Late 2018 for me.
I've marathoned WWF 1996-1999 since then and seen individual shows from 80s Mid-South, Florida, Georgia and Memphis.
For some fucking reason I don't know, Cornette's shoot interview clips wound up in my recommended feed and I started binging them.

Did this macho flair story ever get a payoff? From memory the nwo stuff came along and it was just forgotten about.

Not really. Their last pay-per-view match was a gimmicked tag match at Slamboree, and the last time they really crossed paths was on a Nitro in another tag match when the nWo invaded. Then afterwards it became about Savage (as part of WCW) vs Hogan. Then after that was when Savage was off TV for a couple months before returning in early 1997 to join the nWo and begin his storyline with Diamond Dallas Page, which not only established DDP but added a lot to Macho Man's career as well. Easily one of my feuds he ever did in WCW.

All of that was in pro wrestling television since the early 80s.
