The WWE gave him a grand sendoff....he then jumped ship to TNA where as a man in 60s with leathery, Sharpei-like skin still razors his forehead in front of bingo hall crowds.

I dunno if you can really decline from being a pro wrestler, it's not a sharp decline if there is one

Nearly all of these guys lived fucked up lives and are in financial and personal ruin after their "retirements" (most of them seem to keep working forever until they die an early death).

I don't think he will have a pair of wrestling trunks to sell on ebay in a  couple years .... Shit , i don't think he even owns a pair of wrestling trunks, most are prob hand me downs or donated to him

I was wrong.  His 4th wife assaulted him and had charges of stalking and ended up in jail, which he is still with her.

Crazy as the F###. 

Post when he has a complete breakdown.

They should be looking at the old-timers and saying, "damn, if it wasn't for them, I would still be working the front desk at Golds Venice...."

A lot of the stuff mentioned is exaggerated and in fact false.  Ric Flair may live high on the hog but his net worth is still about 5 million dollars.  Most people forget that Flair makes a lot of money from representing a number of companies.  But he wrestles for the same reasons that Hogan does and that's because the love the fans and the spotlight to the point where they would die for their entertainment


Even if he didn't have any money, people love Ric Flair so much that they wouldn't allow him to end up on the street.

Mickey Mantle one of Five  greatest baseball players to ever live was broke, until he realized people would pay hundreds for his autograph... I would shell out a few bills for a signed rick flair rob ... and not the one he uses in the shower either
