I don't remember Yahoo being a wrestling site. But I was over 20 in '95 and I can remember the internet before Google. It was a bit of a mess. Fun and amazing and kooky. But tantalizingly frustrating if you were trying to do any focused research.
I can also remember the moment when I discovered Google. It was reading this article back in 2000 (I could have sworn it was 1998):

If you want to travel back in time to the internet as it was when Google appeared, give it a read.
For any gripes I may have about Google's search engine (like the fact I can never seem to easily relocate this article when I want to refer to it), it definitely solved more problems than it created.
