Your ring looks sick. Where did you get that ring canvas? Thanks! Canvas is just a regular one from wicked cool toys that came with the authentic scale ring. Just put black ropes on and removed the wwe logo from turnbuckles The canvas looks super glossy. Is it brand new?

Cool thread! My childhood was during the golden era ('85-'93), which to me is still to this day the greatest era of WWE wrestling hands down. Having said that I still respect others opinions and its great to read about how others got into watching wrestling. I did not watch much during the attitude era but like the OP the Dudleys/Hardys/E&C and there wild TLC matches were quite enjoyable. Some of the stunts these guys pulled off were crazy, I can't believe they weren't seriously injured?! Nice to see I am not the only one who did not like the abrupt change into darkness that the WWE descended into from the mid 90s to early 2000s. I just don't see how anyone can enjoy watching the stuff they put out during that time period, some of it was disturbing and other stuff just ridiculous- not entertaining in the least- at least IMHO. The 6 wrestlers that got me hooked were: Macho Man (his promos were legendary) Ricky Steamboat (great technical wrestler) Hulk Hogan (he was for me the 'guy you love to hate' as I was ticked off that it was always him winning the belt) Ultimate Warrior (crazy but every time he entered the arena a shot of adrenaline would go through me) Jake the Snake (great heel wrestler) Andre the Giant

The best thing about the attitude era was the under card and mid card. Austin and the rock got boring after seeing two promos you've seen them all.

Now it just needs a Vanguard 1 drone flying around, maybe Señor Benjamin in the background.
Imagine if TNA still had a toy license. The special Deletion packs would be great! There could be a convention exclusive Broken Matt with a kangaroo. Easy!

Might I suggest, if you can find it, the R3 head for Jeff Hardy? It looks good the way it is, but the R3 head is sized far more closely to Mattel's. Do I need to do any modifications to make it fit? I'm almost positive that you don't

Aside from the TLC matches the only other thing I watched during that era was the Austin - McMahon feud, which started out great but eventually it just got ridiculous IMO. I know this story line was a huge cash cow for McMahon but IMO he kept it going for too long, towards the end some of the things they were doing were just over the top and not all that entertaining. Then they moved on to that whole 'what?' bit which was horribly annoying, I stopped watching at that point then came back in the early 2000s with the WCW invasion storyline then stopped watching for good after that.
The Rock I could never get into, I hated those stupid catch phrases he had and because of that never liked the character.

My six would be keeping itas singles wrestlers... Roddy Piper Sting Mr Wonderful Magnificent Muraco Superfly Snuka Ric Flair
But the Tag Teams would be... Steiner Brothers Road Warriros Hart Foundation British Bulldogs Executioners (Studd and Kowalski) thix team always have a special spot in my heart as they were the first match I remember watching. It was a two out of three falls match for the titles vs Chief Jay Strongbow and I think Billy White Wolf.
Those are the guys that got me into and kept me into wrestling
