Ric Flair Explains Why WWE Hall Of Fame Is The Biggest Moment Of His Life
A lot of people around the world considered him as one of the biggest professional wrestlers in the history of the business. Recently another big legend of professional wrestling Hulk Hogan named Flair as one of the top three stars in the world of professional wrestling ever. Lot of fans and pundits believe he is the best ever.
Just the night after he got inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame individually in 2008, he wrestled Shawn Michaels at the stage of WrestleMania XXIV where his career was on the line. It is considered as one of the most emotional and dramatic matches in the history of WrestleMania and professional wrestling.
It was believed that he would not work any professional wrestling promotion after getting inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2008. But he could not stop because of a lot of issues he had to face afterwards. Currently he is completely retired from Professional wrestling even though he sometimes makes sporadic non wrestling appearances.
Ric Flair who is a former sixteen times World Champion as recognised by the WWE recently spoke on his WOOOOOO Nation podcast where he talked about his Hall of Fame induction. He said that it was the biggest moment of his career. He said;
“That weekend was the biggest moment of my life. That’s not taking away from Harley (Race) or Terry (Funk), or anything like that, but I mean, just to see the people in the audience that really genuinely care about you, and the fans generally care about you, it’s just hard to imagine. Then you walk away.
“What’s different is for me, I left the business altogether. Mark (Undertaker) will always be part of the business and he’ll always be a featured attraction when called upon. The Hall of Fame for me was the end. For him, it’s just another great tribute to a great wrestler and a great guy.”
