Lex Luger was a charisma vacuum shitter who never drew a dime even with the Vince mega push.

Cornette mentioned both of these as worthy of consideration for the title of best angle of all time but i think one is vastly superior to the other
In my opinion the Lawler/Dundee episode of memphis TV doesn't hold up on it's own, much less compared to DiBiase's face turn. The king is quiet for most of it and Dundee gets more repetitive as the segment progresses

I watched that hour long match between Curt Hennig and Nick Bockwinkel. One of the best matches I’ve ever seen. They really keep you invested throughout.

Yeah that match is great. I don't think they ever even did an irish whip but still managed to make an exciting bout mostly through holds
Imo the last stretch should've had a somewhat faster pace and the finish wasn't perfectly done but still, a real classic
