From my point of view, Ric Flair is highly overrated.  He may have had his time back in the day, but has hardly had a respectable match in over 20 years.  Fundamentally, he's a "routine man" in the ring.  For years now, he's been reduced to yelling "woooo", giving shops and flopping around the ring like a jelly fish.  

From an interview standpoint, he can be hilarious and pretty entertaining, but there seems to be an aura of mystique that has purposely been built regarding Flair's career, that I don't get.  Recently, Flair has come across like a bitter man, trashing esteemed colleagues in the business, as a means to prop himself up.  If he is so secure in what he has accomplished in his career, why the need to belittle other legends?  Ok Ric, we get it already.  You went 60 minutes with Bruiser Bordy, Harley Race, ......Now retire already.

HOLY SHIT!!

Yet, Flair couldn't draw for shit when he arrived in the WWF in the early 90's.  So much so, that Vince took the strap off him shortly after he got the belt, and a short time later Flair went back to WCW.  Flair, for all of his alleged talent as a worker, had no clue about ring phsycology.  He'd work over an ankle for ten minutes, to suddenly stall the match with a rear chin lock.  For years, Flair was a big fish in the little pond called NWA/WCW.  He wrestled in front of empty seats, while the guys from up north sold out MSG.  Woooooo!

i gota say this guy...

Is there really any argument here? Cena, Luger, Rude all looked good but when I think "jacked" I think of this guy...

Not only was the jacked out of this world, he was also one of the fastest and strongest athletes in pro wrestling history. 2 Time All American NCAA wrestler at Michigan State, definite badass on the street. Show and go.

Steiner had huge arms way prior to the introduction of synthol.  Then around 1998, he really blew up overall.
