MGH, are we allowed to discuss the matches we are thinking about voting for? I want to get some opinions from some crappers since I think people are going to leave out a match

I just don't want people posting their full lists or trying to sway people behind voting a certain match higher. Most of the heavier stuff gets saved for the actual countdowns. BTW, at last count I have over a dozen lists in today, and 55 matches already. That's easily a single day record in matches nominated.

I've got Steamboat on there 5 times and after him I tried to spread it around and get a bit from everybody. I think only Sting makes more than one appearance other than Steamboat. There are just too many to choose from.

Just the only one I'll talk about is the Flair/Show match for the ECW title. Anyone remember how amazing it was watching late 50s Flair do those spots? I just think that is one of the most underrated matches ever...

I just think that is one of the most underrated matches ever... I'd say the same about his TLC match with Edge from Jan 06. It's not on my list, but to me that was his last great singles match, even if his last match with HBK has huge emotional appeal. But it's definitely worth an honourable mention. 2006 seemed to be all about Ric Flair showing he could be like Terry Funk doing hardcore in his 50s (TLC, MITB, ECW match) I guess in order to build up to his feud with Foley.

I really did two of his HBK matches that were not WM 24. Prime Time Wrestling in 91 as a Rocker and Badd Blood 03 both i think are VERY underrated in Flair's career.

Sent mine in earlier, here's a look at how my top fifteen shaped up:
- Five matches from the 1980s, 1990s and 2000s respectively - Three of his five WrestleMania matches made the cut - Sting makes the most appearances on the list, with four, including once as a tag partner with Flair - One match I attended live, thus rating it higher than I would have had I seen it on television - Six non-PPV matches, one house show match - I broke my own personal rule and included a battle royal - Eight WWF/E matches, four WCW matches and three NWA matches

Ric Flair gets 30 but Hogan gets 20?
Nah I don't mind. I'm not a Ric Flair fan though

Still putting mine together while watching a ton of Flair matches. Just saw a great Flair/Brody match from Japan, but I don't know the date so that probably won't end up on mine.
What I think will be pretty interesting is if there ends up being any one Flair/Steamboat match the breaks away from their others, or if they stay pretty even.
