The event solely featured the Iron Man and Iron Team tournaments. The participants were Sting, Lex Luger, Ric Flair and The Great Muta for the Iron Man tournament, and Doom, The Steiner Brothers, The Road Warriors and The New Wild Samoans (replacing The Skyscrapers due to Sid Vicious' injury) for the Iron Team tournament. This event varied from other Starrcade events by only featuring the tournaments, only showcasing a small amount of wrestlers, and not featuring title defenses. The event led to a feud between Sting and Flair after a brief alliance as members of the Four Horsemenstable.

How They Buried The Great Muta at Starrcade '89
Note: This is a re-edit--see below for details Also, if you liked this video, please consider subscribing. We appreciate it. What The Great Muta's United States career could have been if not for Starrcade '89 remains one of professional wrestling's greatest "what ifs." Take a look back at some old school wrestling with us as we take a look at what happened to The Great Muta at Starrcade 1989: Future Shock!
We had a version of this video up before, but I had to edit out some footage. I don't mind. I do my best to avoid any copyright stuff and want the focus to be on the commentary, but that video was doing very well for us as a beginning channel, so I did a re-edit. It also gave me a chance to fix a few things, and write a new ending based on Muta getting into the 2023 Hall of Fame!
