inspired by the other discussion post today, it got me thinking about what match evokes the best childhood memory? it doesn’t have to be a good match or anything - just the one that you remember most?

for me, it’s eddie gilbert vs the dark patriot from global in 1992. i didn’t really watch wwf growing up but i was really big into wcw and i remember discovering global on espn afterschool and out of every wrestling match i watched nothing is more memorable than global.

someone uploaded it to youtube, so you can watch it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eRNuKdaRbd8

    For me it would probably be a match I never actually saw and was probably done many times in various house shows around the county.

    I remember being 5 years old and for weeks WWF Superstars on KMSP played promos promoting am upcoming “world shattering” match Between Hulk Hogan & The Big Boss Man at the Target Center. I begged my dad to take me repeatedly, but we could hardly afford to keep the fridge full in those days let aline stick a 5 year old me in a car for 2 hours to get to Minneapolis for who knows how many hour show and over priced crap that a 5 year old would need to commerate going to a WWF House show.
