Are there any CURRENT Ric Flair fans here?
 
Personally, I would very much like for Ric Flair to go fuck himself. He needs to stop wrestling right fucking now. I wouldn't mind him as a manager or a GM or something to that effect, but this full time wrestling shit has got to stop. His matches suck, he looks like shit, and it always looks like he's about to die with every bump. Also, I hate when people say shit like "Oh man, Ric Flair can still go!". Well you know what? I bet there are tons of other people who retired on time that could 'still go' if they were idiotic enough to stick around, but see, THEY WEREN'T. He's STILL going over upcoming talent and really there's no use for it unless they're going to get those wins back ever.

Opinions?

Xero 02-13-2007 01:23 PM

Yeah, he's pretty shitty in the ring. He can still "go", but that "going" includes about thirty seconds of passable wrestling and 5-15 minutes sloppy shit.

Ludvig Borga > Ric Flair in his prime

Anybody Thrilla 02-13-2007 01:30 PM

Pinning with one finger is pretty cool, though.

thedamndest 02-13-2007 01:30 PM

No, I take that back.

Ludvig Borga is 2x > Ric Flair in his prime!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, oh this cold weather.

thedamndest 02-13-2007 01:34 PM

Ludvig Borga had the exact same match with Razor Ramon before the Ramon/IRS match at Royal Rumble 94. Michaels interferred with the bogus belt, nailed Razor, and Borga got the pin. His music played and everything, but the the ref saw the two belts, and restarted the match right as Ramon got the Razor's edge, and yadda yadda...I want this wrong righted. Borga has never been beaten in a sanctioned match for his rightful Intercontinental title. I want Jeff Hardy stripped, and the title flown on a private jet to Helsinki for Mr. Borga.

I think he can pull out some good matches every now and then if he's got the right opponent. Ric Flair vs. HHH in a cage at Taboo Tuesday last year was pretty good, IMO.

He just needs a good opponent.

His promos are still amazing.

Kane Knight 02-13-2007 01:45 PM

I think he's boring.

The One 02-13-2007 01:50 PM

FUCK
YOU
ALL

Flair is still one of the best thing in this industry.

McLegend 02-13-2007 01:55 PM

I love the current Ric Flair.

Just last week he cut a great promo which I loved., and if you give Ric Flair 10 or 15 mintues for a match its going to be good.

Anybody Thrilla 02-13-2007 02:30 PM

Yeah, but that promo was used to shit on somebody who's still an up and comer. Dunno if that's so great.

McLegend 02-13-2007 02:31 PM

How is that Ric Flair's fault?

Anybody Thrilla 02-13-2007 02:31 PM

How do you come to that conclusion, The One?

Anybody Thrilla 02-13-2007 02:32 PM

It's Ric Flair's fault because he should have retired 15 years ago.

Lock Jaw 02-13-2007 02:34 PM

I still like Flair... and would rather watch him than some of the "up and coming" young superstars. Even if most of his matches are getting tossed over his opponent's head onto his back.

But Ric Flair was told to do that, and also Carltio is apparently very lazy and unmotivated. So who better then one of the hardest working wrestlers ever to give that promo to motivate Carltio?


Maybe he should have retired 15 years ago, but he is still better then most of the young guys WWE currently has. For example Matt Striker and Chris Matters.

Because he still puts on better matches than practically anyone else.

Anybody Thrilla 02-13-2007 02:54 PM

Um, no he does not.

This is a ridiculous statement. Especially the Matt Striker part. You're entitled to your opinion I suppose, but that's flat out baffling to me.

The One 02-13-2007 02:55 PM

Um, yes he does.

Stickman 02-13-2007 02:56 PM

A manager heel Ric Flair would be awesome. But WWE doesn't do managers anymore.

The only people even remotely in Flair league (even by his today standards) is Michaels, HHH, Benoit, and maybe Punk (jury is still out on how good he actually is...)

Anybody Thrilla 02-13-2007 02:59 PM

How many fucking backdrops can you see until you're not impressed anymore?

The One 02-13-2007 03:00 PM

How many Stunners, how many People's Elbow, how many Tombstones, how many anything can you see...

Striker matches with CM Punk were horrible.

Striker can give you a decent promo, and he's a good heat getter. He's just not that good in the ring.

The One 02-13-2007 03:03 PM

Flair's worst day > Striker's best day

It's not like they spent the whole matches doing the same move over and over again.

Agree to disagree then, because I quite enjoyed his matches with Punk.

We can argee to disargee thats fine with me, because I love you.

Anybody Thrilla 02-13-2007 03:13 PM

It's all right, 'cause I'm saved by the bell.

Arnold HamNegger 02-13-2007 03:17 PM

Since WWE refuses to make new stars, Flair is destined to become the male version of "Mae Young", but with saggier tits.

Anybody Thrilla 02-13-2007 03:18 PM

I do find Flair entertaining when he's not in the ring...but when he's in there, not so much.

Rammsteinmad 02-13-2007 03:50 PM

I agree with Anybody Thrilla's original post. :y:

Just John 02-13-2007 03:55 PM

I havent got a strong opinion as Ric Flair currently is better than some of the trash we have on the roster, so I don't think I could take an extreme negative on it. I think we all know why he is there though.

Jura 02-13-2007 03:58 PM

Sometimes I think the legend is posting but I look and it's The One because their avatars are similar.

Shaved Monkey 02-13-2007 06:55 PM

He's become really nothing more than a chop machine.

Its really disappointing I've seen like 100x better out of Flair than that.

FourFifty 02-13-2007 08:02 PM

Ric Flair doesn't get the reactions that he gets for who was, and what he's done. He gets them for who he is, and what he does.

The One 02-13-2007 08:25 PM

LMAO! I just realised 450 changed his little quote under his name. I bet he bad mouthed someone under Tovo's protected wrestlers.
