Ric Flair

None of you can be first. But all of you can be next...    --Ric FlairI watched Ric Flair and The Four Horsemen with the boy the other night, and it really struck me how Bad Boy/Death Row these dudes were. The whole aesthetic--"private jets...finest women...most expensive cars...biggest house"--is basically what popular hip-hop became as it matured. And then of course emphasis on mike skills (someone in the doc literally called it that, I...  

Triple H's awards:Finisher of the Year:Cody Rhodes On Being Sent Face-First Into Triple H's Sledgehammer via Shawn Michaels' Sweet Chin Music at Hell in a CellBest Mic Skills:Triple H - The Game knows how to walk the walk, but he's just as skilled at talking the talk. Whether he's calling out Orton with sledgehammer in hand or dialing HBK, Triple H commands our attention week in, week out as we cling to his every wordsource: wwe magazine...  

I’ve watched the WWF  since the Moon Dog era. I saw Jimmy “Superfly” Snuka and Andre the “GianT” @ Hartford Civic Cntr. I never knew about the other federations or that they were territorial. Then WCW  errupted  and  I faithfully watched WWF  while  cursing “traders” such as “Hulk Hogan”. WWF took over WCW  then ECW. I was [...]  

If the day comes when Jim Leavitt doesn't want to coach the USF Bulls, he'd fit in so very nicely at the WWE. You think Hulk Hogan's a great bleeder? You think Ric Flair's face is a crimson mask? They've got nothing on Jimmy Leavitt. With his team leading lowly Louisville 17-16 at halftime last Saturday and the players seemingly in need of motivation, Leavitt did what only Leavitt does. He threw himself into the helmeted head of walk-on...  

For years now, the wrestling community has been saying things about the power that Triple H wields within the WWE.  Ever since HBK and HHH formed DX and became a ratings magnet, Vince has let them get away with just about anything they wanted. Some time later, Hunter married the boss's daughter and became a member of the extended McMahon family, giving him more backstage power than almost any other wrestler has had.  He is without a doubt a...  

Predictions for tonight’s WWE pay-per-view: WWE unified tag team champions Chris Jericho and The Big Show vs. DX in a TLC match: I’m not sure if this is the “official” main event, but it is in my opinion. Judging by the way Jericho and Big Show laid out DX on Raw and the fact that one of the selling points has been that DX has never been tag team champions, I think Shawn Michaels and Triple H win the belts. The only problem is that I think a...  

SHOT OF THE DAY Hulk Hogan and Ric Flair are stepping back in the ring this weekend (no, it isn't 1984); and the two broke out in a fight while promoting the show in Australia.  That's typical wrestling, but Hogan's camp claims the fight between the two geriatrics was legit.Hogan suffered a terrible blow to the head and blood gushed everywhere when Flair attacked him.  Sounds like typical wrestling, huh?Well, TMZ is reporting that the entire...  

While there currently is no WWE television programming on Wednesdays, there will soon be comic books based on Triple H, Undertaker and John Cena, courtesy of a new partnership between Titan Publishing and the WWE. With that dark, mid-week void filled, WWE fans have a reason to get out of bed.  

Whenever the subject of TNA has come up in the past, Ric Flair always spoke negatively about the company and reportedly never even considered taking a meeting when TNA reached out to him. Apparently, times have changed.  

Predictions for tonight’s WWE pay-per-view, which I will be attending at Verizon Center in Washington: WWE champion John Cena vs. Triple H vs. Shawn Micheals in a triple threat match: The two DX members have been very chummy and silly as of late, but I think things will get heated in this match. Triple H and Michaels start out playing nice with each other but gradually become more aggressive. For the finish, I think one of the DX members will...

The evening got off to a bittersweet start for Jeri-Show. Just one night after losing their Unified Tag Team Titles to Triple H & Shawn Michaels at WWE TLC: Tables, Ladders & Chairs, Chris Jericho & Big Show accepted the Slammy Award for Tag Team of the Year. After soaking up accolades, mostly from himself, Jericho informed the WWE Universe that he and The World’s Largest Athlete will invoke their rematch clause against DX tonight. Full...

With less than two weeks until WWE TLC: Tables, Ladders & Chairs, Unified Tag Team Champions Chris Jericho & Big Show presented their case against their rivals straight to the WWE Universe. The two rattled off a list of reasons they felt DX was unworthy of facing them in a Tables, Ladders & Chairs Match.For their part, DX objected – strenuously. Triple H & Shawn Michaels stated that they’re eager to shut the mouths of their opponents once and...
