WCCW Christmas Star Wars '85

About This Movie

So, WCCW Christmas Star Wars '85 has this gritty, almost chaotic vibe – it’s definitely not your typical holiday wrestling special. The Von Erichs and The Freebirds really go at it, showcasing some wild brawling that captures the raw energy of the time. The pacing is a bit uneven, but it adds to that unpredictable feel, like you never quite know what’s going to happen next. I mean, the practical effects are minimal, but the sheer intensity of the performances makes up for it. It's like a collision of holiday spirit and wrestling rivalries, and that mix somehow works – if you're into that era, it's a real snapshot of the scene.

This title is quite rare, often overshadowed by more mainstream wrestling events from the same period. It originally aired as a special during the holiday season, and copies in good condition are hard to come by due to limited home media releases. Collectors show interest mainly because it captures an interesting moment in wrestling history, blending the charm of the holidays with the fierce rivalries of the '80s wrestling scene.
