GordyM Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 El Generico's farewell show at PWG got me. It's the moment where an in-character Kevin Steen cold-shouldered his best friend/worst enemy and walked backstage... and then reappeared 30 seconds later to hug him tightly with tears in his eyes.

Fanny Pack Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 That Warrior special showing him at the Hall of Fame, backstage at Mania with his kids, being back on Raw cutting that promo then he died the next day. All that in 4 days. Â So sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Gordon_The_Gopher Posted February 13, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted February 13, 2016 Between Heenan's 'I wish Monsoon was here', Connor the Crusher's brother's 'I love you Connor', Jake Roberts' 'my heart wants it...but my body...I'm sad I can't play anymore' and Ultimate Warrior's 'my family is the proudest thing' the HOF has really battered me over the years... Â Daniel Bryan, HBK and Ric Flair retiring all drew tears. As has almost every 'in memory' video they've done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liam O'Rourke Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 Chalk me up for the Eddie Guerrero "Hurt" and Randy Savage "Scientist" videos. Â Also, when I was a little bugger, the ending to Summerslam 92 with Bret not wanting to shake hands and coming back for the old hug got me too (I was 5, cut me some slack). Was quite surprised to read Bret say in his book that he felt that moment wasn't as effective as it could have been, because it worked on me.

Paid Members garynysmon Posted February 14, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted February 14, 2016 When Tatanka lost his winning streak in late 1993 to Ludvig Borga (I was 9). I don't give enough of a toss about wrestling these days to come close to crying about anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators PowerButchi Posted February 14, 2016 Moderators Share Posted February 14, 2016 Barbarian and Butch Reed beating Windham and Rhodes in 1992. The illegal man pinned Windham. They fucking cheated! And my tear filled tantrum had me sent to bed, minus tea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Pitcos Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 Apart from retirement/Hall of Fame speeches and the tribute montages they do when a wrestler dies, I think the last thing in wrestling that made me cry was when Undertaker beat Hulk Hogan at Survivor Series 1991. I thought Hulkamania was dead and I was inconsolable for a bit. I wonder if I did cry over the Shawn Michaels "Tell Me a Lie" video around Christmas '95 as well, although that was really just a fake version of the death/retirement videos anyway -- they were actually telling me a lie.

Â I did. I thought it was real. If I'd known he was going to come back and steal Bret's belt, they'd have been tears of anger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philjax Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 I think the older i get the more emotional aswell. Â For me, Sasha stealing Izzy's headband during her match with Bayley and the reaction it got, and then me probably realising this is the best thing i will ever see going forward in WWE, made me almost lose it. What a worker..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big7thletter Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 I wonder if anyone on here cried when Shawn Michaels "lost his smile". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Lenin Posted February 17, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted February 17, 2016 This will sound weird but the only time I have cried during something wrestling related was when HH returned at that Mania where Hassan was giving old Eugene a kicking. It was before any of us frequented spoiler sites or forums and it was during a time my other mates only watched Mania. Â Four grown men erupting with joy when Real American hit, hugging each other and genuinely getting weepy eyed. One of those moments that wrestling gives you that no other activity can.
