      @@bryrobinson5609 I haven’t seen the sting match but in my opinion the WM one was just perfect. The emotion from Shawn at the end with the “I love you, I’m sorry”, the ovation he got afterwards, and the celebration on Raw the following night where the entire roster came out to pay their respects were all perfectly done. Even The Undertaker came out and showed him respect, in my opinion it was amazing

Yes, there were in fact planned spots for Flair to look completely frail and weakened. However he eventually was legitimately messed up in that match, too.
      Maybe calm down with the unnecessary hostility? We're all here because of something we _enjoy._ You can get your point across without name-calling and telling people what to do. There are some people that just watch wrestling programs and don't feel the need to "research" every single intricate detail about every little aspect of it.

    Completely agree, Flair had literally the perfect ending to a career you could have had! Him and Shawn worked that last match so perfectly (Shawn carried him obviously, but of course he did, he’s the greatest in ring talent of all time and Flair was old and his body was run down) they had the crowd in tears, it was beautiful. Flair struggling to rise but showing everyone that despite his body failing him he still had that dog in him. Shawn then saying ‘I love you, I’m sorry’ and finishing him with the super kick. It was magical, and I’m not even the biggest wrestling fan, but that was so damn good. Had he retired as the match stipulated he had to retire if he lost, he would have walked away with the best close to a career you could have. But….. he came back.

      said it before I'll say it again.
      plenty of older guys are starting to get back in the game at least a little bit thanks to modern medicine and everything, only difference is most of the older guys who are still wrestling today actually put in the work to take care of themselves. Sting and Goldberg for instance are incredibly healthy individuals and take care of themselves almost everyday. Ric Flair aside from the occasional training here and there with Jay Lethal is still out here drinking and smoking and doing crazy late night parties with Kid Rock... there's no fucking way anyone at *any* age is gonna be in peak physical condition after doing all that. but combine that with his age and wear and tear on his body he looks far worse than even someone like Hogan at this point. If Hogan didn't wreck his back doing the Leg Drop all those years I'd bet every cent I don't have he'd still be in ring shape, because he's still out there consistently lifting and keeping his arms jacked and everything... even *with* all his bad body parts and frail movement he's still in great shape visually and in a lot of areas. vs Ric.... well... I think that speaks for itself at this point.

    its so tragic how so many of these guys straight up died weeks or months after their final match. Who knows, they probably wanted to wrestle more

    Ric Flair was my favorite wrestler ever since I was a kid. I hate to see him go out like that. He should have stayed retired after his retirement match with HBK, we can try to forget about him getting back in the ring while in TNA but I absolutely loved his trade off with Jay Lethal doing his Ric Flair impression. Had Flair sweating just talking lol
    He no longer has anything left to accomplish or prove. I hate to see him getting beat up or bloody anymore

    The sad thing about Ric Flair's final match was there were probably people at that show that WANTED to see something tragic occur.
    The same way some people go to car races and actively hope for a crash.

    I refuse to acknowledge HBK’s return in 2018. His REAL last match was in 2010, and he never wrestled again. Anything else isn’t canon in my reality and I’m not even joking.

    It is absolutely shocking that Ric Flair wrestled for twenty-seven minutes at 73 years old.. Most people at that age can barely walk to the fridge for a cup of water. We should all thrive to be in his shape at that age.. WWOOOOO!!!😄
