Default Old vs New, which was better?

Pro Wrestling. Before you start, yes I know its rigged, but were the old storylines and angles better than the new?

The days of Ric Flair vs. Dusty Rhodes, the days of Hulk Hogan vs Sgt. Slaughter are days I enjoy revisiting sometimes, with the wonder of YouTube. I've noticed that the angles now are rehashes of days gone by. Those of you who used to watch wrestling (and any of you who still do), what do you think? Is it too artificial now? Is it impossible to really get in to a storyline?

Well you've got to admit, it was cool. I remember growing up watching the Rock, he was always a good entertainer

I guess there had to be somebody that watched it, even though I was conviced it was just filler for airtime.

Superfly, George 'The Animal' Steel, Andre The Giant (before Princess Bride), Ricky 'The Steamboat' Dragon, Jake 'The Snake' Roberts, Jim 'Hacksaw' Dugan, Macho Man Randy Savage with Mrs. Elizabeth, Junkyard Dog, Mean Gene, Cindy Lauper and Captain Lou, Roddy 'Rody' Piper, and the immortal Hulk Hogan...gotta love the 80's wrestling. Who'd ever thought that a cartoon would've been created from that great group of performers?

Wow...wonder what I did on Tuesday nights and Saturday mornings as a kid?:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
