W.W.F. Superstars of Wrestling (1984-1992) was my window into the world of wrestling as a kid. I remembered watching the stars of the eighties using this show to cut promos and squash jobbers. The wrestlers would also host their own talk shows. Roddy Piper, Jesse "The Body" Ventura and Adrian Adonis were among the wrestlers who would either praise the evil wrestlers or cut promos and beat up on the "good guys". The wrestlers would also hock their t-shirts and a ton of other useless merchandise on this program.

Vincent K. McMahon made a lot of money and created a whole new generation of wrestling fans. Over the years with the popularity of Cable T.V. ever growing, this show was slowly phased out and it eventually left regular t.v. for cable. But it was a step child of the W.W.F. programs and it soon became a recap show and then it was put out of it's misery. But during the eighties, every kid on the block was watching it.
