Starrcade (1994 TV Special)
Average Wrestling Event
9 June 2002
In my opinion late 1993 up to mid 1996 was an uneventful time for World Championship Wrestling. It's main stars such as Hulk Hogan and Sting were undoubtedly popular but the actual wrestling action was very sub-standard. In fact, the actual television shows themselves such as WCW Saturday Night and WCW Worldwide were often better than the PPV events themselves.

There was nothing memorable about this event apart from maybe Mr T of The A-Team battling the maniacal Kevin Sullivan and Hacksaw Jim Duggan facing Big Van Vader. The rest of the card was unmemorable with nothing particularly exciting.

The main event pitted Hulk Hogan against his old friend The Butcher. I was always a big fan of Hulk Hogan but the Butcher was not a main event type of wrestler and this made the main event quite unexceptional. I suppose fans did enjoy it because Hogan got revenge on a friend turned enemy but it was not what you'd call a great main event.
