J.T. Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 Steamboat / Flair is probably my favorite feud of all time and Flair has always maintained that Steamboat is one of the best workers he's ever been in the ring with. I love the shoot interview with DM where Flair says that Steamboat could pretty much do or learn anything, but kept his moveset tight as not to overdo it. "If you asked Steamboat to learn how to do a moonsault, he'd do it.. BUT IT WASN'T REQUIRED BACK THEN~!" That is a powerful statement from Flair and I have always been a proponent of the don't do shit just because it looks cool school of pro wrasslin workrate. Grainy though it may be, I love watching the 70's footage from the NWA house shows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jingus Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 I see there's been two Flair matches posted. IT AIN'T ENOUGH. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BZ8Zz_X2W6Q Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 I tried to find the original footage of Steamer stripping Flair (before they redid it) to no avail; anybody else wanna try? It was definitely online before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimLivingston Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 NO! NOT RICK STEAMBOAT! Forever entrenched in my mind. Final Conflict has somehow gotten under discussed. More people need to see it. Absolutely insane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jingus Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 Also, no Wrestlemania 3? Kinda surprised nobody else posted that.

Brian Fowler Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 Seriously, there have been maybe five times ever a mystery partner wasn't a disappointment, and Steamboat is two of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cool arrow Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 WCW: Perhaps the worst wrestling theme song ever. Yeah, that one's pretty stinky. Still better than X-Factor's, though. Anyway... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
