I'll tell ya, this may not come to mind for alot of people, but Me and my brother literally jumped out of our sets and screamed when Lex Luger made Hogan submit in the torture rack to win the world title. Hogan won it back like 4 days later at the PPV but for some reason that title win was amazing. I have to give Sting the nod for doing the same thing at Starcade '97.

Of course seeing Savage/Steamboat match when I was young set the pattern for me of what a wrestling match should be, it changed my whole perception of the sport.

Hogan bodyslamming Andre-probably the single biggest moment in the history of wrestling.
Get yourself an old wrestling tape. Watch Flair in his prime, Terry Funk, The Road Warriors, Dusty Rhodes, Ricky Steamboat, Barry Windham, The Andersons, Pat Patterson, The Briscoes, and I dare you,... I dare you to try to tell me that WWE is even a remotely good product. Wrestling happened before 1998 and just because you didn't see it does not mean it did not exist. Broaden your horizons people!!!
