    The highlights they showed implied it would be Arn Anderson, Ric Flair, Barry Windham, and Tully Blanchard, along with manager J.J. Dillon.

    Don't know how many people watched WCW back in the day, but Ernest Miller as commisioner was one of the lone highlights towards the end of the company.

    "Ah have spokeeehhhhhnnnn." We marked out every time

    That reminds me: What was your biggest mark-out moment ever?

    Because mine was -definitely- the debut of Brock Lesnar.

    When Hulk turned down Million Dollar Man's offer to buy the WWF Championship for a million dollars. That was awesome, brother!

    Probably the biggest mark out moment for me was the first wrestling event I ever watched, because at the time I could not comprehend it wasn't real. It was a flag match on RAW of Steve Austin, Dude Love (Mick Foley), and Taker as Team USA vs. Team Canada of Bret & Owen Hart, and British Bulldog. Given that I was 11 or 12 and didn't know jack squat about wrestling, needless to say I was quite pissed that Team USA lost. I laugh at it now, but I still remember that match and there was just a genuine electricity that whole night given the storyline and it being in Canada.

    I don't know of all time, probably when the Mounty lost to Bossman at Summerslam 91 and had to spend a night in jail.

    Recently, when the Rock made his comeback. I sort of jumped up and down like an 11 year old seeing Hanson in 1997. Not sure why especially since we all knew it was coming...but when that music hit I marked out like crazy.

    In terms of Ernest the Cat Miller, I always thought that him and Norman Smiley should have had a tag team of ridiculousness.

    My biggest mark-out moment as an adult was definitely the return of Mr. Perfect at the Royal Rumble. Hennig was pretty much always my favorite wrestler, particularly as that character.

    As a kid - not sure - have to chew on that one for a while!

    And definitely agree with MikeAD - Miller and Smiley the Hardcore Wiggler would have been a fantastic tag team.

    Actually, I will add that while the Smiley character got stupid after a while, that storyline was pretty good too. He resisted the hardcore bouts claiming to be a scientific wrestler, then won the championship in a fluke, then started to embrace the hardcore style.

    There were many involving Hogan when I was younger. But one that at one time I thought would never occur, was this...

    Most recently, Punk winning the title at Money in the Bank, in Chicago. I thought for sure Cena would retain and was the most genuinely happy I've been with a wrestling result in quite awhile.

    As a younger fellow, the first PPV I ever got live was the 98 Royal Rumble. I had started to love Stone Cold at this point, so when he won the Rumble, I went crazy. Also, I don't believe I saw it live, but whenever Undertaker threw Mankind off the top of the cell, I went nuts.

    What's funnier is they can do it and half the crowd and "WWE Universe" has no clue it's a rip off or rehash of a previous idea. But hey, it worked for Kurt Angle and "Medal."

    Yeah earlier in this thread we were talking about Henry and Show breaking the ring. It was cool but this JUST happened with Brock and Show and they continually said this had never happened before.

    They recycle so much over and over. Visera/Mable recently had a storyline that was about the same as Mark Henry's Sexual Chocolate WHILE he was feuding with Mark Henry...
