On July 23, 2012, WWE Raw made its 1000th episode. Now WWF as I recall was a favorite must see show in my household since I was a kid. I remember every Fridays during lunch time, my dad would get the latest WWE taping which was actually about 1-2 weeks old, since in those days there wasn't any digital electronic transfers or live broadcast. But yeah since Fridays was the weekend, the afternoon lunch was served by watching WWE on TV. Even before RAW and Smackdown were created. It was kinda nostalgic when I saw the opening video presentation for the 1000th episode.
I clearly remember me and my younger bro used to wrestle after watching the show which kinda gave us an adrenaline kick. We truly enjoyed watching it long after we realized it was all fake. But still continue to be avid fans. Sadly wrestling superstars are all that good these days. I guess the best superstars were probably in "my time".
I saw when Rocky Maivia had his first match in WWE and then transformed into The Rock. Bret The HitMan Hart-Stone Cold Steve Austin Rivalry, the formation of DX, Death of Owen Hart, Sultry Sable and Manly Chyna. Lotta good memories enticed with wresting. I guess the presence and the attitude the wrestling superstars carried was kinda awesome for guys like me growin up and see how they would give a good fight tagged with a nice dramatic story line.
I was and will always be a WWE fan...if you smell what the Stan is cookin! :)
