I think it was about 20+ years ago I read in a magazine that a champ once left his belt at an arena, and a janitor found & returned it.
I want to say it was Flair, but that doesn't sound right.

Who the hell was that?
I figure if it was anyone it would be Flair. With all his post match partying and so forth. He probably got hammered and forgot it, lol...

LOL, I saw that clip not too long ago and it had me rolling.  Younger guys just have no idea how much better Flair was than EVERYBODY else who has ever picked up the mic.   It was off the cuff, no team of writers to help him out, and he had to use so many hidden meaning to things to protect the kids...

I used to get a kick out of when he would come out and sing some random song......"Sky rockets in flight, afternoon delight....."  Also, "Lord, it's hard to be humble when you're perfect in every way...."

I have both the Horsemen dvd and the Flair dvd and I could litterally watch them over and over. I love the 1980's Flair promo's.

I posted this vid on another thread. Unfortunately, it's not on youtube, anymore.

But, if you want to pick a signature promo, this is as good as it gets:

Love that one, Tim.....so vintage Flair.  He always gave his interviews that edge of realism....and was soooo good at putting over whoever he was working with at the time.

I've gotta agree with a lot of Slick Ric's views here...
He hits the nail on the head more than once.

I agree with him on pretty much all of it. Except about what he says about the Immortal One. "Hulk Hogan couldn't do that" Flair, Perfect, and Bobby are my top three.


Yeah, what was that in regards to?
I couldn't catch it on the clip.
Ric & Landsberg were talking over eachother for a second, and then all I could make out was, "Bret Hart couldn't do that. Hogan couldn't do it. Piper could."

I never saw Flair once until he came to the Federation. But I knew who he was from magazines and from people in school who used to watch that other wrestling organization. But this interview. When Flair walked out that day and got in Hulksters face. That was one of the biggest events in my life when that happened. "Don't be ashamed of those butterflies you have rumbling in your stomach right now!" Great stuff!
You have no idea what you missed. Flair was BETTER in the NWA.

"When you talk about the World Heavyweight Championship, you are talking about men like Thesz, Rogers, Race, Funk, Rhodes, and the man you are looking at right now RIC FLAIR!  Men who have lived their lives at being the best at what they do in professional wrestling and that is becoming #1, becoming the world heavyweight champion.  And Ricky Morton you think you are in the same class as these men?  Well lemme tell you something pal, WHOOOO! you just made the biggest mistake of your life.  You got a better chance of trying to cross I75, I85 and 285 while wearing a blind fold than you do of getting this title off the Nature Boy.  NWA World Heavy Title.  Not for teenyboppers.  And now... you got to walk that aisle.  You got to step in that ring.  You got to look across and see the Nature Boy standing there and know that I am going to Make You Sweat!  haha!  I am going to Make You Bleed.  hahaha!  And by God *WHOOOO* Ricky Morton I am going to make you PAY! THE! PRICE! for getting in the ring the Nature Boy.  I'm Ric Flair pal *WHHOOO* custom made from head to toe.  Diamonds are forever and so is Ric Flair.  WHHHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOO!!!"
