Ric Flair

Spoiler for big image:

In the 1980s Hulk Hogan was leading the WWF into national success. The NWA struggled to survive in this new climate. Yet the biggest name in professional wrestling was still selling out arenas in the NWA. Ric Flair.

Jim Crockett Promotions, Ric Flair's main territory, would get bought up and rebranded by Ted Turner into WCW. In 1991 Ric Flair would finally get sick of being mistreated by the President of WCW Jim Herd. He'd jump ship to WWF.

After leaving WWF in 1993 Flair would go back to WCW. He would help bring Hulk Hogan over to WCW as well. Being one of the largest draws for WCW he would bring in large viewership helping kick off the Monday Night Wars.

Ric Flair was recognized as having the most world title wins, 16, till recently tied by John Cena. Ric Flair inspired Steve Austin, Shawn Michaels, Jericho, and so on. The man is indirectly responsible for the monday night wars and was one of the greatest performers of all time.

Ric Flair's "retirement" match was the perfect cap on his career. Ended at Wrestlemania against Shawn Michaels in a classic five star match that would bring tears to any man's eyes.

WOOOO!
