I still get goosebumps for Hogan entrances

Another great one is him saving Eugene at WM 21.

I've got the 10:50 mark as an underrated crowd pop: http://dai.ly/xceaah?start=600

Another one that's not filed under "big pop": The aftermath of Savage vs. Warrior @ WM VII

Another part of this that's so great is just how perfect JR & Lawler were together. JR, the face, clearly disgusted with Vince & co's antics to make sure HHH wins, and then he just loses his mind when Austin's music hits and starts raising hell. Lawler, the heel, delivering perfect lines like "how can he referee he's fired!?" which both serve its purpose but also is said in such a way that it enhances the excitement of the match. They play off each other great, both knew their roles, and rarely stepped on each others toes.

Just another example of how wrestling back then was night and ****ing day compared to what we get today.

Lawler was an absolutely GOAT cowardly heel announcer

Too bad he turned into this

Oh wait, we're not doing a draft? Still. I say Mark Henry in the pink salmon jacket really got people going.

Ahhh yeah, Salmon suit Henry is my favorite

The two that I were there live for (both at MSG) were HHH's return from quad injury (video posted on first page) and Cactus Jack's WWE debut (also against HHH coincidentally).

Daniel Bryan sure have gotten the crowd on the palm on his hands in that period and his match with Cena was just the beginning.

If I'm not mistaken, Simmons winning the title from Vader got a Huge pop, especially for a WCW crowd

I didn't watch it but I almost searched for it because I thought so. I imagine it got a huge pop seeing as how it was a house show, Simmons wasn't Vader's scheduled opponent, and it happened in Baltimore.

This has me thinking - I can't recall a single televised match where the ref throwing out the heel manager/valet/entourage didn't elicit a big pop

Those spots do tend to work, but that's one rare area where wrestling bookers tend to show restraint even now. Doesn't feel like the heave-ho really happens in minor matches; it's usually in a big title match or a blow-off match or something, so obviously that helps. It seems more like a reflection of how into the match itself the crowd is. If they didn't care about the match then I wouldn't expect an ejection to register very strongly.

Huh, okay. So much for my attempt to compliment an area of restraint today.

I know there are a lot of dead links itt, but did Linda Mcmahon getting one of the loudest pops of all time by simply standing up not get a mention here?

The Linda McMahon one is definitely something.

Relative to how completely dead the crowd acts throughout both of the Trump Plaza WrestleManias, Savage pinning DiBiase was a downright galactic pop. Four hours into their collective nap, the crowd suddenly wakes up and very successfully cosplays as a real WM crowd.
