I'm in the UK and the wrestling boom here happened in 1992 rather than the '80s and then again in 2000 it was massive. Personally I watched WWF from about 1991/2 until '95 and then lost interest in until late '98 and then watched it from then until Vince bought WCW and haven't really bothered watching since. Saw some of the old school ECW video tapes as well. One of my housemates in my last house is a huge wrestling fan and I would sometimes watch AEW with him.
As far as the GWM in wrestling Lita and Chyna were my favs. A bit after my time in terms of watching it but I also like Mickie James and Becky Lynch
Now I know she isn't popular and I really get why, but is it just me or has Maxxine Dupri been gaining seriously? A year ago she was just skinny with a hint of Quads, now there is some muscle. Like this week for example, am I the only one that noticed her shoulders for example?
I don't agree with Jim Cornette on a lot, but his Kentucky drawl is like chewing gum for the ears, lol
