I would have watched and enjoyed that
Seems to be going in the right direction and not too far fetched. I dont like absurd things like Sting showing up or stuff like that so, so far so good. I’m not a fan of people who werent involved so interested in Ric Flair and Big Bossman throughout 1993. It wouldn’t be to unrealistic though for WWF to have been able to keep them both in the fold. Also interested to see if Giant Gonzales, Hulk Hogan or Brutus Beefcake will even factor into 1993. All were major players in the real WWF. Plus here is hoping Mooney stays longer. SEAN MOONEY eqauls RATINGS!
