man i sure hope the *** boys are ok that **** looked brutal

Was thinking the same thing. Especially how the dumpster flipped over and the zip ties didn't hold.

Couldn't tell 100%, but it sure looked like somebody's leg flopped out there. Really hope everyone is good.

seems like it would do more damage to wheeler for mox to come out of the crowd

 

[1995]

Really good main event...greatly exceeded my expectations

Yep. Looking back. It doesn't look as bad as I've remembered. But man this was great television.

Always liked that minimalist grimy feel of those old Raws. They need to scale back present day sets, especially with them having those massive trons but not actually having real titantron videos for anyone.

I really miss those tron videos now that you mention it

90% of people just have After Effects presets as their tron now

Was raised on late 80s NWA / Early 90s WCW.
Southern Wrestling, not Sports Entertainment.
I prefer that my wrestling is SERIOUS and has a "Sports Based Presentation."

Sure there were goofy things sprinkled throughout that era but it wasn't the goofball style that Vince put out there.

Favorite Eras of Pro Wrestling

Mid 90s NJPW (Especially the Jr's)
97-98 WCW (Especially the Cruiserweights)
99-00 ECW
NXT (Up until the Gargano Super Indy Style Era started)
NJPW 2014-2019


So contrary to what you assume, most of the things I've been a fan of have been heavy on workrate. It wasn't until falling in love with NXT did I start to really appreciate STORY. (NXT = Best combination of serious story + serious wrestling)

So that is why just putting, "Good matches" in front of me doesn't satisfy me because I have been watching "good matches" for 3 decades.

Now, I want my wrestling to make logical sense from a storyline perspective COMBINED with solid wrestling. (Not a bunch of moves/dives)

Who is your favorite wrestler from each of those eras?

Bret & Natalya kind of tell a different story...

Bret Hart Finally Broke Down Who Did And Didn’t Train In The Infamous Hart Dungeon

Who actually got tortured in that legendary wood-paneled basement?

That Jim Neidhart was the last person actually trained by Stu Hart but that others
trained in The Dungeon afterward...all the way up to Tyson Kidd, Natalya and others, so...
