Attitude era was amazing. Loved Brutus Beefcake days also, but then I'm an old fart.

I remember the first time I saw "american wrestling"... It was amazing... Made british wrestling on ITV look utter gash.

nothing highlights the superiority of Americans packaging and salesmanship than wrestling.

One of the best clips ever.

Still wetting myself now watching it, and haven't seen it since 1999.

Amazing.

Fantastic entertainment!
In fairness, they could never beat that era. The bar was so high they can only aspire these days!

I'm pretty sure in the 80's, the WWF said Brutus died in a speedboat accident, I was distraught.

A few weeks or months later, I was shocked watching WCW to see him wrestling.
 

I loved the Bushwackers. Althought they won bog all, and were always out of the Royal Rumble before 10 seconds.
 
The ultimate Warrior had a match in Spain not too long ago. He's that old it took him about 60 seconds to run to the ring.

Ace.

Surely Ric Flair is about 85 now?

I bet Hulk Hogan is still milking his once-superstar status somewhere.
 
I used to watch it around 1990-92, my favourite events from that era were Wrestlemania 7 were Hogan Beat Sgt Slaughter and the Royal Rumble were Ric Flair won the title. Am I imagining things or were the pay per view events back then only shown on sky movies?
 

Favourite Wrestlers of all time:

Triple H
UnderTaker
Chris Benoit
The Dudleys
Ultimate Warrior
HBK
Owen Hart
Hacksaw Jim Duggan

The only wrestling I really watch now is via Botchamania clips on YouTube. Highly recommended if you haven't seen them yet.
