Of course, but who hasn't.? Flair is a decrepit old man still trying to pay off his debts and prostitiuting himself for money to get his kids out of their own problems.

And Bret is a decrepit old man sitting at home allowing bitterness and spite to feed on his soul. How this has any bearing on their status in wrestling is beyond me.

Bret was the man when he was at the top.

So he DIDN'T get shuffled back down into the midcard when Hogan returned? He DIDN'T engage in non ME feuds with Lawler and Michaels while Luger challenged Yokozuna? He DIDN'T have his big-ass crescendo of a cage match with Owen knocked out of a SummerSlam ME slot in favore of the Undertaker vs his impostor? He DIDN'T stand by and watch for the better part of a year while Diesel held the title?

And he was at the top of the biggest wrestling company in the world for a longer time than Flair.

Pretty weak argument seeing as how Flair was IN said company for barely two years back then.
Quote:
He got signed to the company because Vince was raiding everyone. Not only that, but Bret had the talent in the ring to get into the wwf no matter who was his father and his lineage. Pretty stupid assumption there dude.
Either way, lineage only goes so far, Bret worked his way to the top.

Watch Bret's DVD some time and count how many times he admits he was ready to quit until he was given a better spot. Yeah, he worked and all, but if his family wasn't who they were, who knows if he would ever have been noticed.
Good God, look at him back then.

Flair seems lost. What he says doesnt even make sense anyways. He's faced off with old timers, big deal. So has Bret. In fact, Funk chose Bret for his retirement match due to his high respect for him, who he called the best in the business for that time.

Clearly we have different measuring sticks for greatness, if you have to bring in Funk as your star witness.
