While I agree Savage is better than remembered for, and quickly becoming a forgotten legend, I don't neccesairly agree with that.

I do however feel that for many reasons, Savages actual in ring work in his prime is overshadowed and downplayed, while Flairs is played up. Thats mainly because of a lot of things that change fan perception, as well as their respective relationships with the company that owns both their legacies and is the only one who can promote it to the world...the WWE.

At the end of the day, on a personal level, Savage probably entertained me more. But as a fan I can't say that Savage is > Flair. Thats rash.
I do however feel that Flairs legacy is played up and Savages is severely downplayed.
