In the 1980s WWF kept the top title on a babyface the majority of the time while the NWA kept the top title on a heel the majority of the time. As a kid, did you prefer a face or a heel with the top title and do you prefer a face or a heel with the top title now?

King Kong Bundy beat SD Jones Sep 26, 1985 in New Haven, CT. I'll bet SD & Bundy wrestled more than the 9 seconds (actual 23 seconds) at the 1st WrestleMania. Fans also saw the Dream Team defend the Tag Belts against the Bees & Tito defend the IC Title vs Savage

One Man Gang pinned George The Animal Steele Sep 26, 1987 in Landover, MD. Gang missed a couple shows leading up to this bout & the match lasted less than a minute so it's possible he was nursing an injury at the time
