I wanted to mention a memory I have of Ric. I lived in Idowild Farms in Charlotte, NC and Ric lived on powder horn or pepper hill, one street over from my street Red Carriage Lane. It was 1973 and was 7 years old and I walked over to his house and rang the doorbell. Ric answered the door and was as nice as he could be. He gave me his autograph and really made my day or month or year. I’m 56 now and remember that day well.

That’s a good story. Didn’t even realize Flair was in Charlotte only one year into his career. Since he worked in the AWA then. And in 73 he wasn’t even the nature boy yet.

My bro is Jason Sensation. He's was sleeping in his room and I saw Bobby Heenan on TV with Ric Flair's belt. I ran as fast as I could to tell him and we ran back downstairs, both jumped over the coffee table and end table to sit up close in front of the TV, and watched in awe.. It was so important. Such an amazing memory :)

Heh, it always struck me as funny how Vince didn't mind using the NWA/WCW belt on his tv, then 5 or 6 years later, did what he did to Bret because he was apparently afraid of Bret going to WCW with the old winged eagle....

Flair going to the WWF in the early 90's was BIG!I mean that wouldve been like Stone Cold Steve Austin going to the WCW in the Attitude Era!But Flair to WWF that time was something nobody thought would ever happen.Not even Hogan to the WCW in the mid to late 90's had that impact.

He's is the ONLY athlete EVER to have a belt, robe and a catch phrase (Wooo) symbolically tied to him FOREVER and that in and itself is legendary and immortal. 500 years from now people will be talking about Ric Flair before or after seeing the Big Gold Belt.

I was the only NWA fan in my class. Everyone was a WWF fan and never watched the NWA. They laughed when I would tell them that Ric Flair was the real world champion because, I would say, "WWF is fake and NWA is real." I know this is unpopular to say, but I was disappointed when Flair's first WWF feud was with Piper. I wanted him to go straight to Hogan. Piper wasn't in the world title picture, so I felt it made Ric look less important.
