    We had this topic before.
    WWA in the Point, November 2002 and up and coming RAW - May 26th

    And 16 was a lot better as it wasn't booked by that muppet Russo, he destroyed Wrestlemania 15 and almost took the credibility of the event with him.

    I've only seen WWF twice when it came here in '92 and '93 , I know they were only house shows but they were better quality back then as the weekly shows were stills established stars vs. jobbers like Horrowitz and Lombardi , so seeing them wrestling each other seemed like a proper ppv.
    '92 Main event was 'taker and Sid , this was when the phenom was at his peak and I was blown away by his and Sid's size ( Warlord was huge as well , even if he was useless ) .Bulldog got a good pop too , even though he had a Union Jack on his back , suppose most of the crowd were young and not too political.

    '93 was even better - 'Taker and Yokosuna , and Bret and Bam Bam , just brilliant.

    Apart from that , just the aforementioned crap in the SFX and the last couple of WWA events which were poor to be honest , apart from seeing Bret again.

    Doubt if I'll get across the pond to see a real deal PPV , just bought a house ! ( Suppose I might win the lotto )

    WW(f)E in 95 in the point.
    WW(f)E insurrextion 2001, saw hennigs last match (dark match v goldust) got a big suprise when i came home a few days later and read about the plane ride from hell.
    IWW october show
    WWA twice ( the second one was so bad i refuse to go to the next wwa show on principle i dont care if its got bret v angle v benoit main event i wont go)
    NWA Ireland twice
    Win Wrestling

    As far as spectacle and excitment goes it was probably insurrextion.

    As far as the show i had most fun at IWW hands down, great show with a great atmosphere. Only thing i didnt like was the timekeeper (jk hanza)


    Worst show was WIN was cool to see perry and saturn even if their match wasnt the best, enjoyed the UCW lads match everything else was forgetable.

    In fairness , there are a lot of old threads , it would take a lot to go through them all just to make sure we were'nt going over old ground.

    I'd say if an old topic comes up , ignore it !

    I was at The 2 WWA shows The 2nd one was awful I agree!WWA is no longer with us thank god. And a very dodgy english wrestling show at the WIT with people protraying Sting the Undertaker and a guy called Mister U.S.A. with a manchester accent!Looking foward to WWE coming over it will be my first time!

    Aye, i'd have loved to have seen the first one alright, was meant to be a lot better. Sting and Lex Luger were bloody awful the second time around! Luger looked like the total package - of baked spuds, probably what was inside his gut. Joe E Legend's match was probably the better match of that night, even if he was Just Jo... sorry, Just a Game wannabe ;)

    I agree although I thought the Triple Threat with Sabu/Simon Diamond and Perry Saturn was the Best match of the night.

    I've been to a Raw in Boston loved it, my first ever event shown on T.V

    I've been to the Smackdown house shows in Belfast.

    I've been to both WWA events, the 2nd one sucked a lot but I wasnt complainning cause the tickets were free.

    I was at Wrestling Revival in England, was bloody amazing.

    And I was at some indy show in Lisburn.

    In total 7. The Raw show in Dublin will be my 8th.
