I can remember when I first started watching WWE although it was known as WWF at the time. I was 6 years old and it was in 1997. Bret Hart was the champion and Shawn Michaels was his rival. We didn’t have Sky Sports channel in my house, however. My grandparents did so they’d tape it for me to watch when I went there. Then me, my school friends and friends around my neighbourhood basically built up a library of taped episodes of Raw, Smackdown and Pay-per-views. We’d lend each other the VHS cassettes, go round to each other’s houses and watch WWF. This was how we kept up to date with the events.

Man the Montreal screw job broke my heart. That was a low point for me as a wrestling fan. I was already a Shawn Michaels hater for destroying the rockers. I understand now why it happened, but at the time I was devastated.
There was a point in my life where I was obsessed with the WWF and actually rented VHS tapes all the way to Wrestemania I.
