Starrcade
is back, and for the first time in 30 years, it's
coming home.
On
Saturday, Nov. 25, during Thanksgiving weekend, Starrcade
returns when the Superstars of SmackDown LIVE descend
on Greensboro, N.C., for a historic event at the Greensboro
Coliseum.
The
premier event of the National Wrestling Alliance and,
later, WCW, Starrcade got its start in Greensboro
on Thanksgiving 1983 with a star-studded lineup that
saw Ric Flair defeat Harley Race to win his second
of 16 World Championships. Starrcade remained in Greensboro
through 1986 and was the stage on which legendary
performers like Dusty Rhodes, The Four Horsemen, Magnum
TA, The Rock 'n' Roll Express and many more etched
their names into sports-entertainment history.
As
the calendar turned to the 1990s, a new generation
of competitors emerged to take the Starrcade spotlight,
like Sting, Vader and the nWo. The last edition of
Starrcade under the WCW banner took place in December
2000.
Now,
fans in Greensboro will get the opportunity to be
a part of history, as Starrcade returns with an absolutely
stacked card featuring two Steel Cage Matches. Matches
announced* for the return of Starrcade include:
WWE
Championship Steel Cage Match
Jinder
