Summary

On this episode of Grilling JR, Jim and Conrad look back 33 years at Starrcade 1987: Chi-town Heat, which took place on Thanksgiving - November 26, 1987 from the UIC Pavilion in Chicago, IL. It was the first NWA event to be broadcast on PPV, and not without controversy, as the WWF would run its inaugural Survior Series PPV event head-to-head that same night. The main event would feature Ric Flair vs. Ron Garvin inside a steel cage for the NWA Championship. Plus, Dusty Rhodes vs. Lex Luger, Arn and Tully vs. The Road Warriors, and much more!
