Starrcade '83 was a revolutionary event for it's time. It is considered to be the first pay per view event and launched the wrestling business towards pay per views. Three matches from Starrcade on on the list, so this is part one, with the NWA Tag Team titles on the line.
This was a rather good match here for tag team wrestling. A good story was told here and you could feel the drama within the match. In the beginning of the match, it's Steamboat and Youngblood gaining the advantage over the veteran Brisco Brothers. The Brisco's would finally cut them off and take advantage of Steamboat and beat on him. Steamboat would get the hot tag from Youngblood, but the Brisco's cut him off as well. Steamboat and Youngblood would gain the advantage again, and with a Steamboat assisted press slam with Youngblood, they would get the pinfall and win the belts.
My Grade: A-
A very enjoyable match for the tag straps.
