WWF 1992

[SRN]

1992

In the 90's, the WWF began to go downwards. Less and less people would show up at their house-hold shows and they were paidly losing money and popularity. People were getting more and more tired of Hulk Hogan's old act. Not to say that he did'nt bring ratings, just.. not as mushc as he used to do.

The WWF's biggest star was on his way down.

And he was taking the whole company with him, generally speaking. Also one of the WWF's most loveable stars had just retired, in André The Giant. If the WWF did'nt come up with something new, failure and bankruptcy, were inadverteble. WWF had nowhere to go! Their eternal rival, WCW, was probably in a great mood, seeing the WWF decline in everything but superstars. Because even though WCW were gaining the upper hand, WWF still had the biggest roster. They had accumulated the biggest collection of stars over the years, even though WCW was bitting at their toes.

The WWF are falling down a pit,

a seemingly bottomless pit.

Looking Good. I will be reading (Y) , I love diaries between the sort of late 80s around to 1993/4. I'll be interested to see what this 'something new' is, personally I think you should push Shawn Michaels and Mr. Perfect a little, I having never been a fan of Hulk Hogan hopes he doesn't get the title. I always wanted to see Mr. Perfect with the WWF Title around his waist. Or Ted DiBiase for that matter... but no such luck... Looking forward to the first show.

[andrethegiantstopfan]

Loving the build-up between Savage and Flair... I see a big match coming up soon, perhaps at The Rumble or even WrestleMania VIII. Good to see DiBiase acting sneaky again attacking Bret Hart during that match with Mountie, could be a nice feud there too, I'm developing that one at the moment too.. well sort of. Ric Flair vs. Shawn Michaels would've been a superb match-up for that time

Just one thing I just noticed, where is the roster list? I'd just like to see who's on it... and to see who's face and heel... although I liked that era and know a little about it I was only 0 at the time. Otherwise keep it up, going very well.

[SRN]

Just one thing I just noticed, where is the roster list?

It's on purpose that there is no roster list, as I would like you to see if a particualr wrestler was face or heel, through his actions.

You could still put the names up though.

Interesting to see who's going to win the Rumble and become Champion. And I hope your write up is more reader-friendly than mine, mine didn't get a good response. It was far too detailed. I don't know about having both a battle royal and a Royal Rumble on one card though.

My predictions:

Bret Hart vs. Ted DiBiase - I could never really see DiBiase with the IC title, so I'm going to go with Bret to win this one, but the feud should carry on and DiBiase should slate a few wins.

Legion of Doom vs. Natural Disasters vs. Rockers - I'm going to go with Natural Disasters perhaps pinning one of the Rockers, they were good tag team champions.

10 Man Battle Royal - Owen Hart should definitely win this one, perhaps eliminating Mr. Perfect or The Bulldog to win. He could start the new title off with a bang

Royal Rumble - who's in it? If Flair's in it, I'm going to go with him, perhaps cheating his way to eliminate Savage or another upper card face.

Iv'e been enjoying this you and ATGTF have 2 nice little retro diaries going here. I like the Savage-Flair stuff and I like how it is true to the era with lots of squash matches on the smaller shows and saving the big match's for Prime Time and PPV

Bret Hart vs. Ted DiBiase, for the WWF Intercontinental Championship.- rising superstar hopefully di Biase will go after the big title

The Natural Disasters vs. The Legion Of Doom vs. The Rockers; for the WWF Tag Team Championship.- I feel that they have the advantage, I can see you splitting the rockers up soon

10 Man Battle Royal; for the WWF National Championship.

Paticipants: Owen Hart, Sgt. Sluaghter, British Bulldog, IRS, Big Bossman, Jimmy Snuka, Mr. Perfect, Papa Shango, El Matador and Rick Martel.- I think the bulldog will pick up the win here I don't really know why I was stuck between him and Owen Hart I just think a non-american will win

The Royal Rumble; for the WWF World Championship- I have 3 people I think could win, Ric Flair, Randy Savage and Mr. Perfect

[andrethegiantstopfan]

I was stuck between Owen and The Bulldog too. Like you, I hope DiBiase goes after the world title instead of Intercontinental or National.
