Similar to the thread I posted in the WWE folder.
 
What do you remember from your first JCP / WCW event? Where was it, when, who wrestled, who won?
 
 
I'll start, though this was admittedly far past WCW's prime.
 
It was WCW Monday Nitro in Phoenix the day after Havoc 99. Lots of matches, lots of backstage segments. The highlights were Chris Benoit vs. Dean Malenko in a last man standing match (the stipulation didn't fit the two men but it was cool just to finally see them live) and Bret Hart beating Goldberg for the US title.

Guess this should be in Mid-Atlantic but here goes:
August, 1980
1) Ron Ritchie p/ Tony Russo
2) S.D. Jones p/ Gene Lewis
3) Paul Jones b/ Dewey Robertson
4) Non-title: Ric Flair p/ Greg Valentine (US champ)

Dorton Arena; July 1987..... Jimmy Valiant & Lazertron beat the Mod Squad, and Ronnie & Jimmy Garvin beat Ivan Koloff & Barbarian in the "double main event". All of the "top stars" were in Maryland that night, I think, but I didn't care. It was my first show and I thought it was so cool that I got to give Ronnie a pat on the back on his way to the dressing room after the match. I was 11.  

 
This is my first live event, October 12, 1978. My Dad took me over to Surry Central High School there in Dobson (our county seat) for this show. I was five years old. Blackjack helped with a drawing they had to give away a shot gun before the show. Boy, how times have changed! He lost to the Baron later in the show.

Mine was Knoxville, Tennessee right after the Clash where the Horsemen kicked Sting out and he ruptured his patella tendon, the Main Event was Ric Flair vs. a still Heel Lex Luger......I also saw Brian Pillman and Z-Man vs. The Freebirds, The R-n-R Express Vs. The Midnight Express, Arn Anderson Vs. Ricky Morton, The Steiners Vs. The Samoan Swat Team, and Norman The Lunatic Vs. Kevin Sullivan.  
 
Goodness all around

November 8, 1993 in Lafollette, TN.  I don't remember the card so much as I remember who was there, as well as the fact that both Paul Orndorff and Cactus Jack no-showed.  And they were the ones most prominently featured on the event posters.
 
Wrestling that night were Bobby Eaton, Ron Simmons, Erik Watts, The Colossal Kongs, The Shockmaster (yep, saw in person.  No glitter-covered Stormtropper helmet, though), Saturday Night jobber The Gambler, and more that aren't coming to mind right now.  The main event was a battle royal for a check (I forget how much it was supposed to be for), won by Shockmaster

i agree with you on the destruction of the gma, it was a great building, many memories there.

I have to make a correction here.......
 
Magnum TA won his first match in the Best Of Seven Series against Nikita Koloff on this night. This woukd go on to set the stage as Magnum tied the series and the 2 finished up the deal in Charlotte with Nikita winning the title.  

Wembley Arena, London, August 1994
 
Hogan vs Flair on top
 
plus I THINK Austin vs Steamboat - I can't find any results on line. I'll have to dig out the photos....  
 

NWA at the Asheville, NC Civic Center.  I seem to recall them coming once a month (6 weeks?) to do a show.  This was probably in 88-89?  We had ringside seats.  I do remember Ric Flair facing The Great Muta in one main event.  Also got to see Brian Pillman, Tom Zenk, JYD, Cactus Jack, Lex Luger.  
 
Flair always had his butt exposed.  There was always an old lady at ringside who would shake a pair of panties at the wrestlers (later I learned that apparently every arena had one of these women).  It stuck with my father who in 2004 brought a pair of panties to an APW show in Spartanburg to wave at my cousin and friend - Adam Jaxon and Ken Magnum.  Their tag name was the UnderGround, but they were called the "UnderGarments".

I have a horrid memory.
 
I think my first live WCW event was a house show.  I just remember Rick Steiner defeating Dallas Page.
 
I went to a Thunder not too long after that.  Sting faced Jeff Jarrett in a 2 out of 3 falls match.  
 
Both in Roanoke, VA.

bobbyryates actually just helped me track down results of my first live show a few weeks ago:
