TPWW's VH-1 "I Love The Wrestling 1980's"

[Kenny]

Works the same way as the 90's thread. Thanks for the idea COE.

Shit... what happened in the 1980's?

I'm going to have to go with Ultimate Warrior over Hulk Hogan at Wrestlemania 6. I loved the Warrior and I didn't want to be a Hogan mark cause it was the "in thing". I was tired of all the kids at school pretending to be him!

It was just a good back and forth match for it's time. Not to mention it was the two main guys.

God. He ruled.

I loved Wrestlemania 3. It has got one of the greatest PPVs of all time and it had so many memorable moments in it, such as the IC title match and Hogan bodyslamming Andre.

I liked the Royal Rumble where Jake the Snake brought out Damien to make Andre leave the ring.

Correct me if im wrong, but didnt Wrestlemania 6 take place in 1990?

Anyways,

I loved everything about the 80's everything was so entertaining and colourful!! I still to this day enjoy the odd 80's/early 90's event now and again!

Those were the good old days!!

Told you this topic would be better.

Okay I'll just list some random stuff I enjoyed in the WWF in the 1980's

*Bret Hart turning face at WM4 and smashing Bad News's trophy

*Andre turning heel at The Pit and challenging Hogan for the title.

*Jake DDTing Steambot's head into the concreate. Awesome Angle

*Savage vs Steamboat at WM 3

*The FLOWER Shop vs Piper's Pit

*Orndorf turning on his best friend, Hogan, in a tag match

*Survivor Series and Royal Rumble style matches being introduced

*Managers in the WWF (Heenan, Slick, HART, Fuji, Albano, etc...)

*The Awesome Tag division (Harts, Rockers, Brainbusters, Orient Express, Bulldogs, Demolition, Killer Bees, Dream Team, Strike Force)

*Hogan being an ass and throwing Macho out in Royal Rumble 88 and then 4yrs later complaining about Justice throwing him out..LOL

*Savage winning the title at WM 4 (Hogan still managed to get the posedown show in though)

*Ventura being a hillarious heel commentator. His anti-Hogan comments were GOLDEN

*Piper hitting Snuka with the coconut
