What do you think of Ric Flair? I always thought he was an overratted loser.

I never had the chance to see much NWA/WCW when Flair was in his prime. From what I saw, he was talented, but he never struck me as being credible as a tough guy. Hogan and Andre were big guys, Austin was a psycho. Why would I fear a guy like Flair?

To be fair, I have been checking Ebay lately for soem Flair comp tapes because I'm curious to see what all the fuss is/was about.

Sheesh and you think Hogan was a great wrestler. Here's every Hogan match: Pose, Hand To Ear, Lock Up, Back Shot Back Shot, Opponent Leaves Ring, Hand To Ear, Eye Gouge, Hogan Down, Comeback, Shake For Crowd, Punch to Head, Repeat, Leg Drop, Match Over, Talk To Mean Gene.

Flair kept heat going for 3 decades. Flair was generating major heat when Hogan was still playing in a band. And Flair could literally work for 60 minutes.

Flair needs to spend less time in the tanning booth. Also, I really do not need to see his sagging man boobs every week.

I am sure there have been better wrestlers than Flair, but he was the best showman I ever saw (of course it has been years since I watched wrestling).
