80s/early 90s NWA/WCW - Flair, Harley Race, Terry Funk, Steamboat, Dusty, Road Warriors, Great Muta, Midnight Express, Rock n Roll Express, later Sting, Vader, Luger, Cactus Jack. Great time to be a wrestling fan
The 80s when it was The Horsemen vs The Road Warriors, Koloff and Rhodes. You gotta be good I. The ring and great behind the mic and Flair was the GOAT. Road Warrior Hawk was solid as well.

It is commonly agreed upon within the internet wrestling community that 1997 is the greatest year of wrestling. WCW was hot with the nWo at its peak, and even though WWF was losing in the ratings every week, their product was compelling as it began crossing the line between the cartoon era and the At ude Era. Once they were actually fully into the At ude Era it was a bit too TrashTV for me.
I remember when they sold LOD out. Terribly ugly.
That's because of Vince Russo and his 'Jerry Springer style' approach to writing. He could give a damn who gets over, and would basically throw at the wall to see what sticks. He killed WCW, and attempted to kill TNA as well. He's a blight upon wrestling. Check out the Jim Cornette shoots on him (youtube); they are outstanding.
Late '90s WCW. Even though it kinda flamed out at the end, the whole NWO thing was the best angle ever in pro wrestling.
Early stage nWo you mean.. That got REALLY stupid after a couple years.. Wolfpac, LWO, the rebooted nWo with Jeff Jarrett.. That crap had like 30 members including nWo Japan![]()

When they renamed them the Legion of Doom, or when they took Hawk's real life alcoholism issues and turned it into a murder/suicide angle off the antron?![]()
When they'd had their run and management had them lose in broad daylight. Those moments were always very sad. Did the same thing to the Bushwhackers and many other wrestling acts. Makes you sick to your stomach because you remember when they were on top and showcased and everything was ahead of them. Sure, I knew the points on their shoulder pads were rubber, but, they never let the camera see & show that until they crapped out. Eh, what can you do, just another ugly side of life. Gotta take it.
