Dana White's Clash of the Champions

As we reported a bit earlier, UFC is now personally invested in being Strikeforce's direct competition, in a move that will almost assuredly work out in the UFC's favor. Dana White seems to be taking this whole "Fedor Emelianenko" thing pretty seriously, so now he's set the wheels in motion for head-to-head programming. The first thing that came to my mind when I heard about this was remembering the actions of another bombastic promoter encountering something similar in the late 1980s: one Vince McMahon.
While the then-WWF and their rivals the NWA always were involved in indirect competition, something changed in 1987 when a scheduling war erupted.

Perhaps the only good thing to come out of the WWE's Invasion angle was Rob Van Dam.

Greatest Summerslam Matches: (#20) Mankind vs HHH vs Steve Austin- '99
![]()
Summerslam 99 is remembered for a few matches that mostly defined what it was like to watch WWE programming during this time period. In the undercard you had Steve Blackman taking on Ken Shamrock in a Lion's Den Match. The greatest "huh?" tag team of all time, Kane & X-Pac, took on the Undertaker & The Big Show for the World tag belts. You also had The Rock buried in a "Kiss My Ass" match with Billy Gunn, a feud that makes you wonder if the writers had literally ran out of EVERY idea for The Rock at this point. But in the main event, you had a triple threat match for the WWE World Heavyweight Title between Stone Cold Steve Austin, Triple H, and Mankind, with special guest referee Jesse "The Body" Ventura.

History of Wrestling: "What you gonna do when Ric Flair runs wild on you?!?"

It was the feud that every wrestling fan had been waiting for. It was the closest that fans at that time thought they would ever get to a WWF vs WCW battle. Hulk Hogan vs Ric Flair. Much like the Invasion angle 10 years later, it could only disappoint.
