The 1980s professional wrestling boom (more commonly referred to as the Golden Era and the Rock 'n' Wrestling Era) was a surge in the popularity of professional wrestling in the United States and elsewhere throughout the 1980s. The expansion of cable television and pay-per-view, coupled with the efforts of promoters such as Vince McMahon, saw professional wrestling shift from a system controlled by numerous regional companies to one dominated by two nationwide companies: McMahon's World Wrestling Federation (WWF, now WWE) and Ted Turner's World Championship Wrestling (WCW). The decade also saw a considerable decline in the power of the National Wrestling Alliance (NWA), a cartel which had until then dominated the wrestling landscape, and in the efforts to sustain belief in the kayfabe of w

  • L'espansione del wrestling negli anni ottanta (più comunemente nota come Golden Age) è stata un'ondata di popolarità del wrestling negli Stati Uniti e nel resto del mondo negli anni ottanta. La diffusione della televisione via cavo e degli eventi in pay-per-view, insieme alle novità introdotte da Vince McMahon, vide la trasformazione del panorama del pro-wrestling da un fenomeno controllato da federazioni regionali ad un sistema dominato da due grandi federazioni, la World Wrestling Federation (WWF) e la World Championship Wrestling (WCW) di Ted Turner. Questo periodo segnò anche un forte declino del potere della National Wrestling Alliance (NWA), un cartello di federazioni regionali che aveva dominato il panorama del wrestling fino ad allora, e dei suoi tentativi di presentare il wrestlin (it)
  • Ekspansja wrestlingu w Stanach Zjednoczonych w latach 80. XX wieku (lub też boom wrestlingowy w Stanach Zjednoczonych w latach 80. XX wieku) – określenie gwałtownego wzrostu popularności wrestlingu w telewizji (w szczególności w telewizji kablowej oraz w formacie pay-per-view) mające miejsce w Stanach Zjednoczonych w latach osiemdziesiątych XX wieku m.in. za sprawą Hulka Hogana, który stał się głównym popularyzatorem wrestlingu w Stanach Zjednoczonych i na świecie, dzięki tzw. Hulkamanii. Często również na określenie ekspansji wrestlingu w latach 80. używa się terminu Golden Era (pol. złota era). Okres boomu wrestlingowego w Stanach Zjednoczonych szacuje się na lata 1983–1992. (pl)
  • Профессиональный рестлинг-бум 1980-х годов (англ. 1980s professional wrestling boom) (более известная как Золотая эра (англ. Golden Era) и Эра рок-н-рестлинга (англ. Rock 'n' Wrestling Era)) был всплеском популярности профессионального рестлинга в Соединенных Штатах и других странах на протяжении 1980-х годов. В связи с расширением кабельного телевидения и платного телевидения в сочетании с усилиями таких промоутеров, как Винс Макмэн, профессиональный рестлинг перешел от системы, контролируемой многочисленными региональными компаниями, к системе, в которой доминируют две общенациональные компании: Всемирная федерация рестлинга Макмэна (WWF, ныне WWE) и World Championship Wrestling (WCW) Теда Тернера. Данное десятилетие также ознаменовалось значительным снижением могущества National Wrestli (ru)
