    Favorite Starrcade

    I'm listening to the Starrcade 1995 episode of 83 Weeks w/ Eric Bischoff and it got me thinking.....Favorite Starrcade?

    I've always been torn between 1995 and 1996 as my favorites. I haven't seen enough of the older 80's shows as I'm sure they had some pretty good ones back in the day. But yeah, 95 or 96 for me.

    Starrcade 97 'cause of the build between Sting and Hogan.

    I'm partial however to 96 'cause Piper/Hogan is one of the greatest matches of all time. Rey vs Liger is one of the best athletic performances from a junior, too.

    I'm going to have to watch all of the Starrcades to be fair

    Starrcade 1991 for me. I love everything about it. Especially Abdullah the Butcher and Cactus Jack.

    1993 was a good one with Austin vs. Rhodes. The early Starrcades were tremendous.

    I've watched through the 80s Starrcades; the Andersons vs the Rock N Roll Express is the highlight of all so far.

    The early Starrcades were bloody affairs. The Magnum TA/tully blanchard i quit cage match was specifically brutal. Not excellent like their regular i quit match, just violent.

    Sting deserves credit for purveying a new standard in athletic wrestling displays. He was really the change in the game

    I've always said that Starrcade '98 felt like a Nitro on PPV.

    There came a time, and this is relevant even today, that Nitro/Thunder would be so stacked you couldn't tell the difference between ppv and tv show. We see that even today. Thanks a lot Bischoff for killing the "jobber".
