From the tone and content of the majority of your posts, I take it you are a wrestling fan.. that being said, the Hulkster would own Ric Flair.

I respect Flair but I don't think he is a good wrestler anymore. When he gets pedigreeded, he makes it look so bad. when other people get pedigreeded they at least make it look like they get dropped on their head.the new man is Shelton Benjamin and Cena. But The Rock is the man to be with.

hulk couldn't work his way out of a paper bag. Flair was one of the best workers of all time, therefore Flair>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Hogan

Lol.....the Hulkster would own the Nature Boy??? Lol....I take it from the content of this post that you do not or have never even watched wrestling..if you HONESTLY think Hogan is even in the same league as Flair. Hogan is a good character...but Flair is one million times better in every single way. Get serious.

A. Flair is still a good wrestler, I think. In him prime...no, but he's better than most others (and WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY better than John "I only have four moves" Cena)...B. The man is 57 years old. God forbid he doesn't sell one particular move to your liking..lol. C. Shelton Benjamin is good. No one, however, and I mean no one, is even CLOSE to being as good as Ric Flair was...the only people who have even come close are Bret Hart and Chris Benoit..though neither of them are quite as good.

did u really expect a bunch of smart fans to comment on this. I almost never make wrestling threads because there are so many marks that its almost never worth my time to talk about it on anything but a wrestling site(and even then there are some really dumb posters on wrestling sites)

Lol..of course not. I just started the thread out of boredom and just to be dumb. Doesn't mean I can't speak the truth though..lol.

QFMFTIn his prime, Flair could carry a toaster to a five star classic.

There have been more than just those two. Ricky Steamboat was a hell of a worker, for one, and in terms of pure wrestling ability I would say Owen had the edge on Bret.Also, if not for his lack of crowd control (or rather, the standard American wrestling fan's lack of appreciation for skill), I would put Dean Malenko high on the list of best American wrestlers in the past 20 years.

Owen was good...but I liked Bret a hell of a lot more. I understand that Bret's style may not appeal as much to some as to others, but to me, he's one of the very best.. .Also, yeah, Steamboat was an incredible worker, but I don't recall him ever being a good heel....that takes away some points in my opinion.....You are also very right about Malenko. Incredibly underrated. Also a shout-out to Randy Savage back in the 80s....I think he is pretty underrated as well...kinda crappy in the 90s maybe..but was good I think.

He might not be the best wrestler, but he still has the most charisma out of all the no personality meatheads they have on there. MEAN ....... WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.... JEAN

The amazing thing to me is when you guys talk about the all-time great wrestlers, no one has mentioned Shawn Michaels. If anyone comes close to Flair, it's him. Oh and Bret Hart was the most over-rated wrestler of all time.

Don't get me wrong, I love Bret. I just enjoyed Owen's work a little bit more.Steamboat may not have played the heel, but he did play the face to perfection. Flair/Steamboat in any 80's NWA match showcased two men at the absolute pinnacle of the sport, bar none. If were giving shout outs to heel Ricks, though, then how about Rick Rude? Not the greatest worker ever, but he was overflowing with charisma and will always be a personal favorite of mine.

Shawn Michaels sucks. Period.

I know you weren't dissing Bret, I was just saying that I do think that his style may not have appealed to some others as much as it does to me...for example the hobo who called him the most overrated wrestler a few posts up.Steamboat was an incredible face, no doubt, I just think being a heel requires so much more....he is one of the all-time greats, no doubt. I just think Flair is in an entire league of his own....Rick Rude owns. Also a shout-out to Curt Henning. I loved that guy...too bad Vince never gave him a run as World Champion. Would have loved to have seen those two have World Title runs....oh, but Hulk Hogan lifted Andre the Giant one time..so I guess all that was pushed aside.

shawn was excellent, but he wasn't in the same league as either bret or flair. Shawn was nototrious for messing up angles and not doing jobs. Shawn didn't have a long drawing peak

He wasn't on top of the mountain for long, but he's still one of the biggest draws on Raw. I read somewhere his merch sales are only second to Cena's on Raw. Back in his prime, Shawn was a troublemaker, but now it's a different story, he's one of the most respected people in the locker room.

Him being one of the "biggest draws" for a while has nothing to do with how good he was. Yeah, a lot of teenage girls and boys liked him. Doesn't matter. He was okay, but not that good. Plus, his constant refusal to job clean to anyone whatsoever makes him a pretty big douchebag.....anyone that can't/won't job clean just isn't that good. That's why Hogan is just decent...Shawn the same....that's why guys like Bret and Flair and Benoit are so good. They are good because of the quality of their matches..not because they always won. Hogan and Michaels had to always come out of top to soothe their egos and to get over....Flair got over simply because his matches themselves were the sh*t. Triple H, though not nearly as good as Flair and others, gets some props for that too...as he's jobbed clean a lot of times...even at Wrestlemania, and is still over pretty good.

Arn Anderson was always one of my favorites when it came to the technical side of wrestling. He could sell just about anything. I would also rank Nikolai Volkof pretty high up there as well.

I have no idea how I forgot The Enforcer. Definitely one of the best.How about some of the all time great tag teams? I'd have to say the Midnight Express, the Rock N Roll Express, and Terry Gordy/Steve Williams.

I was always a fan of the Legion of Doom...Hart Foundation....Demolition...I don't know if any of those were as good of workers as those above...but I liked them.

Not that I am gonna disagree, because Flair is better than Hogan, but am I the only one who gets tired of seeing Flair in a ring these days. I hate his little faceflop he does after he gets hit with some move where he wanders around looking drunk for a second and drops on his face. He also gets annoying when he is on the mic, it seems like he gets going so fast he forgets what he was gonna say. I think he should hang it up.
