Ric Flair is the second greatest professional wrestler of all time. (The first being Savage, IMO) Bret is probably in my top 15, but not in my top 5 like alot of guys on here. But, then again, I'm just one of those guys that's more entertained by "flashy" guys that are excellent on the mic. I guess Bret isn't in my top 10 or top 5 the same reason Benoit isn't. Dunno.
I do think Bret's mic skills are often undersold though. He wasn't a natural on the stick, but his promos just seemed very genuine and honest. You still wanted to hear what the guy had to say.
Like I said though, Flair is the 2nd greatest of all time and his style was just right up my alley. I voted Flair. Wish he would stop destroying his own legacy though.
