Despite the truthful and hilarious "You can't wrestle" chants coming from the crowd, the Great Khali and the Big Show is something that I want to see.

Well said Slash, but unfortunately this will also lead to another buildup story. It's obvious Batista is gonna go after HBK.

Seems like it but I guess Taker and McMahon came out after the show went off the air. But I understand why they didn't show him on TV so that Taker wouldn't have to nationally break kayfabe. Hell, Even Festus stayed in character during the Flair tribute.

But WE ALL know we'll still see Flair on TV.

Uh..yea I thought the same thing with Batista, but it's not going to make a bit a sense, but whatever.

Man... hearing that four horsemen theme took me many years back. Was missing Steve McMichael but that's ok. It was a good long run - he can rest his aching body now.

I was just rather surprised to see Kane out there applauding and near-crying. Not saying it was a bad move, just seemed odd.

And I almost cried, but I just couldn't really bring out the tears. Don't get me wrong, much like all of you, I loved Flair, even when he was heeling it up with Evolution 5 years ago. I'd have to say my favorite Flair match will always be the 1992 Royal Rumble, where he lasted over 62 minutes to win it all.

Spoiler:

Is this still on?! *shocked look* okay...I guess it is.


Face HHH is so much more entertaining than Heel HHH.

Spoiler:

I think that McMahon should have let the roster break Kayfabe for the Flair thing...I would have loved to see Taker come out and show is appreciation.

So here is an article about the end-of-wrestlemania events. I won't paraphrase this one because I basically have already had what the article said in a previous post:

Fireworks injure dozens at Wrestlemania - Yahoo! News

Not the way to end their biggest eventof the year.

As was stated, Taker and McMahon came to the ring after the show ended.

Here is a link that shows what happened afterwards:

Bigupload.com - Ric Flair Raw Tribute After Raw Went Off The Air

It is really amazing that his career is finally over AND the WWE let him go out on a good note. Save for Trish Stratus, how many feel-good moments have they gave with wrestlers who have contributed so much?

I still think back to when I saw him in 94, and thought that his career was over (he had that career Vs career with Hogan and lost). Of course he came back, which I was happy for as they showed a video of his career up to that point and I felt I was missing out. I'm glad that I was able to see roughly the latter half of his career.

Ultimately, I forsee Flair coming on occasionly for T.V. appearances. I don't forsee him becoming the GM again, a manager, or an announcer. Then again, this will truly be a test for Flair because this is truly the first time he will be gone from wrestling. Yes, he was gone for a few months last year to sort things out, and yes his last few months have been mainly T.V. appearances, and yes he has been out up to a year with previous injuries (albeit it was when he was much younger and had more 'energy' that made it hard for him to just sit around), but this will be the first time that he is truly away from it.

I do forsee the possibility of him coming back for one match. If he does, it will be Mania 25. Dunno who'd he face. Maybe Michaels in a rematch if Michaels did a heel turn (unlikely, I forsee Batista doing so). Maybe Triple H as Trips was the other guy Flair would have liked to have ended his career with. Sorta a way for him to do both. And that would be good for Trips as it would show that he is letting the future talent step up as he steps aside from the Mania main event which he has been apart of for the last several years since Mania 20 (excluding last years due to his injury).

I think Flair stated in an interview that hes going to be in more of a company role doing PR or something like that.

YouTube Video
Get the Flash Player to play this youtube video file.
here is a better version of the video and i don't know if its just me or is big upload just very very slow.

Starcade DVDs, especially the one where he fought Steamboat(but that was at Clash of the Champions I think) and it ended in a draw is going to be selling for a ton of money on ebay.

Heh, I remember I found a video store that had these years ago and I was in heaven. Too bad they were old tapes that I couldn't bootleg. I think '90 and '85 are the only one I still need to see. I loved the tournament structure in 89. Main event for 84 sucked...They stopped it at like 5 minutes in because Dusty was bleeding. Bah...

And yes, you're think of a Clash. It was actually a win for Steamboat after 54 minutes and the controversy (both men's shoulders were down) led to Flair winning the belt back at the next PPV. Maybe you're think of the 45
