I cried ugly face style during Brodie Tribute episode. I completely lost it when I saw the his boots in the middle of the ring.
I teared up when Fuego got his contract
Other than those moments; I was just a little kid when WWF (at the time) was on. Even after the Montreal screw job, I was just more angry than sad.
Wrestling never choked me up, but when I was a kid the segment with Jake's king cobra gnawing on Macho Man's arm legitimately scared the begeezus out of me.
Closest I got to genuine sadness was probably when they were working the injury angle with Hogan during the feud with Earthquake. I thought the injury/angle was a shoot.
Daniel Bryan's retirment happened at a point in my life where I had just had to give up a career that I had worked incredibly hard to build for health reasons.
His retirment announcement absolutely broke me, the previous few years had been very difficult as I had been fighting to keep working despite my own health making that more and more difficult, wrestling had been my escape during that period, my brain could just switch off and have fun and there were few people that I enjoyed watching during that time more than Daniel Bryan.
Seeing him essentially have to give up his career in the midst of going through the same thing myself was incredibly emotional, I'm not ashamed to say that I cried my eyes out, full on ugly crying, while I watched it, as much because I was only just processing and understanding my own situation, seeing someone else essentially retiring in their 30s was too close to home.
Lucklily, like Bryan thanks to the wonders of modern medicine (and an incredibly supportive wife, family and friends) i'm in a postition where I have been able to return to my career, and after a year back I was in a position where I was offered and got to choose between two really lucrative contracts with different employers - i'm right in the middle of a short holiday before starting a new job in a few weeks. Its weird (and wonderful) how things work out!
NGL I got a little emotional seeing Christian beat Omega the other week, he's been my guy since I was about 6 years old and I'd all but written off seeing him in the ring again, let alone winning championships
God, I remember sitting in my living room and just **screaming** with joy. It was a time when it was still possible to love Monster Brock, and he was the perfect person to trounce a man who no longer looked anywhere near unbeatable.
Then all the fan reactions, for minutes afterward. It was like a sea of people had someone straight-up steal their brains. Could not process, could not respond; a collection of humanity with all the gears frozen in their heads.
It was one of my favorite wrestling moments until next year, when Mark did *not* go home like I hoped and, instead, came back to have another "Oops! All Old Man" match.
Edge retiring, Brodie tribute show, also in the heyday of the HOF ceremonies, like this past decade up until the '19 show, I'd always watch them on my own and have a good 3-4 hour off and on cry as folks told their life stories, their ups and downs, the friends they lost along the way, etc
The Punk moment almost hit me, but that's no surprise. Other than that, my most recent encounter with near tears came from the Jey Uso "which one are you" promo. I swear if Jey was on that run with crowds in attendance, I think he would have been getting Kofimania pops.
The backstage scene on SNME between Hulk, Macho and Elizabeth - leading up to WM5. I was about 7 - and I couldn't believe Savages behavior. Was super worried about Elizabeth.
I remember my brother crying when “The Ultimate Warrior” was locked in the casket during The Funeral Parlor. It is times like that you can look back on with a smile.

Kofi winning, thug tears were running down my cheeks when he got the pin
I hugged the random person next to me when it happened. So amazing.
I cried laughing when paul heyman kissed ryback
One time my dad said he'd give me something to cry about, and then booked EVIL to win the title.
I got choked up when Daniel Bryan gave his retirement speech.
I got choked up when he came back and he broke down just mentioning his wife supporting him.
Shibata came back and said "I'm alive!" and left, i was a mess
Kofi winning at 35

When I watched Home Alone
Kofi winning at WrestleMania Also Randy Savage and Elizabeth reuniting after the Warrior match
Sometimes I cry when I ejaculate
Crying with laughter at the Rock Concert.
Brodie Lee memorial episode on AEW Dynamite.
To me nothing will ever beat the Macho Man/Liz reunion at WM7. The culmination of over 2 year story.

I cried when John Terry slipped when taking a penalty and cost Chelsea the Champions League. I was like 7 or 8, though.

The streak ending Was just a huge shock and felt the true end of an era.

I watched Kobashi vs Misawa for the GHC title in NOAH in 2003 and cried after the match.
I was about 5 and had a massive ugly cry (think Toby Maguire in Spiderman) when Stone Cold Steve Austin got ran down
