I was a wwf person as a kid but I remember getting into wcw in 1994/1995 always pulling for hulk hogan, macho man, and sting vs (4horseman) Rick flair, Arnold Anderson, lex Luger, and the giant. I was so pumped when razor Ramon and Kevin Nash showed up being big fans of them from wwf only to be blindsided when hulk hogan turned on macho man that night with the NWO. When Goldberg was in his prime I wcw got boring to me and I stopped watching them. WWF in the 90s was the goat.

Major Gunns does porn, so that's a plus.

Rick is a successful realtor in Atlanta


In 2003 I saw him live wrestling for a small promotion and if he got paid more than $100 I'd say the show lost money.
I did some research afterward and I believe back then he was on the school board in some county in Georgia.

Loved watching the cruiserweights: Jushin Thunder Liger, Juventud Guerrera, Psychosis, La Parka, Shane Helms, Eddie Guererro, Chavo, Guererro, Kidman, Dean Malenko, Rey Mysterio, Chris Jericho, and my all time favorite The Ragin' Cajun Lash Leroux.

1996-2000 was probably the best pro-wrestling has ever been.

From an actual in ring performance standpoint there are a lot of reeeeally really good guys(and girls) performing right now

Spot monkeys are at an all time high.

Naich didn't need to jump from a 30ft cage to make a tGOAT match.

bash at the beach 96, the infamous Hogan heel turn PPV, had so many crap matches

but rey mysterio versus psychosis to start it off was an amazing match(though the selling was not great) Some really really good spots.

If you have WWE Network, def worth it to check out that match

As lame as the character was, The Artist Formally Known as Prince Iaukea had the greatest intro.

I loved that purple rain ripoff.

GOAT Lucha Libre Match in WCW, Rey Mysterio, Jr. vs. Eddie Guerrero Halloween Havoc 1997. No one could pull this off as flawlessly as those two in '97.
