Because I'm not a 14 year old ignorant loser who has never gotten the chance to actually watch a lot of Flair stuff from the time where he was actually used correctly? Or is it because I'm not someone who's only source of wrestling was the WWF therefor making biased opinions about Flair left and right just because of it?

Bret Hart, Shane Douglas, Hulk Hogan, Mick Foley, Scott Steiner, etc are just a few of the guys Ric Flair shook hands with to bury the hatchets and then years later (when he is sharing a locker room with none of them), he goes back on his word and mouths off like a 50 pence tart. Fuck what he did in the ring, as a man he is pathetic. The way he brown noses McMahon, HHH and Michaels makes me sick. He also backstabbed Konnan, Brian Pillman, Tom Zenk and half the WCW locker practically every night when he went out partying and made an arse out of himself. He has totally pissed on his own legacy and that's the real shame because his work in the ring it should have been indestructable. I only wish Scott Steiner was still in that locker room because Flair would be in a grave now and his boyfriends would be in hospital and that is just if Steiner got caught in a good mood!

You are the fucking man.

When I watch wrestling, I watch it for the wrestling and the interviews and such. I don't give a shit what they do behind the scenes. That's why I love Triple H. I respect Ric Flair greatly and love his work.

Ric Flair is many years older than Bret, and when Bret was in WCW, aside from the Benoit match, he could hardly put on a coherent match. Flair, on the other hand, while currently in the WWE is still putting on some solid matches.

Funny. I've found reasons to hate Triple H on and off screen.

The boredom factor is pretty high up there, and sum total would beat out his backstage politics.

But that's just me.

Okay firstly you are full of shit. If your posts were made up from opinions based on what you see on TV only then I could accept it but they aren't and you know it. I could easily go through the last few big threads and post examples but I'm sure you already know all this anyway so there is no point.

Bret Hart was on the active WCW roster from November 1997 to January 2000. Aside from the matches with Benoit, he gave Booker T arguably the match of his career to that point. Ditto for Goldberg. Sting had the best matches of the last 7 years of his career and he also had a great match with Ric Flair. Now in that same period, what did Flair do? As a matter of fact, what classic matches did Flair have in WCW after his WCW title win against Vader?

I can't think of one good match Flair has done since being back in the WWE. It's still the same ol' routine. Throw him in the corner, do that stupid flip in the corner, stand for a second, then fall flat on his face. Then for some idiotic reason, climb to the top rope, only to get slammed. Has he ever hit a move off the tope rope to even consider climbing up there to begin with? I know he is old, and it's admirable that he is still active, but if you look back ten years ago, it was still the same routine. Flair is nothing more than an average wrestler. People's mind's get skewed because they see he has been champ 16-times. If he was so legendary, than why has he only held the WWE title once? And that was only for a short period of time, before McMahon realized that he wasn't as good as he thought he was.

Exactly what I was going to say. He is way past his prime, and he should stick to managing because he would be one of the best to help get new talent over. He has dedicated his life to wrestling, and for that fact he deserves great respect, but for his bashing of other great wrestlers and for asskissing so much, he has lost a great deal of respect in my eyes.
