To Be the Man by Ric Fliehr

I'm pretty much though it, I got about a chapter left. It is a pretty good read. I've heard some people say all he does in that book is bash Foley and Bret Hart, this is untrue. He also bashes Vince Russo, Eric Bischoff, Shane Douglas, and Hulk Hogan. I guess people forget about Flair bashing them because lots of smarks and mark kind of already hate those dudes. But then you also have to remeber Flair has been dicked around more than a lot of workers have and has been misjudge on a number of occasions, so it is no suprise that he takes what Foley and Hart said about him in their books so personally.

It is also over looked that Flair has some pretty nice things to say about a ton of guys from legends like Harley Race, Wahoo, Piper, and Steamboat to newer guy like HHH, Angle, and Jericho. I'm pretty sure he say more positive stuff about other workers than negative stuff. Hell he even says that Russo isn't completely horrible and neither is/was Dusty Rhodes.

All in all, it seems like more of a cautionary tale than anything. Flair is basically saying, "Hey all I tried to do is go out there night after night to preform for the fans and give it my all only to get burned repeatedly by the business I help build."
