Who's a heel who could use Flair? Both mid card titles are sewn up with heels who are set so that seems a bit moot, even the tag titles are. Hmmm.

Actually, Ric Flair would have been a perfect protege for Curtis Axel, considering the history between Flair and Mr. Perfect. Then Paul Heyman could have had someone else as a client.

Maybe someone new from NXT could come in under Flair's wing.

hmmm..........Trying to think of someone who needs a mouthpiece. I'd rather have the double turn.

Flair fucks over miz, Axel fucks over flair. Same night, book it.

How about Barrett? He was screwed over pretty badly at Payback so getting help from the dirtiest player in the game would make sense, hell throw the SD case on him. Let him have a strong build with Flair heeling it up against Miz first then others. As for who challenges axel Lord only knows.

I made a thread about that very scenario months ago. Pity WWE doesn't read these forums :sad:

Flair and Curtis would have been a horrible combination IMO. Their characters don't mesh at all.

What about sticking him with Kassius? Ever since Kassius has turned and apologized to Regal all we know about his character is that he's a student of the game, so pairing him up with a legend could be a cool way to go, and it would be cool to see him feud with Miz and take the Figure 4 from him.

As with Flair's old "stylin' and profilin'" high-class womanizer character, there's nobody you can stick that on. Could be cool to see that with Cesaro and Aksana but that ship sailed a year ago... Would mark to see him stuck with Corey Graves as an odd couple lmao. Especially with Corey's finisher being a modified Figure 4 that could be sold as Graves either improving upon Flair's move or one-upping Ric in a disrespectful manner.

I'd be okay with Flair and Graves for the hilarity of the situation. Ohno not so much. This may be me having watched Ohno pre-WWE but considering the amount of time he's spent on using Cravaté based submissions him suddenly adopting the figure four would feel wrong. Plus I have this idea of him debuting like Nigel McGuinness/Desmond Wolfe did in TNA. Just starting a war with an established star.

What character should Ohno play then? His character's been a complete blank slate since his turn, all we know is that he's an accomplished wrestler who respects the greats in the business. Fine, but as Bryan discovered that's just not enough.

To be fair his character was pretty bland already when he was a heel up until the Regal feud.

He should have a character similar to his independent character. Y2J style babyface spewing catchphrases and showcasing surprising agility for a big man. If a heel his King of wrestling character works very well. Which is also catchphrase spewing but with cheating (His finisher was a loaded elbow strike).

Flair is one of my all time favorites but he needs to stay off my screen at this point unless he is elbow dropping random articles of clothing.

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Yeah, I don't a single shit for Flair anymore. Last time I saw him on Raw it was fucking pathetically sad. :gtfo:
