This is a comprehensive review of the greatest wrestling trilogy of all time. We will hear no other contenders! In 1989, "Nature Boy" Ric Flair took on Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat at 3 separate events: Chi-Town Rumble, Clash of the Champions VI: Ragin' Cajun, and WrestleWar '89: Music City Showdown. All 3 events kind of sucked and drew like crap. However, the one and only match from all 3 events that anyone was talking about (and is still talking about to this day) is Flair vs. Steamboat. Your Main Event Marks watched all 3 events in full and will review the main event matches for you in detail, giving our opinions as well as the opinions from Uncle Dave Meltzer in the Wrestling Observer "News" letter at the time. linktr.ee/MainEventMarks Learn more about your ad choices.

In our second installment from our NWA/WCW 1989 series, we go down to the bayou for Clash of the Champions 6. After Ric Flair and Ricky Steamboat's epic 5-star battle at Chi-Town Rumble, Flair gets his rematch in a two out of three falls match. There are only 4 matches on Peacock's version of this event, and aside from the opener which featured the Midnight Express facing off against the Samoan Swat Team (featuring Fatu before he was Fat), there isn't much else to write home about. Oh, except the fact that The Great Muta was a bad mutafuc... Also discussed: an update on the AEW madness, The Rock vs Roman Reigns at Wrestlemania, Cody Rhodes winning the WWE title, and Andrew got a new cat! 00:00 - 20:11 AEW, WWE, Andrew's cat Hobbes 20:11 - 1:54:56 WCW Clash of the Champions 6: Ragin' Cajun
Dusty has long wanted to introduce Andrew to the NWA's 1989 offerings, and we are finally taking the plunge. Things were in a transitional (and sometimes tumultuous) phase following a few changes to WCW including the firing of Dusty Rhodes as booker, but they still had Flair, and they still offered a brand of wrestling that appealed to the classic fan: the characters were believable, the wrestling was believable, and Rick Steiner was in the building. In this episode, we discuss the Chi-Town Rumble from February 1989, which featured a lot of fun and was anchored by a 5-star classic turned in by Flair and Steamboat for the NWA title.

Also on the undercard were the Nasty Boys taking on Cactus Jack and Maxx Payne in a wild Street Fight, Dustin Rhodes and Buckhouse Buck in a bloody Bunkhouse match, Steven Regal defending his TV Title against Brian Pillman, Steve Austin defending his US Title against Great Muta, and Rick Rude's final WCW pay-per-view wrestling appearance against Sting for the International World Heavyweight Title (big gold).

It's Valentine's Day and The Random Wrestling Review is getting into the spirit of things by covering a Valentine themed wrestling show. In February of 1989, the NWA was gearing up for the Chi-Town Rumble and had one big stop off on the way, with the latest Clash of the Champions television special on TBS. This one features a major angle between Ric Flair and Ricky Steamboat, as well as the likes of Lex Luger, The Road Warriors, Butch Reed, The Midnight Express and Rick Stiner in action.

Kris Zellner & Dylan Hales welcome you to the second episode of our new podcast series, The Pay Windah, in which we go over the history of World Championship Wrestling. This time out, we go over the month of February 1989, where George Scott has fully taken over the promotion. Everything is being molded in his vision, but that is a major problem. We talk about the mistakes he made in signing talent, the total lack of build for the Clash of the Champions in Cleveland, the booking and layout of the matches both on the Clash and Chi-Town Rumble, as well as the debacles that were NWA house shows in that era. We also talk about Ric Flair & Ricky Steamboat, though, who are the true highlights of the promotion, but Steamboat is grating on some fans due to his portrayal on TV.

This is the match that kicked off the infamous Ric Flair/Ricky Steamboat trilogy of 1989. While this was before the Marks' time, they can appreciate some old school NWA. The show may have dragged in the beginning, but it picked up near the end. A lot of moving and shaking happened during this time period, including big controversies with the WWF admitting publicly that wrestling is "fake" *gasp* and some backstabbing to Ted Turner by pay-per-view providers.

One Midnight Express needs to go, find out which one! Unfortunately, we have to sit through another Lex Luger match, UGH. However, it's against "Pure Evil" Barry Windham so it balances out. We've got Chicago's own Road Warriors tearing it up. Then...our main event. The first in a trilogy of matches, Ric Flair vs. Ricky Steamboat for the NWA Title. It's a hell of a match!

Bruiser Brody and Stan Hansen from 1984, Ric Flair Vs. Ricky Steamboat from Chi-Town Rumble in 1989, Mitsuharu Misawa Vs. Jumbo Tsuruta from 1990, as well as Shawn Michaels Vs. Undertaker from Hell In A Cell, at Badd Blood 1997. A stacked show breaking down and analysing what made these classics classics, with a ton of analysis and lessons learned along the way. Let us know what you think!
In this free preview of the latest Between The Sheets Patreon special, covering George Scott's brief run booking WCW in early 1989, Kris and David look at the famously awful Clash of the Champions: St. Valentine's Massacre special just five days before the Chi-Town Rumble pay-per-view event. Jack Reynolds's awful announcer tryout, Steven Dane going 17 minutes for no apparent reason, Jack Victory wrestling twice for no apparent reason, most of the matches having no apparent reason for being booked, the beginning of the end of WCW's relationship with AJPW and Giant Baba, and much more. For the full show, go to Patreon.com/BetweenTheSheets and become a patron for just $5/month. --- Full show description: The year is 1989. Jim Herd has just been hired to run WCW, Jimmy Crockett is basically being ousted as as the chair of the steering committee, and the company needs a booker. So Jim Barnett suggests...George Scott, who hasn't booked in over two years, when he had a disastrous run in World Class after being fired by the WWF. In a little more than two months, George, among other things, decimates the quality of the TV shows, slows the in-ring style to a crawl, book Steven Dane to go 18 minutes, books house show lineups that have no relation to the TV feuds, oversees some disastrous production issues, throws random tag teams together for no apparent reason, hires the green son of one of the opposition's top road agents, makes Jim Cornette and others think he has dementia, gives Jack Reynolds a tryout, and refuses to promote a Clash of the Champions special on TV. It's one of the most infamous major booking runs in wrestling history, and it was covered in-depth in both the Observer and Matwatch, with Steve Beverly also adding additional details in the 1991 Annual/farewell issue. If you love "WCW, everybody!" shows, then this one is for you.

Es rumblet wieder in der Time Machine. Dieses Mal sprechen wir aber nicht über eine WWE-Veranstaltung, sondern über den Chi-Town Rummble 1989. Eine NWA/WCW-Show, die den Auftakt der legendären Fehde zwischen Ric Flair und Ricky Steamboat als Hauptkampf bot. Ob wir uns damit eine klassische One-Match-Card rausgesucht haben, oder ob es da vielleicht noch ein paar versteckte Perlen gibt, das hört ihr in der neuesten Wrestling Time Machine Ausgabe.
Tony's not leaving! But we are covering an NWA show from when Tony DID leave, it's Part II of the Flair-Steamboat Trilogy from 1989! This was the Clash of the Champions from the Superdome in New Orleans that went head-to-head from WrestleMania V! The main event is the rematch from Chi-Town Rumble in Chicago two months prior. This time Ricky Steamboat is the champion and he's defending against the "Nature Boy" Ric Flair in a 2-Out-Of-3 Falls Match that goes nearly an hour. Tony and Conrad are in rare form with the silliness on this episode so fire up the WWE Network to find Clash of the Champions from April 2, 1989, press mute, and let the good times roll!

Kris Zellner & Dylan Hales welcome you to the second episode of our new podcast series, The Pay Windah, in which we go over the history of World Championship Wrestling. This time out, we go over the month of February 1989, where George Scott has fully taken over the promotion. Everything is being molded in his vision, but that is a major problem. We talk about the mistakes he made in signing talent, the total lack of build for the Clash of the Champions in Cleveland, the booking and layout of the matches both on the Clash and Chi-Town Rumble, as well as the debacles that were NWA house shows in that era. We also talk about Ric Flair & Ricky Steamboat, though, who are the true highlights of the promotion, but Steamboat is grating on some fans due to his portrayal on TV.
