About this episode
On this episode of Grilling JR, The Voice of Wrestling Jim Ross and host Conrad Thompson take us back to 1984 for an extremely rare treat. JR sits down to call a forgotten classic — Ric Flair vs. Ricky Steamboat from the Meadowlands in East Rutherford, New Jersey. While most fans point to their legendary 1989 trilogy, The Nature Boy himself has often said that some of his very best work with Steamboat happened years earlier. He's even described their 1984 clashes as "lightning in a bottle," a perfect blend of chemistry, timing, and intensity between two all-time greats. Now, for the first time, JR provides commentary on this overlooked masterpiece — calling Flair vs. Steamboat as only he can, with insight, passion, and the storytelling magic that made him the most iconic voice in wrestling history.
