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
Hulk Hogan vs. Ultimate Warrior at Mania 6. This was like the ultimate confrontation when I was a kid.
Now I think they’re both trash, both in the ring and as humans. But that’s the way things go sometimes.
Sadly :(
