In the mid to late 80s these guys and their contemporaries dominated the box for me and most of my mates
A mate and I have been talking about this a lot recently. We were pretty big wrestling fans at uni (the Raw is War era, the end of WCW). My kids are starting to get in to it now, and it's shit.
We were blessed in a way to have these guys as our introduction. Roided up weight lifters who were all mental made for some fucking great TV. Mean Gene playing it straight and letting these absolute lunatics sound off.
Raw is War was great, more professional, bit darker. But the WWF was larger than life, and just fucking amazing.
....and just about all dead

@canefan when I was about 9 or 10 they would show the WWF about 10:30 or 11pm on a Thursday night. My older sister would wake my brother and I up to sneak into the lounge and watch it while the olds were asleep. Great times.
My kids will sadly never experience stuff like that given they everything on a platter because of the interweb.

All the good shit was on late at night. Fortunately we had a VHS and I was well versed in using it

I wasn't allowed to stay up and watch it and all the kids at school did and they'd talk about it constantly. When I finally was able to watch I was confused that there wasn't two teams because all the kids at school talked about the good guys and the bad guys like they were on two opposing teams.
I don't know why the fuck I never thought to tape it.

I feel your pain brutha, the naughty kids at school ( including one who became at Dad at 15 ) stayed up and watched it and talked about it however I'd argue that watching the taped versions as I did at 3.10pm on Friday ( after sprinting as opposed to walking home from school ) made it even better as it would finish then I'd be off to pick up f n cs and talk rasslin with the old man who was a ringside doctor for one of the independent circuits back in the 70s and met a few, only one who I remembered being Rick Martell.

Got sucked into an old McGyver episode the other day, guess star was a young Teri Hatcher. She was always easy on the eye.

@Virgil Under the mountain was scary AF - WIlberforces
Did oyu ever watch the re-make? I didnt, not sure if I want to.
Late to this party ...
I'm still pissed off Ricky died ...
Children of Fire Mountain wss quite good too
The Mad Dig Gang meet Rotten Fred and Rats Guts. But I think that was a one off tele movie.

@Nepia it's on IMDB so it must be real
@booboo I remember the name Children of Fire Mountain but just looked at it on IMDB too and shows as 1979 (I was 5) and doesnt look familiar to me.
Phew, I'm not crazy!
I wonder if they were part of a series?
Hmm, I thought Greer Robson was in Dog Star but IMDB says no.
