Episode 392: 6 Years, 29 Foes: Ranking Backlund’s MSG Challengers

Bob Backlund’s championship reign defined late 70s and early 80s WWF wrestling. Yet a great champion is only as good as the challengers across the ring, and Backlund faced some of the very best. The lineup of challengers who tried to take his title reads like a who’s who of the era.

On this episode we count down and debate his greatest foes, revisit the rivalries that shaped his legacy, and relive the matches that kept fans coming back for more every month. On this episode we rank the best of them, discuss what made each rivalry unique, and decide who truly brought out the best in the champion.
