The event, headlined by Sting taking on Ric Flair, went head to head with WWF WrestleMania IV as an answer to the WWF scheduling shows against previous Crockett / NWA cards during late 87 and early 88. The WWF put on the first Survivor Series to go compete with Starrcade 87, and the first televised Royal Rumble went up against Crockett's Bunkhouse Stampede show. Clash of the Champions 1 would air on TBS, for free, on the same night as WrestleMania 4 and many fans believe that Clash of the Champions was a far superior show. Financial issues later in the year would see Crockett sell the promotion to Ted Turner, ultimately leading to the company being rebranded to "World Championship Wrestling" or "WCW" for short, but the first Clash Show was still seen as a big victory for JCP. The Sting vs Flair main event was outstanding, and it's also a main event that helped put Sting on the map.
