With the other place going private, we’re here! This is basically an introduction post to introduce ourselves.
My earliest wrestling memory is having a recorded VHS tape of Royal Rumble 1990. I consider being a fan since the mid 90s around 6 years old. I loved Bret Hart, Shawn Michaels, and Diesel. Royal Rumble 1995 is my favorite Rumble. Just one foot. I felt sorry for the British Bulldog, though. I thought Mabel was a good wrestler. He won the King of the Ring! I mainly watched WWF Superstars weekend mornings and Coliseum Home Video. I was “banned” from watching wrestling during the Attitude Era lol. I started watching regularly again in 2002. The Ruthless Aggression era and TNA 04-09 is technically the era I grew up on. Today, I mainly watch AEW, but keep up with what goes on in the WWE. It’s neat seeing all the young stars become experienced veterans.
I started watching in mid 90s as well. I vaguely remember one of my first memories of wrestling as a kid being Kane scaring the hell out of me while making an entrance shortly after his debut.
I’d watch whatever VHS I could find at the local video store, definitely out of order and spanning several different years and eras. Eventually I stumbled upon RAW and the Monday Night Wars.
Good times. Branched out into indies in the early 2000s. Joined the military and soaked up as much different content over the years that I could find, ordering Chikara DVDs while deployed, watching PPVs months later on mailed flash drives. Wrestlings been such a thoroughly engrained part of my life, seems silly that I’ve followed these guys for so long sometimes, but they feel like far off friends in a way.
