Did you like Ric Flair's first WWF run?

the ending to Mania 8 is my fav close of a show of all-time. I'll never forget the Warrior's music hitting and him flying down to the ring to save Hogan. That was pretty much the last good Warrior moment if you were a Warrior fan.

Anyway, I don't think there has ever been a definite reason as to why Hogan/Flair never went down.

I've read the house show numbers were horrible for the one's they've main evented, I've read Sid had it in his contract that he was to main event Mania, I've read Hogan didn't want to job.

I bet Hogan bitched at the thought of jobbing because Flair was not a WWF guy and he probably got in Vince's ear as to why the WWF would put him over thier biggest star of the past 8 years.
