Twitter recently. Do you all remember yours? Mine was 1992 WWF house show at the Hearnes Center in Columbia Missouri. The main event was the British Bulldog beating Papa Shango for the Intercontinental Championship. But the highlight for me was Razor Ramon and Macho Man going head-to-head. The good ol’ years.

So mine was in the 2002 at The Scope in Norfolk Virginia. The main event was The Rock and Triple H vs Kurt Angle and The Undertaker. The highlight for me was when DDP won the European title from Christian because after his match he celebrated in the crowd and when he got to our section he chugged a beer with a guy to the left of me and accidentally spilled a little bit of it on me so he let me hold the belt for a few seconds before continuing to celebrate with the rest of the crowd. Actually my first and only show.

Gosh, mine was a tag match featuring Tajiri and the hometown kid Yo-Hey in Yoka, Hyogo prefecture Japan. I forget who they were going up against, but it was a memorable night! Personal highlight meeting the performers at the merch table and seeing Wrestling New Classic women's champion Syuri in action.

I remember going to a WWF show in like, 1994. It was at a nearby high school gym, which is hard to fathom in today's world.
I remember Razor Ramon vs. Diesel, but I think Lex Luger main evented against someone. Josh may be able to help since he was there with me.
Koko B. Ware, Earthquake, Kwang were also all there.

I still have pictures from the show somewhere, but I couldn't tell you a single match. I know Luger lost to whoever he worked because I remember us being annoyed that he wasn't high fiving fans on the way out and one of our moms said it was because he was upset that he just lost. lol

And now we know it's because it was a doped-up maniac The loop in Tennessee from that time period seems to be: Kwang defeated Koko B. Ware Earthquake defeated Barry Horowitz Mabel defeated Irwin R. Schyster Diesel defeated Razor Ramon Lex Luger defeated Crush So, maybe it was Razor that was upset he lost, not Luger. Not sure. Either way, super lackluster line-up. lol

I think 2009 was the first live show I ever attended. It was a TNA house show in Tacoma and the main event was Jeff Jarrett and Team 3D vs Beer Money and I can't remember their partner, possibly Matt Morgan. I know he was there just not sure who he wrestled. Also saw AJ vs Suicide vs someone else (maybe Daniels?) and AJ gave me a hug after the match because I had a sign that said I was there to see him fly. Still one of (if not) the best shows I've seen in person.

My first show I ever attended was NWA wrestling @ Memorial Hall in Kansas City, KS. Late 80's.
Harley Race vs Ric Flair was the main event. Shame I don't remember a bit of it, I was 4 or 5 years old.

Went to RAW 1000 in St. Louis with Jaz He wore that Del Rio shirt that had his head on a coin and some guy in a Dolph Ziggler shirt yelled at him in the parking lot. The main event was John Cena vs CM Punk where John boy cashed in his MITB and was the first person to lose in their cash in. Then The Rock showed up and tried to do the People's Elbow to Cena and Punk dove in the ring and clocked Rock, kind of starting his semi-heel turn at that time. I remember being absolutely bummed as fuck that Cody Rhodes was not on the show in any manner cause he was my favorite wrestler at that time. I had tickets to next night's Smackdown tapings in Kansas City as well. I went with a different friend for that one and Cody was in the main event that night in a world title match against Sheamus.

The first show I remember the most besides that 1994 one, was In Your House #2 in 1995. Diesel/Sid, HBK/Jarrett, Jarrett singing "With My Baby Tonight" live for the first time, 1-2-3 Kid getting dropped on his head by the Roadie with a top rope piledriver. Dark matches of Bret vs. Jean Pierre Lafayette and Kama/Taker in a casket match

I have no idea what the main event was, but the first show was an episode of Smackdown when Austin destroyed the DX Express. youtu.be/e_ndo2FCcQs

I could be wrong, but it was a show in 1994 and I think it was Undertaker vs. Bret Hart
