Ric Flair hangs em up. Whoooo!
For 36 years, Ric Flair made people feel good. He was, and remains, the consummate showman a professional in the world of sports-entertainment that gave everything of himself to his fans and friends, both inside and outside of the ring.The 16-time World Champion and 2008 WWE Hall of Fame inductee welled-up and basked in the admiration of fans, but that wasn’t the end of his night. Triple H’s entrance theme hit the air, and The Game began a parade of well-wishers who emerged to offer bear hugs and words of encouragement.Among the well-wishers were those who Flair had taken under his wing and mentored over the years, including Triple H, Batista, John Cena, Chris Jericho and Edge, and contemporaries such as the legendary Harley Race, Ricky The Dragon Steamboat, Greg Valentine and Dean Malenko. And of course, it would’nt have been complete without an appearance by the legendary Four Horsemen - Arn Anderson, Tully Blanchard, Barry Windham and JJ Dillon - and Flair’s family, including his wife, daughter and two sons.
