I always felt like Ric Flair was underrated

 

[Kiffy Lube]

When in the sense NWA was better than WWE at his prime, I'll accept that

 

[Deezy]

So his prime was 88/89? whoa

 

[Kiffy Lube]

89 specifically

 

[Chris]

89 is peak Flair IMO even if he's still amazing for a good while after that

 

[Chris]

But I think '89 Flair is my favorite single year of a wrestler's career ever

 

[Grimoire Lenin]

83-86 NWA was better than WWF, but 87-92 WWF was better than NWA/WCW

 

[Deezy]

Bret in 97 is 1 and indie Cena is 1A

 

[Chris]

I think I'd give WWF the edge in '87 and MAYBE 88 but 89 is still NWA/WCW for me

 

[Chris]

Bret in 97 is 1 and indie Cena is 1A

'89 Flair, '93 Vader, and '00 Trips tbh

 

[Kiffy Lube]

Okay, Grim name 3 WWE matches in 89 that are better than Flair/Steamboat

 

[Chris]

Warrior/Andre

 

[Chris]

They at least had 3 matches in '89

 

[Kiffy Lube]

if he actually goes with that

 

[Grimoire Lenin]

Okay, Grim name 3 WWE matches in 89 that are better than Flair/Steamboat

You bank on Flair/Steamboat and Flair/Funk and outside of those two matches and Midnight vs. Original Midnight, that's it for WCW. WWF at the time had Hogan/Savage, Warrior/Rude, Roberts/DiBiase & Andre, and other great storylines going on.
