SDL is such crap right now. Even that card looks terrible. They really should've sent over Balor or Rollins when they did the shake-up.

I never realized there were two R's in Starrcade.

Why

There was an 80s game show called Starcade so probably copyright issues.

They better get Michael Buffer to do the main event introductions.

And the main event should have a taser spot

Did not mean the logo, but the WWE in front of it.

It will feel and look like every other bland WWE product, it won’t be Starrcade.

Feuding with Mankind? Not even close.

In terms of workrate it isn't even close to what WWE had between 2001-2003. And the characters are either unimaginative or completely generic. Guys look stock as ever. To stand out WWE tries putting these labels on guys and comes off forced as hell, ie. Seth Rollins or Dean Ambrose.

Five years had Taker at 95. Nice try. (And I'll give you his highs were better, but Taker's prime was a good decade plus after he started.) Dude stunk up 99-2001.

I agree. The only thing current WWE talent have over the old guard is athleticism. Theres a lot more to being a wrestler than being athletic. You need charisma, in ring psychology, distinct look and some good entrance tunes. How many current stars have have 2/3rds of that besides Nak, Finn, AJ, SZ, KO, Roode and Joe?

...so it's not going to air on the WWE Network. Oh well.

Michael Hayes Invites Cody Rhodes To Team With Goldust At WWE Starrcade

Starrcade was the creation of Dusty Rhodes and WWE producer Michael Hayes wants to honor that by having Cody Rhodes and his brother Goldust team at the upcoming live event.

As we previously reported, WWE announced this morning that they'd be reviving the Starrcade name for a live event in Greensboro, North Carolina next month and Cody reacted on Twitter by saying, "Dear @MichaelPSHayes1 If you're afraid an event won't sell cuz' the holiday and want one of my Dad's events...at least book Goldy.."

Hayes responded by saying, "So Cody, UR right we should have Goldy on the show, by the way, what R U doing that night??? Wanna team with UR Brother?"

Ohhhhh! Thanks for posting this.

I was familiar with only the "triangles" logo with ITC Machine and had assumed that typeface was used since time immemorial.

I'd be down for it. Rhodes Bros. vs the Shield was almost MOTY.
