Seeing Ric Flair in the WWF ... this was great. And the Macho Man is there too. And Vince takes the chair shot.
Reminded you of their battles in Mid-Atlantic, but in reverse.
Piper is so great and Flair may be the best.

I stopped watching wrestling in the mid 90's...just did not have the time nor inclination any more. But perusing this thread, I decided to look at a couple of the videos I had never seen before.
Mick Foley...I read up a bit about his later career and a few Youtube highlights. I remember him back when I watched as more or less cannon fodder for the big names. I never knew he actually became one of the bigger stars out there.
How that guy can still walk and talk is hard to believe. The human body can only take so much abuse.

There's a flix documentary about Mick Foley and tbh it's really really good.
Yes! You guys are awesome. This was the best match ever imo. From memory anyway. I couldnt believe Hogan lost at the time. I was absolutely blown away.
I don't remember any specifics. but I liked the Dudley Boyz "D-VON, GET THE TABLE"
I liked Rey Mysterio
I loved D-Generation X
I loved NwO
I liked Eddie Guerrero
I liked Booker T
I like Chris Jericho
and countless others. Hardy Boyz, Stone Cold, The Rock, Edge/The Brood.
I also think the hottest Diva was Lita. Don't @ me.

Pretty much the year building up to and the event of Wrastlemania 3. Shit, they had SNL bumped off every third weekend for "The Main Event".
No internet spoilers or some millennial pansy shit, you had to call that bullshit 900# to get results or wait in phone queue at the whiskey tango, pre-blockbuster, generic vhs place, with a name like "mega movies" to ask the about to be knocked-up, kool smoking, baby sitter type, with permed hair and a reo speedwagon, tassled, belly shirt, only for her to tell you, you just missed it. And you have to ride your huffy up again in the morning to wait again.

Haha I don’t remember thAt part. I just remember not understanding at all what was going on. Thank you for the video and providing me closure!
Few years ago I can remember reading about Kevin Sullivan who was booking/promoting for WCW at the time of Hell in a Cell. He and a group of his wrestlers were watching the match on pay per view keeping an eye on the competition. When Mankind went off of the cell Sullivan announced, "That's it boys!" When asked what he meant Sullivan later said, "wrestling is about keeping up and outdoing the other guy". "What I meant is , That is it....noone is ever going to outdo that".
Interesting story about Kevin Sullivan. His wife Nancy started cheating on him with another wrestler. They actually played that into a story line for a while and in real life his wife left him and married the other wrestler. Who was the other wrestler? Chris Benoit. Guess that didn't end well for Nancy.

If you want to go down a rabbit hole, check out Kevin Sullivan videos from CWF (Florida wrestling). Nancy is a big part of the presentation. Just check out the entrance to Thriller here ...
Sullivan might have played the abusive heel husband but at least he didn't murder her in real life.

Dark Side of The Ring is pretty interesting. I didn't watch this guy New Jack, he was much after my years of watching as a kid in the 80's, but this dude should have been straight up imprisoned. Dude stabbed a guy in the ring, tasered an unexepting opponent on top of a scaffolding and almost killed a kid that was under 18 in the ring. Can't believe anyone would agree to work with him.
This might have been my favorite moment of the Attitude Era:
