R.I.P .OLE ANDERSON

[@VolumedMusicMan]

I can’t believe all what Ole says. Yes Ric’s no Mr. Rogers, however Ric drew big houses in the Mid Atlantic area against Steamboat, Piper, Mulligan, Wahoo and others. He sold out cards in Toronto, Atlanta and St. Louis as well. We all know Ric’s style because he’s been in so many big matches for so many years. It’s easy to say that. His credentials are impeccable.

[@paulsoxl7739]

[@bigj6143]

Truth is you can say hundreds of good and bad things about Ric Flair but fact is he is legendary, everyone, including Ole, knows him, was better off financially with him, and nobody remembers Ole anymore. But, they remember Flair and will for generations.

Dale was on the Olympic Greco-Roman team and was a two time NCAA champion at Oklahoma.

He came out after the matches and talked for about an hour with all of us at ringside. He was a great guy.

[@shawnflanagan4995]

well, it's more important, and better for fans, if wrestlers gave good matches, even if they do look similar, than it is for wrestlers to mix things up for the sake of mixing things up, and match quality to suffer. flair was arguably the best all-around in the world from 1980-ish through like 1993. noone really disputes that, regardless of how he did it. what wrestlers don't have a handful of moves and spots that they do regularily?

[@DabsDad]

@@shawnflanagan4995 Wrestling the same match worked just fine in the territory days. not so much after imo. I stopped watching wrestling in 1987.

[@shawnflanagan4995]

well, ok. but you've missed a lot of really good stuff. for all of his complaining about things like patterned natches, ole did the same handful of things in a lot of his matches. all the working a guy's arm and/or shoulder. the short little punches. cutting off the ring in tag team matches. trapping a guy's arm behind his back on bodyslams. but he did all of that very well.

[@PB-md3nt]

Yes every match consisted of him going to the top ropes only to be body slammed from it. Running along the ring apron and getting clothselined....The infamous three steps and face first plop into the mat. That being said, it was still funny as hell to watch.

[@greyskywarren6028]

Ole is just bitter. He has always been so salty and miserable, and was so overrated in his career. To say Ric wasn't a good worker is just ignorant. The NWA obviously had faith in him, making him champion multiple times during an era where Dusty and Harley Race were top draws. Ole was never World Champion, never even a contender for the title. Flair has always spoken about Ole in a favorable and rrspectful light, regardless of what he did OUTSIDE of the ring. And for the record, Flair has never referred to himself as the greatest, as he always defers that title to someone else.

[@karenheuer2081]

Not even close, considering that hegstrand and laurinaitis knew each other long before they started working as the road warriors, first in Chicago as kids, then in Minnesota as teens. They were bouncers together and trained together, and this was BEFORE they even met Ole. The most he MIGHT be able to claim is tweaking their look.

[@pulsarlights2825]

@@karenheuer2081 Chicago? They had nothing to do with Chicago in real life. They all knew each other from Minnesota/high school, Joe L, Hawk, Rick Rude, Nikita, Barry Darsow, and a few others, but it was Ole who supposedly came up with the Mad Max motorcycle gimmick...I think Animal started by himself as a lone Road Warrior when he first went to Georgia....

Ole was right about Hulk Hogan as far as not drawing a dime in the NWA. In Georgia even though it was a work the NWA concentrated more on the wrestling aspect of it and in the WWWF they concentrated more on the entertainment side of it. Thats why when Hulk Hogan came to WCW he didn’t understand why he didn’t get over like he did up north. Same with the Undertaker. Ric was once a good wrestler before he started wrestling the same match as Ole said night after night.
