He has been in the wrestling business for over four decades, Accumulated more World Titles than anyone in history at sixteen, Plus many more titles to his name. Flair's talent is judged only by his number of world titles.A true wrestler, Is judged by the quality of His or Her's Matches, And Ric is one of the worst.
The worst?....Yes for many reasons. One being his degradation of real wrestlers. If you watch him, He oversells to a point where he is taking the piss.... Not forgetting the Flop... Its so silly that even in a world of fantasy and storytelling, It looks stupid and ridiculous. Their are wrestlers who wrestle their hearts out, Trying to make their performance look as real as possible for Flair to do the Flop and throw away all of the sense, Hard work and effort out of the window.Bret Hart, perhaps the greatest of all time, Has said that all of Ric Flairs matches were all the same, and its true.If you watch carefully, No matter who he has in the ring with him, He sticks to the same old routine every single match. You can bet you will see him do the following things. One being the climb to the top rope only to be thrown off......Every time.
The Flop will make an appearance or too. The flip over the top rope to the apron, which he botched most of the time. Then the Knife edged chops.They filled all of his matches, It was repetitive and constant in every match. It actually filled at least half of the matches he was in. The Bloodied forehead, He would always walk in blonde and then almost always walk out red. His blading was done to a point where it wasn't even necessary. He did it to make his matches seem hard hitting and good, But it made him look even more pathetic.
Then of course his Overselling. The overselling is a staple of the Ric Flair cloth, And its something he is proud of. He claims t hat he makes everyone around him look good, and that he's the best wrestler ever, But all it does is humiliate both himself and all those around him. If you deduct the world titles and the accolades, He is nothing more than a comedy act that only gets by due to the laughs and stupidity of his performances. I Truly believe that Ric Flair was not worthy of all of his titles and accolades, and he is not as good as they and he claims.
