Are we supposed to answer how we felt in the 80's or how we feel today through the rose colored glasses of nostalgia?

Your call. I was born in 86 so i lived it through tape/DVD/internet/YouTube

 

[D.R.H.]

I'll answer how I felt back then...

The Steiner Brothers are 1 & 2...seeing them for the first time right after The NWA became WCW was when I fell in love with wrestling. I knew wrestling was fake before I ever saw a match...but those guys made me believe!

Hogan would have been a distant 3rd.

When I was a kid it was Savage, Road Warriors, Ultimate Warrior

As an adult re-watching shit from back then and watching shit I never saw at the time it's Savage, Bruiser Brody, Tiger Mask II (Misawa)
