I get so excited when they talk WWF late 80’s, early 90’s

[@weworldwide1348]

cuz were a naive kid back then who loved wrestling. Am I right or what?!?!

Hell yeah

[@machoman3828]

Fellas I rented SummerSlam 89 on VHS from my local CT video store(Video Galaxy) no less than 30x as a kid, no joke. My Mom would get mad at me for how often I rented the same WWF PPV VHS tapes and they wouldn’t sell them to her probably because we were their best customers and paying their monthly electric bill.

[@machoman3828]

Amanda Ward haha that’s awesome, what was your top 3 WWF videos to rent from opening night video?

Can't believe they think the IC Title match is too long. The length and those great near falls add to the drama. Normally a shorter Warrior match is better. But for such a big PPV match and the story they told it made sense. What a job Rude did that night.

This was the first WWF event I ever saw. A lad at my school had it on VHS and I borrowed it off him. I'd never heard of any them apart from Hogan but I was amazed with the Warrior!! I thought he really was unstoppable. Great look, too. Still my favourite Summerslam.

Yeah, too bad those two didn't have a better match at WrestleMania XV. That was a big misfire between two legendary WWF big men. That was Boss Man's only WrestleMania loss.

[@TheAngelmuse]

I was in Middle school in Indiana when this came out. The PPV was about 15 dollars, and it was a must-see. It was all the talk at our school. We were just kids and Loved the WWF back in the day. It was nothing like it is now or what it has become.

[@Dizzy1980]

1:17:00 Disagree 100%. The Warrior/Rude match was AWESOME here, one of Warrior's absolute best, right up there with his WrestleMania matches with Savage and Hogan.

[@endofthelinejoel]

Hellwig (the person) gets a lot of criticism, which spills over into his Ultimate Warrior gimmick. Ultimate Warrior was incredibly over from 87 to 91. His character was protected to perfection by Vince McMahon. Warrior was never meant to be a Dynamite Kid or Curt Hennig technical master. Warrior was like a "Masters Of The Universe" cartoon musclebound monster brought to life. Most of his matches were short BUT exciting, which made perfect sense. It made the character seem like a wild force of nature. Even when he had to do a longer match (i.e. versus Randy Savage or Rick Rude), he ROSE to the occasion especially on Pay-Per-Views. Now, certainly, it was those ring generals who led the matches... but you still need the follower (Hellwig) to play along with the structure of the longer-style match. Warrior was exciting, and was an excellent fit back in the 80s to capture the minds of kids who watched Saturday morning cartoons in addition to pro wrestling shows.

[@Dizzy1980]

Extremely well said. The majority of Warrior criticism comes from so called "smart marks" who weren't even alive during Warrior's heyday. From 1987-1991, there was NOBODY bitching about Warrior's ring style or what he may be like outside the ring. Warrior was majorly over because fans WANTED to see him race to the ring, shake those ropes, and then knock the hell out of somebody in record time. When it came time to put on a longer match, he did, and typically did it with flying colors.

[@hooksncrosses3419]

Warrior was my favourite back in 1992. Back then, as a 9 year old, I wasn't interested in work rate. Only characters. Now I'm older I appreciate work rate and psychology but back then I was only interested in larger than life characters. Everyone is an expert these days and they dont just kick back, relax and enjoy wrestling any more.

[@TheeCoachg]

endofthelinejoel Very well said. I switched from being a Hulkamaniac to being a Warrior pretty quick as a kid. I am glad I got to experience wrestling in its Golden time when you either absolutely loved it or just didnt watch it,these days everybody is a damn booker. Warrior was OOOOOVER like ROVER to me as a kid,though now id put Savage or Rick Rude much higher on my list,to make it like Warrior was just abysmal and unbearable to watch is a lie and WWE talking point.

[@machoman3828]

Coachg everyone is 100% a booker now. You’re so right.

[@Dizzy1980]

Brain Busters vs Hart Foundation was an excellent match, despite the ludicrous stipulation that the title wasn't on the line. Making this a WWF tag team title match would've punched up the drama sooo much.

[@jrdoo7x]

if i remember the match was set and then arn/tully won the tag team titles a couple of weeks before summerslam.

[@Dizzy1980]

That was the kayfabe explanation given. It could EASILY have been announced as a title match. Brain Busters won the titles on July 18, 1989 (aired 10 days later), a full 6 weeks before Summerslam, so the explanation doesn't wash. All it did was kill an otherwise phenomenal match.

[@Dizzy1980]

2:15:00 Bruce admits he doesn't know why it wasn't a title match.

[@del7538]

Bret said in his book that he and jim were none too happy about losing that match with no belts on the line . Thought it made them look weak.

[@timthegem]

I can't believe Bruce was only in his mid-20s during this time. About the same age Wilford Brimley was when he did Cocoon.

1:15:00 I think the issue now is that the fans already decide who they want to be the next champ and whomever wwe have planned to set up even if it's the last guy the fans 'wanted' to be the champ is irrelevant. Look at Cena and Roman. Fans cheered the hell outta them when they lost their respective rumble both to Batista oddly... then by the time WWE pulled the trigger the fans had moved on to an indie guy or another underrated star instead

[@OptimumTaurus]

For what it is worth, the reason they put the NWA title on Ronnie Garvin was because Ric Flair wanted to win the NWA title at Starrcade. Problem was, Flair was already the champion. No top baby faces wanted to be a lame duck champion, but Ronnie figured he wouldn't get to hold the title any other way so he agreed to do the honors. This is also why Garvin was "on sabbatical" for most of his reign-- no top heels would put him over as champion because everyone knew no matter what, Flair was winning the belt back anyway. No use helping build a champion whose days were numbered before he even won it.

[@mikeh77]

[@Holden308]

Hercules (Herkaleez as Ronnie Garvin put it) had what Jake The Snake called The Baby Blues. If you were one of the WWF's bigger stars and Vince started having you wear baby blue colored tights, you were still a star, but against other stars you were basically a high class jobber. And by this time in his face run and until he would be turned back heel and put into Power and Glory with Paul Roma (who I think could have been a 90s version of the Hart Foundation) ... Hercules wrestled in baby blue colored tights and white boots. On TV he would get his own squash matches to make him still look like one of the bigger stars, but at PPV's he'd become a jobber to get other guys over, or in the case of SummerSlam 1989, a pawn the growing Garvin v Valentine feud.
