In my opinion, the best thing for him to do if he quits WWE is to just hang up the boots. He could do some great work as an authority figure for an promotion or as a manager for some up-and-coming star on the indy scene (imagine the rub he could give to some guys who aren't good on the stick but can back it up in the ring) and if there's a wrestling convention, I imagine the promoters would be paying good money to get Flair to appear. There's a lot of opportunities for a legend like him and he wouldn't have to kill himself in the ring to earn a buck.
Ah yes, that was the reason. I guess I just got caught up in the mental picture of Flair's glory days. I guess that avenue for Flair is written off.

I think what might be going on, is that Ric Flair needs to wrestle, but as he is way past his prime, the WWE uses him as a special attraction lower on the card, but Flair feels that if he is a full-time wrestler, he should be treated as he always was when he was a full-time wrestler. Jobbing to Rico is for part-time wrestler Ric Flair. Full-time wrestler Ric Flair probably wants another World Title.
