Episode 387: Discovering Enhancement

This week on STICK TO WRESTLING we beat the rush and review Starrcade ’85, The Gathering! Talking points include:

–The Magnum T.A. vs Tully Blanchard “I Quit” Cage Match was the best Cage Match of the 80’s, the best Starrcade match ever, and the best U.S. match not involving Ric Flair of the entire decade.
–The finish of the Ric Flair vs Dusty Rhodes main event for the NWA title left many fans unsatisfied. What should the finish have been?
–There were too many title matches, too many gimmick matches, and far too much blood spilled. Starrcade ’85 was a tremendous and memorable event regardless.
–Some traditional Mid-Atlantic Wrestling fans were disappointed that they were sharing this event with Atlanta. Did the promotion have a choice?
–This was the biggest night of Buddy Landell’s life, but it should not have been. We fill you in on the details.
