If you compare the wrestling talent of the 80s (NWA/AWA, WWF, WCW) to the wrestling talent of the present (WWE, TNA/NWA) which do you think has the better talent wrestling wise?
I personally think the wrestling talent of the 80s was better and the IMO I liked its entertainment value more as well.

80's easily
Half the top stars today would never make it to mid - card in the 80's,example Magnum TA,Ricky Steamboat,Barry Windham,Tully Blanchard,Dick Slater,Jake Roberts,etc were all better than John Cena,Mark Henry,JBL,etc
And if the mid carders of the 80's were around today,they would be huge stars

80s by a mile! The idea of wrestlers calling there own match in the ring which made for better matched when something screwed up. With the guys now haven't to memorize a 12 min match...it sux bad!
