Pulsar, I agree WWE isn't strong nowadays, but if you have missed the last 10 years, watch the Brock Lesnar vs. Roman Reigns main event at Wrestlemania 31 (in 2015); I'm an old school wrestling fan from the 80's/90's but that match is one of the best I've seen; of course it helps if you understood everything that transpired leading up to that moment; truly one of the most surprising endings I've ever seen; one of the rare times the WWE writers pulled off an ending that left jaws dropped all across the arena.

For those of us who grew up watching NWA, there will never be another like Flair. While Hogan was having circus matches Flair was stylin' and profilin' and going 60 minutes with top wrestlers in the world. Flair's legacy is not something that can be taken away or discontinued like a cable service. It lives on in the hearts and minds of all true wrestling fans for generations.

Flair deserves all the respect in the world for his professional career. But you don't have to disrespect hogan's career when trying to defend ric flair's career. Wrestling is just not about what happens in the ring. A complete wrestler, can not only fight in the ring, a complete wrestler most have charisma, mic skills, work ethic, and a lot more stuff. Hogan was the top wrestler for almost 20 years, and probably half of those years or more, he was in the same company as Ric was, and Ric was never rated better than hogan when they were together. If Ric was so valuable as hogan why Ric could never command a better salary than hogan? why Ric could never sell more than hogan in merchandise or draw more than Hogan? Even thought Ric flair's prime was in the golden era of wrestling, he couldn't generate the same kind of interest Hogan drew.

The WWE was pretty much dying while CM Punk was over, and he was poking holes in the company's practices, the entire time. I'd say that having Batista win the Royal Rumble and putting Daniel Bryan up against he and Triple H was where everything had immediately plummeted off of a cliff. Nothing could've saved the WWE, after that. Even hiring Sting, giving Kane a mask again, and getting Edge back were acts which have merely delayed the inevitable. It's a wasted effort, them doing anything more to save face, imo.

Ric Flair, great wrestler and a brilliant performer without a shadow of a doubt. However, Vince Machon and the WWE did protect him from facing legal action and kept him in the job as long as they did, especially after watching The Dark side of the ring documentary " Plane ride to hell " where Ric Flair got so intoxicated, he exposed himself to an air hostess. Most of the wrestlers on that flight were either fired or were punished in various ways. Ric got a free pass because of who he is. That incident cost the company hundreds of thousands of pounds ( dollars in the US ) so, Ric shouldn't complain about title belts and alimonies.

He should remember how much he appreciated that then and move on.

They used the young wrestler Top Dolla, who they just released, to make the case for the company, having him plead that he had a small budget and would get in trouble with WWE management if he couldn't get the items. In some cases, wrestlers like Kane wanted to sell the items to WWE with the money going to charity.

Ric Flair is the true G.O.A.T. nobody can take away his greatness. Having said this is don't wanna see him in the ring or doing anything wrestling. We do need him occasionally on TV. I was WWF as a kid and one day my stepdad was watching NWA/WCW and I saw Flair and became a fan and I was so excited when he joined WWF and his Incredible run. I loved his run late in WWE because he's a legend and like Hogan wrestling wouldn't be the same without Flair.

It annoys me that the guy on podcast has no interest in what Ric flair is talking about and how his legacy being erased was affecting him. Especially when he said " I could be dead tomorrow " broke my heart the nature boy is 72. He wants something back that belongs to him and means so much to him and part of who he is. Ric Flair gave over 40 years of his life to wrestling! And this guy had the nerve to say " No you can't die tomorrow we need you to finish this podcast today" who the hell says that. Thank you Ric flair for all that you've done and I'm talking to the Rolex wearing diamond ring wearing kiss stealing WOO wealing dealing son of a gun and I know till this day your having a hard time keeping your alligator shoes on.

ABSOLUTELY NOBODY COMES TO MIND. WRESTLING GOT THIS FAR TODAY AND SELLING OUT STADIUMS BECAUSE OF GUYS LIKE RIC FLAIR AND ANYONE WHO WRESTLED HIM WHO WAS A NOBODY THAT GOT TO START A STORY LINE WITH HIM THEN BECAME FAMOUS THEMSELVES, HE IS THE HEARTBEAT OF PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING WHO HELPED TO MAKE MANY CAREERS AS HE WENT ALONG AND HE IS THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME WHEN IT CAME TO CUTTING A PROMO, NOBODY EVEN COMES CLOSE TO HIM.
