Well then why didn't Flair pick Arn, or Bret pick one of his family members in the business?

I think it transcendes "closeness" and goes to a professional level. Flair inducting Austin makes a fuck load of sense for both of them. I agree that JR is probably the top contender. That was never argued. You implied that Flair made no sense. That's untrue.
Please don't shift the argument to JR making "more sense" when it began as Flair making no sense.

The fact of the matter is he makes more sense than anyone else besides maybe Bret, who probably isn't going to be there. It's also a retread of what they already did with Bret.
Flair, in a way, makes more sense than JR because of who he is. I highly doubt JR would feel slighted by this
