13 Biggest Matches WWE Should've Booked In The 80s (But Didn't)
12. Ultimate Warrior Vs. Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat
Think about this for a second... Together, Hulk Hogan and the Ultimate Warrior created a more than memorable main event match for WrestleMania VI despite the limited in-ring abilities of both men. And the following year, Randy Savage and Warrior produced the greatest match of the Ultimate Warrior's entire career. Given the limited abilities of Hogan and Warrior, imagine what Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat could have done if put in this position. Ricky Steamboat and The Ultimate Warrior were always babyfaces, remaining as good guys throughout their entire career. With that in mind, there really was never any time in which they could have realistically expected to be paired against each other. Still, in the 80s, these two were at the top of the industry and this clashing of styles would've been interesting to see how it held up to some of Warrior's other matches.
