Looking for some recomendations

Post by Big Red Machine » Jan 9th, '13, 15:02

I am on an old-school kick right now (yeah, I know I should be catching up on my fantasy booking, but this 1989 WCW stuff is addicting. I think the Dynamic Dudes are my favorite tag team right now), and am feeling slightly experimental. Can anyone recommend some good shows from about 88-91 (not counting WCW in 89, I'll get to all of that eventually).

Also, does anyone know where I can find a compete version of Clash of the Champions 6: Ragin' Cajun? All I can find is Flair vs. Steamboat.

all i can think of right now are WrestleWar 89 and 90. GAB 89 and 90. Starcades 88-90 were ok, 90 has a tag team tourny.

if you're considering WWF, check out SurvivorSeries 87 and the RR where Flair wins the title. those were good.

Great American Bash '90 is a classic show. Capital Combat '90, with Robocop and a little gem of Johnny Ace (his last match in WCW) vs. Mark Callous (who of course went on to be The Undertaker), and the show is very enjoyable. Ummm, other than that maybe the first SuperBrawl or SuperBrawl II (has a great match with Jushin Liger vs. Pillman), Starrcade '90 with the tag tournament is kinda cool but it kinda drags because the matches are all short and there's so many of them. I dunno. WCW in my opinion is the way to go for that time period, because it's just so interesting.
