People don’t realise that in the UK and Germany the fans are completely different to the United states and Canada. We appreciate the art form of wrestling and the technical side of wrestling and that’s why Bret Hart was loved (and still is) Flair is and will always be one of the all time greats and we love the guy and he’s still recognised today as one of the greatest to ever lace up a pair of boots. He could walk down any street anywhere in the UK tomorrow and people would know who he is and would “woooo” all night long !
@Wolfgang von lichtenstein I'm Australian and haven't met an awful lot of wrestling fans here. At least not in the days following the attitude era and Monday night wars. I really don't know what we prefer as a demographic compared with the states or Europe. I know what I prefer. When I was a kid it was all about the stories and personalities and the match itself was secondary. Since I've got older I've learned to live the psychology and structure of a good match, the skillset of various technical greats etc. I guess I like a bit of it all.
Flair was old by his first WWF run....and yes, his style of wrestling was a throwback to the 70s, specifically Harley Race. He never evolved passed that.

It’s easy to trash a guy who was pure entertainment and blew ratings through the roof weather he had the best wrestling skills or not Warrior was a big time Feature attraction sounds like a lot of SERIOUS WARRIOR HATERS ,much respect to the Icon Wrestler Ric Flair
What you are talking about - Ultimate Warrior left right before the Survivor Series 1992!! He surley did not wrestle Ric Flair in 1993!! Maybe you are talking about a time frame after Summer Slam 92, as Ric Flair won back the belt from Randy Savage... To Flair Saw you wrestle early 1993 Bret Hart for the title in Mannheim, Germany! Awesome Match... a friend of mine says till today - "best Match ever"!!
I'm telling you Ric you ARE the luckiest SOB alive. At least in pro wrestling you are. I can't believe what you've gone through physically and emotionally and your STILL on top of your game. God must have a purpose for you. The "godfather" of this business.
Don't forget undertaker. Undertaker wrestled all the way through while other wrestlers retired then came back. So many great wrestlers. From 1980 to 2010. The 30 short years the entertainment the wrestlers brought the people is a once in a millennia. We will probably never witness anything like it again.
Where's he pulling these dates from? Because I thought it was RR 92', (Flair won & was in for like an hour) I know jim was NOT with the company that year unless it was dark matches. 93', Idk if flair was there that year. Maybe a couple months tops.
Yeah, but warrior had a short shelf-life, whereas Flair had longevity. Warrior's style and personality got over, and fast, but it was always limiting, especially adding in him in the backstage.
If that was true, then his bosses would’ve put the belt on him for more than one year out of his whole career. He got the belt wrestlemania six, and had it taken off him by slaughter at the Royal rumble and was never on top of the card again.. so he hasn’t even held a world title for 12 months in his whole life !! This might be the dumbest comment in the history of the Internet wrestling community and that’s saying something Ric flair carried 😢the N.W.A. on his back sold out arenas all over America before warrior even got started. Then when warrior did get going, he was the top guy and WCW in flair went to WWF one a world title and went back to WCW and did a program with Hogan! Warrior was just like Goldberg as soon as they stopped, booking him as impervious and invincible he lost his appeal. Seriously bro, I can’t believe how dumb your comment was 😂 you should be embarrassed!!
@@JaxTheGat only red necks hold flair in this high regard. Seriously, wrestling was on fire when warrior got to the top. Flair never, ever "made it" in the big time. Only big down south where families interbred with each other. He flopped when he finally made it to New York. He tried and tried to compete but he flopped so bad that freaking Bret hart was more over than him. Some how it's been drilled into simpletons minds that Flair was on the level with bruno, hogan, Austin, rocky. He was never on their level, he was popular in the Carolinas, that's it. When wrestling went national he was a relic. A dinosaur.
@@sleazyfellow first of all, I’m not a redneck I live in a capital city in a different country. Second of all, it’s not that I hold flare in such high regard. I just know in comparison to the ultimate Warrior he sits much higher!! You can say all the bullshit that you want, but at the end of the day he had two IC title runs and one world title where the promoter realised he made a mistake and gave it back to the guy. He took it from in the first place. He went back to a guy he thought was getting over the hill because Warrior was such a disappointment. Then you’ve got the stop-start comebacks and then you’ve got his WCW run. That doesn’t even match up to anybody else in the top 30, mch less Flair. I look at Ric flair objectively. You’re the one Fan-boying a guy that barely got on the card at wrestlemania four, won his first world title at wrestlemania six in 90 and was gone by 91. He came back to be part of the worst main event in wrestlemania history.(WM8) Had a ridiculous program with Papa Shango didn’t finish his program with Jake, Roberts. Then he came back in 96 for what was a miserable run by any measure. And then he went to WCW, which was probably the worst signing for the money spent through that whole “gravy train era” then he never did anything again. Didn’t do anything in wrestling relevant until the day before he died. (Sadly) I don’t think Ric flair is as good as Bret Hart, Shawn Michaels , Randy Savage Y2J, Angle or the Undertaker. But he’s achievements are undeniable!! Territories all over America used beg to get The nature boy defending his title in their territory!! You’re obviously a deluded fanboy that puts steroid use and incoherent promos ahead of talent in the ring and Charisma, on the mike🎤 You’re so stupid that you don’t even see that wrestling was on fire when Warrior was climbing to the top, but when he got there… they started losing money almost immediately . Which is why Vinny Mac went back to hogan. Thats checkmate ♟️ numb 🥜’s At the end of the day, he’s one as many world titles as Jack swagger and Jinder Mahal. Flair got more opponents over in one year then warrior did in his whole career!! So.. Run along dip 💩 👋
Flair is the goat and I'm a Michigan guy, but he's gotta let go of these manditory statements about NFL guys he wants to stay cool with. Brady has declined dramatically this year. The teams record, his statistics and play have showed that. What he's done clearly makes him the greatest of all time and it's not even debatable anymore, but this talk about Brady and Rodgers playing great is either incredible bias or just flair flat out lying to stay in good grace. I'm also a Detroit guy. What happened when Rodgers got beat on his home field to go to the playoffs in the last game of the year? No disrespect, but c'mon man everyone listening knows that's senile.
The Ultimate Warrior had no business in a ring. He couldn't wrestle, was out of breath from running into the ring. The show was over as soon as the bell rang. Goldberg was even worse!
2,600 fans that paid to get in was astronomical compared to a normal WCW/NWA show. Heck if you did a study you would see a lot of WWF shows were 4 digit crowds. Go back to the early 80s and there were Andre/Hogan matches that took place in front of 4 digit crowds. By the way, it was 1992, not 1993 you misinformation guru.
Wrestling is the most racist sport in the country! 80 years in the business and multiple companies have never produced a tier 1 black champion on the same level as Hogan, Stonecold, Undertaker, HBK, HHH, Rick Flair, Sting to name a few. Please don't insult African Americans and claim the Rock, the man is Samoan, and has the same amount of black in his genes as Elon Musk! It's an openly racist sport and it's always sad to see black fans cheering on these racist fools. The black man is a superior athlete in all sports except wrestling, let that sink in!
Nothing dumb about it. I had zero interest. As a canadian i grew up with dynamite, davey boy, bret, and later owen, benoit, jushin thunder lager, hiro hase, pilllman and many others. Found flair’s absolutely repetitive, boring, mundane and HOKEY CHEESY spots very overrated. Now add in the useless warrior who I always hated (being a teen/adult) by his time, and recognized as a terrible wrestler… nope… ZERO interest. I’d rather have watched say… steamboat vs any jobber on earth than flair/warrior.
Alot of people walked away from wrestling when the law suit happen with hogan and vince, alot of people lost hope for it and for a while people thought it was real. There was a HUGE drought in wrestling around that time.
@@datacipheryeh , let’s be honest. Flair and warrior? No thanks. Infact I rarely watched flair. Very boring very limited skills. Best thing about ric flair is his music and his “wooooo”. That’s that.
@@gojirajenkins8528Actually it was Warrior/Ultimate Warrior the character, not Jim Hellwig the person. Warrior always spoke in his Warrior persona about all matters concerning wrestling.
So why listen? I do not understand why people will watch or listen and then comment like this. Don't stick around long enough to bother commenting. I don't come to Flair for the big, grand storytelling. He has a calm and simple style that works for me, and it is a nice contrast from his in-ring personality.
*The reason he didn't drop the belt to Warrior was because by October it had become known that Warrior was buy steroids from a bent doctor in the UK, so any plan to have him take the belt from Flair wad nixed (that was also one of the reasons McMahon went with Bret, because he wasn't an obvious steroid guy)*

Ric Flair probably didn't do as much steroids as other wrestlers but he balanced it out with drugs and alchohol

Flair stayed away from the pills That shit will kill you quick
"Wife's never travelled with me"
"Well thats never stopped you"

Wrong Year. It was 1992.

Flair's style wasn't over for the average northern WWF fan.
A lot of WWF fans at the time had no clue who he even was. Vince did a great job of making their wrestling the only wrestling they knew.
Flair was old by his first WWF run....and yes, his style of wrestling was a throwback to the 70s, specifically Harley Race. He never evolved passed that.
Flair style would have sold in the northeast.the same as Billy Superstar Graham sold back in the day
@@sleazyfellow Yeah he did he got a good match out of Brock Lesnar on RAW, Flair was The Man.
Northern marks weren't exposed to great southern style rasslin' back then.
Vince sneered at southern wrestling, had a great disdain for that style.
Warrior left WWE in late 1992. Flair left WWE like a week and a half into 1993. Crack the whip on your staff there Podfather.

Yes
Who?
I wouldn't say he's on top of his game. He is a legend and always will be, but he is waaaay past his prime. It's silly to pretend he's not.
What a mark...shutup
He was honest. Didn’t blame the warrior
Flair has got to be the most durable wrestler that's ever lived.
Lawler ain't too bad either
Don't forget undertaker. Undertaker wrestled all the way through while other wrestlers retired then came back. So many great wrestlers. From 1980 to 2010. The 30 short years the entertainment the wrestlers brought the people is a once in a millennia. We will probably never witness anything like it again.
Flair working with warrior in '93.
I found Ric's Hall of Fame ring in the local pawn shop WOOOOO.
1992 not 1993
This is the second time I've seen a 1993 date incorrectly quoted on this channel.
Yeesh, get the timeline right guys, does Conrad know you can edit this after you post it?
Speak Brotha
Surprised sting didn't try to get him to come to wcw in 1993 after he left wwf or he didn't join forces with savage and Hogan and sting in 95
I love flair but ioved the warrior too his chracter his look abd entrance
If warrior was in 93 maybe The WWF would of been better
Feuds with Bret Hart
Lex Luger
Undertaker
HBK
Where's he pulling these dates from? Because I thought it was RR 92', (Flair won & was in for like an hour) I know jim was NOT with the company that year unless it was dark matches. 93', Idk if flair was there that year. Maybe a couple months tops.
He was. He did win the Rumble in '92. It's clearly a mistake and meant to be '93.
Is Warrior wearing a mask on the thumbnail?
Jim looks a bit like Psychosis.
Everything you MAKES SENSE Ric. The concepts are not difficult to grasp.
Wooooooooo 1993 wait a minute ?
Lou Thez,did Ric wrestle?
He didn't really say anything about working with the Warrior.
Is this match on ytube?
Evans caught 3 TD'S though....well now.
Hold your nose closed and blow making your ears stop up….. it’s an equilibrium reset!
Its late 92 not 93
You did not draw at the top of wwf one reason you had the same match over and over great promo in the ring crap
Its not difficult to get the year correct when mentioning past matches.......
*92
Warrior made more money than flair, and drew more....FACTS.
Yeah, but warrior had a short shelf-life, whereas Flair had longevity. Warrior's style and personality got over, and fast, but it was always limiting, especially adding in him in the backstage.
Not even remotely true.
