There was a vague news report a couple weeks ago of a HOFer passing his finishing move to a younger talent. Seems like this is it, but I'd rather see someone, anyone else besides The Miz on the receiving end here.
Who would you rather see get the submission if not Miz?

The segment was shit, but if Miz starts using the Figure Four I'll be fine with that. It's not like Flair invented the thing.

Where is this idea that Flair is "passing the torch" to Miz coming from? Miz did the Figure Four once in a segment with Ric Flair on a nostalgia show. Is Flair coming back for a run and actually going to manage Miz like he did with AJ? It seemed like a one off thing to me. I got the passing the torch thing from Lawler's own mouth. Plus... {Spoiler}Miz uses it on SD

If Flair passed on the Figure Four, that's cool with me (and should be cool with everyone else who has a problem with the Skull Crushing Finale), but it's not like he passed on anything else. Until "Da Naitcha Boy" Mike Mizanin comes out in a glittery robe and wooo-ing, I call reaching.

Maybe I'd be ok with this if Miz was, you know, a weasel chickenshit heel, what he's actually good at being. Instead he's a face...so...yeah. Some torch.

They're gay. They have gay sex with each other. And Miz totally misses Maryse when he has that big, white, wrinkly body on top of him with is loose skin and old...balls, gross!!

It's obvious why Flair gave Miz the finisher.
Because Ric Flair appreciates that Miz dresses well.
Think about it, Flair always wore the nicest suits, now, Miz is the guy on the roster who makes the effort to dress up.
Makes as much sense as anything else.

If he went by "The Nature Douche", I'd give Miz all my money.

The Miz took Ric Flair in the backstage shower (with rape face) stripped off his suit clothes (wearing under wear underneath) and gave him his ring gear while he burnt his suit in the trash and absorbed his powers. Than made Ric Flair turn on the showers slowly to put out the fire of course while The Miz stripped to his underwear not to get his suit wet. I won't let this post/meme go unacknowledged.

Stylin', profilin'...I can buy it.

So this Miz/Flair partnership was more than a one time thing on Raw? After I thought about it for a while, I guess I'm okay with Miz taking on "the torch" of the figure four. Someone needs to adopt it, and hell why not the Miz? Maybe this can work out. Maybe it won't. It's hard to step out of the Nature Boy's shadow. We'll see.

Miz taking something else he didn't come up with, in order to get himself over?
What else is new?
It'll be interesting to see Cesaro to play chickenshit against the Miz if they start feuding. Or better yet, possibly tap out to him. *shudder*

As long as Flair is knee and elbow dropping his suit jacket and imaginary wrestlers, it really doesn't matter where The Miz is located within the frame of the video.

And probably not the trunks either. I don't know how the Miz can explain why his royal purple tights have the 'RF' monogram. Rob Feinstein appreciates his boyish looks? Wow. You've earned an aisle seat. Well played.

I think people are way overreacting to this. It seemed like a one-off to me.

I don't mind the Miz getting a submission. But I really want Flair off my screen.

Miz used the figure four just for one match, as continuity from what happened on RAW. It still seems like a temporary thing. There's no indication that the figure four will be Miz's new finisher. He might be able to make Primo tap out with it, but he probably won't submit anyone important. And there's no indication that Flair is back to be Miz's manager.
