Then: 1. AWA 2. Windy City Classics (I think it was called? Pretty sure it was on Ch. 44. Dick the Bruiser, Crusher, etc Guys were ALWAYS bleeding) 3. WCCW 4. This list is more of my "yute" list. There weren't really any other Feds that I got...... 5. .....maybe WWF but I hated WWF. Now: 1. ROH 2. NXT 3. NJPW 4. WWE (I realize NXT is part of WWE so fuck off)   5. TNA (I really need to seek out Lucha/PWG since I don't get either of them here) Forever: 1. WCCW (Not even close. World class by a mile. The reason it was only 3rd on my yute list is because I was exposed to AWA for a much longer time frame.) 2. AWA (My first love) 3. WCW (I wasn't exposed to a ton of WCW but this ranking is mostly about the NWO. I found that whole thing fascinating, it got me back into wrestling, and I loved every minute of it up until they finally reached 27 members. I was mostly ok with the first 26.) 4. WWE (This is based on history, moments, and just the sheer magnitude of WWE programming. For the most part, I really don't like the actual company) 5. ROH (And it's rapidly moving up the list. I foresee it landing as my #2 all-timer if they don't screw it up) |

Then (I only watched 2 feds on TV growing up, so I'll tweak this to being the programs I watched strictly for this category):
1. WWF Monday Night Raw (I will never forget being a kid & seeing Razor Ramon lose to the Kid. That really made it "wow, anything can happen on this show" for me)
2. WCW Monday Night Nitro (until 2000 when WCW shit the bed, I literally never missed an episode)
3. WWF Prime Time Wrestling (I sadly missed the Brain/Gorilla years, but I loved the roundtable & setup. Still do when I see clips of it.)
4. WCW Saturday Night (I always had to make sure I was home from whatever we were doing at 6:05 & I could count on 1 hand the amount of times I missed it)
5. WWF Superstars (the first wrestling show I ever watched on TV)
Now:
1. NXT (the best alternative to WWE......is a WWE product. Sounds f'd up, but it's my favorite)
2. PWG (they only have 8 or so shows a year, yes, but those 8 shows blow the tits off the competition in every possible way)
3. ROH (after years of watching online & DVD (and my VHS' as well), I'm still thrilled I finally get to see it on my TV)
4. WWE (repetitive matches, boring storylines 9 months out of the year, yet, I still watch, because every so often there's incredible moments still)
5. Lucha Underground (despite not being in English for me, I find it far more entertaining than TNA)
Forever:
1. WWF (Note: not WWE, I mean WWF, I became a wrestling fan in 1990, haven't stopped, no matter how much I bitch)
2. WCW (from the ages of 11-14 the Monday Night Wars ran my life)
3. ROH (first time I was exposed to "indy" wrestling was when I bought their first show on DVD, bought VHS tapes at every indy show I went to after that)
4. ECW (I first found out about them in 1995 from reading PWI, when I finally got it on VHS for the first time, I was hooked)
5. NLW: No Limits Wrestling (it was affiliated with IWA:MS & Ian Rotten and I got to see some violent shit, but, I also got to see Samoa Joe, AJ Styles, Jimmy Jacobs, Abyss, Matt Sydal, Steve Corino, Low-Ki, Chris Hero, Jerry Lynn, the late Chris Candido (2 months before he passed) for the first time. Also I got to see the first matches of an up & comer named Tyler Black, he went on to do alright for himself I think) Some of the greatest shows I've ever seen live were at the Armory I dragged my dad to in 2005)

Man I forgot all about ECW but I wasn't really ever exposed to it all that much. I guess it still wouldn't then make my list just from lack of exposure. I think I missed bad by not seeking that out more at some point.

The DVD that WWE put out & matches that used to be on 24/7 was really the only exposure I had of it until YouTube.
PWI was so key in ECW for me. I remember I bought a VHS that had the RVD/Jerry Lynn match & blew my mind. Had Raven/Sandman barbed wire. Had the match where Francine's boob popped out. As a teenager that was awesome!

How do you have WCCW ranked 3 on the THEN list but number 1 on the FOREVER list?

How do you have WCCW ranked 3 on the THEN list but number 1 on the FOREVER list? Because my THEN list was more a list of my youth. Like into my early teens or so. WCCW seeped into a list that's really not represented in the above. It would kind of be on an AFTER THEN list. |

So it's like a "Favorite as a kid", "Favorite as a teen/adult", and ""Favorite All Time" thing?
