Eddv 07/15/20 8:40:57 PM #389 | It was actually a somewhat common old territorial story - two guys from a rival territory come in and claim theyre better than the locals. That was pretty standard. The Hogan thing was a neat wrinkle, though I think its a pretty obvious evolution on the concept. --- Board 8's Voice of Reason https://imgur.com/AWY4xHy |

Eddv 07/15/20 8:23:15 PM #387 | CaptainOfCrush posted... Were I forced to rewatch, I'd probably enjoy 1996 WCW a lot more than 1998 WWF. So much of that era's WWF programming would be cringey, bizarre, or plain offensive today. Conversely, the nWo in 1996 is probably my favorite angle ever, and perhaps the most timeless. I'll still occasionally look up those first Scott Hall promos where he walked in through the audience, or the segment where Hall and Nash left a portion of WCW's roster damn near dead in the parking lot. The nWo angle wasn't exactly novel at the beginning- but it was well executed! The part that was novel (how enormous the stable got) wasnt necessarily a positive. --- Board 8's Voice of Reason https://imgur.com/AWY4xHy |

Eddv 07/15/20 7:55:16 PM #384 | I just think people need to admit wrestling was sort of a fad in the late 90s I don't think there's anything from that era that works as a playbook for success beyond Austin himself --- Board 8's Voice of Reason https://imgur.com/AWY4xHy |

Eddv 07/15/20 7:45:02 PM #381 | I don't think what they had with Austin was sustainable in any way. But who knows. If he doesn't turn heel at Mania 18 maybe they could have eased into the transition easier. The real issue is that they lost he and rock at basically the same time and had to turn to Triple H --- Board 8's Voice of Reason https://imgur.com/AWY4xHy |

Eddv 07/15/20 3:14:33 PM #375 | Sure, I think because Vince has lasted so long and because both have been so successful apart from one another that it does sort of get lost what a perfect marriage Vince and Hogan were. --- Board 8's Voice of Reason https://imgur.com/AWY4xHy |

Eddv 07/15/20 2:48:15 PM #371 | And the education line is unfortunately necessary. WWE have turned themselves into stewards of wrestling history and they have twisted that narrative to make Capitol/WWWF more important than what they were - a successful, but not THE most successful territory. In general their narrative is one that makes WWF the heroes and the center of the universe and leaves just so much out. There were other promotions, many of them more popular and featuring better wrestling. Hogan captured the 80s Zeitgeist well and was able to legitimately be turned into a national icon but let's also address the monkey in the room here - what drove WWF to be a national promotion was savvy media strategy and a desire to go National not anything that was happening in the ring, though Hogan certainly helped things along. He was bringing easily accessed higher production quality TV wrestling to an audience that already knew and loved wrestling. --- Board 8's Voice of Reason https://imgur.com/AWY4xHy |

Eddv 07/15/20 2:39:37 PM #370 | Again I love Hogan. I do. I also hate him because of what a racist, sexist, scumbag he is. But Hulk Hogan is not the figure that brought wrestling to the masses. What he is is the figure who WWF was able to use as a bludgeon to go National --- Board 8's Voice of Reason https://imgur.com/AWY4xHy |

Eddv 07/15/20 5:08:59 AM #351 | I feel the way about Hogan that Steiner feels about Edge. I loved Hogan. He was my absolute favorite long, long past when that was a widely acceptable point of view. I still think the moment his cheesy wcw theme hit and he came out as Hulk, not Hollywood was one of the best moments of late era WCW. I loved him vs Rock, I loved the Mr America angle, hell I even kinda liked Immortal and the rest of his TNA run. I could not bring myself to vote for him. The only thing bringing me comfort is he does belong here over people like fucking Mick Foley let alone lol Hall and Nash and Warrior. --- Board 8's Voice of Reason https://imgur.com/AWY4xHy |
