Re: ***The Ric Flair Appreciation Thread***

Yeah Flair has really aged in the last 10 years or so. I think the fast living lifestyle finally came back to bite him in the arse.

BTW best Flair moment in WWF/E? Winning the Royal Rumble. I remember Heenan cheering him on and then the promo after Flair won it was just GOLD!

I wonder what the Brain is doing these days. He'd sure make a better comentator than half the WWE guys put together. I don't mind JR and Lawler but the rest of em, JBL included drive me bat**** crazy.

The brain has survived throat cancer and has already been inducted to the hall of fame. I think he jumped back to TNA again.

He made a small apperance in TNA recently. He was trying to become Robert Roode's manager. He's not with them anymore though.

He has inducted someone into the WWE HOF the last 3 years.

Thanks, I hadn't realized he had cancer. Glad to see he recovered. He's another one of those guys from the old days that I always thought was fun to watch, weather it was managing the heels of those days or down at ringside with Gorilla Monsoon. Prolly my favorite combination of play by play/color guys.

My neighborhood

Classic Heenan

I have my agent buy it for me, and if that didn't work I would waffle him out back with a tire iron.

If Monday night is his last match, I would like to say thanks for all the great matches I have seen Ric Flair wrestle. He has been a big influence in my life to say the least. I wish WWE would let him have one last run as "The Champ" before he retires for good.

Nice to see you over here............check out the threads in the entire Wrestling board and how I was referring that the setup is much better.

I wish Flair would get the World Title on last time and lose it to someone at Mania that he could pass the torch too.

I love the way you guys have it setup over here candyman. I wish we could get one as nice as this one over at DSM.

It sucks to only have 1 thread at DSM, but there is no reason not to post in both places now.

I love Flair as much as anyone, but there's no way in hell that he should be headlining Wrestlemania 24.

I would like 1 last run as much as its not ideal........more of a dream.

Re: ***The Ric Flair Appreciation Thread***

Thanks to everyone for the great posts in this thread. To say this one man has been an influenece (?) in my personal life would be a huge understatement. If tomorrow night is his last night, I hope he goes out with a bang! WOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

I think it would be awesome to see a Flair run along with him leading some sort of 4 Horseman.

Yeah, that would be great to see. I wish Vince would let him headline one last WrestleMania as the Champ before he hangs up his wrestling boots for good.

Besides, wouldn't you ranther see Flair headline one last WrestleMaina than Randy Orton, Bobby Lashley, Rey, Undertaker, Bastista, HHH , John Cena or HBK?

After he has finished his title run, let him be like a JJ Dillion was to the 4 horsemen back in the 80s. I know this will never happen but a guy can dream can't he?

I wish we would have seen the 4 Horseman one more time or even a newer Evolution where maybe Flair was the leader with 3 other young guys helping give them the rub till he went out @ WrestleMania. Not that this storyline is bad, I just don't think the WWE puts too much effort in storylines anymore and using Flair @ 150% of his capabilities is what they should be doing.

Imagine Flair as the mouthpiece of these guys........toss in any 3 that you guys think could use that needed rub like what Flair/H did for Orton/Batista a few years ago. Later when he would retire at Mania, Flair would step down as their leader passing the torch to one of these guys...............and then he becomes their JJ Dillon since rumors are that he signed a 3 year contract with the WWE.

It doesn't take much brain work to come up with some cool stuff that people will eat up. This way, he is not made to look like Superman with what their doing right now winning by DQ's, CT's, etc. against guys that would kill a 60 year old man.
