WrestleMania XIX Live Discussion - April 9, 2020

Also bc it's better than Starrcade 86

 

[Chris]

Not GAB 89 tho But I'll admit I probably missed the boat on that one so it can just be added to a poll regularly again and see if it wins

 

[Kross Rhodes]

What tie?

 

[Chris]

Smark picking PG sports entertainment over brutal bloody 80s rasslin'

 

[Chris]

If this was Starrcade 88, then you'd have sold me better tbh Grim

 

[Kross Rhodes]

I'd probably take 88 or 89 over 2013, but honestly it's a good 2013 show and 86 is a bit too early for me.

 

[Chris]

1989 WCW is the best year in 'rasslin history with Flair/Steamboat and then going into Flair/Funk right after

1989 WCW is the best year in 'rasslin history with Flair/Steamboat and then going into Flair/Funk right after

I'll take it since you said WCW and best in the same sentence.

And "in history." Should have been greatest, though.

 

[Chris]

We'll just ignore how much I think it goes downhill afterwards outside of a few good parts right?

 

[Chris]

Just pretend I didn't say that

 

[Kross Rhodes]

I'm already pretending.

 

[Chris]

Tbh I don't think I thought the WWF was ever better than WCW or whatever the biggest southern promotion was called at the time until like 92-93, and that's when I felt WCW started doing a lot of dumb shit which is hilarious bc that's when they became more national as well

 

[Kross Rhodes]

Even '92-93 WWF was doing some corny shit. I do think 1994-1995 WWF is better.

 

[Chris]

But then I thought the WWF was better every year after that for the most part, some were bad and good years for both companies tho so I'd probably rank them closer between say 93-97 bc 93-95 was not particularly good for either and I thought 96-97 were, well at least the second half of 96 for WCW

 

[Chris]

Yeah when I say I prefer 92-93 WWF over WCW it's begrudgingly bc they both sucked
