Cobra Commander Posted July 28 Share Posted July 28 2 hours ago, Pete said: obviously that photo was before Ric Flair transformed from being Walter to being Gunther a bit of a shame that Ric Flair's freak of nature traits will sorta fly under the radar compared to stuff like him sticking around until he looked out of shape, waving his dick like a helicopter, and the such. Getting any career after the plane crash was pretty extraordinary, much less how long it went and his condition for a lot of it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crockett/WCW never failed to step on their own dicks 9 times out of 10. Awesome, one of my all time fav shows to rewatch. Love the crowd pop for thinking Luger won (and also Sting/Nikita's almost win). Huge fan of all of the Luger/Flair series. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't he say he wanted to be Ricky Rhodes and be the 3rd Texas Outlaw with Dusty and Dick Murdock? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After I finish my 80s/early 90s WWF chronological watchthrough, I'm going to do Crockett/WCW. I'm most looking forward to the 88 - 90 Bashes for personal nostalgia reasons as I was at those shows. I was also at Bash 91 but we don't talk about that. Edited July 29 by Technico Support 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MY TAKESHITA 550 POUNDS!" I've for sure had something like that for brunch of a weekend after having too much to drink the night before. And a bloody mary before the food came. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, he wanted to be called "Ramblin' Ricky Rhodes". It's funny because I remember Dusty related that story in a shoot interview in the early 2000s and people (myself included) kinda wrote it off as Dusty just putting himself over and exaggerating. Then Flair actually confirmed it in his book and in other interviews. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supremebve Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 4 hours ago, Wee Bey said: Wait, people think that Scorpio was graceful? Scorpio was cool as fuck, innovative, but every one of his high spots looked like he was about half an inch from blowing out both his knees and killing his opponent. He didn't give off out of control and dangerous like Sabu, but I don't know why people were signing up to take his 450 or that moonsault legdrop thing. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curt McGirt Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 If anyone's wondering why there is a Fat Flair, it's because he was hanging out with Ken Patera who would eat nothing but cheeseburgers. He thought "if he can do that and look like that I can" but it just ended up in him looking like that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
