Flair, the biggest HHH ass kisser, thinks HHH "made" Bryan? Sounds about right.

Bryan vs HHH may be the best match in HHH's career and wouldn't even crack the top 50 best Brian Danielson matches.

Ric Flair is entitled to his opinion, just as I am entitled to disagree with him.

Like most of you I'm also out on Flair. I agree that the HHH match was what made him on a large scale, really that entire night, but Bryan is clearly great.
Here's what frustrates me about Flair. His entire prime was spent in a second rate promotion as the top guy. The NWA was lesser than the WWF and Flair was on top the whole time. At no point were they ever big competition once Hulk got started and Flair acts like it was neck and neck. Only when WCW moved to other guys did they become real competition. When Flair went to the WWF he was a failure as the champion and couldn't draw. I get he was great but quite honestly he's never been in my top 5 ever.
I think he gets a weird pass from a lot of fans but to me he's not on the elite level of guys to ever do it. He's a lesser star all time than Bryan I would think.

I think the AJ thing is kind of especially headtilting to me because I can think of a hell of a lot more terrible AJ Styles matches than Bryan Danielson ones. Both certainly have some - hell, I can think of some each had specifically with Randy Orton, and for that matter with each other - but AJ has a much weaker catalogue of work I think.

Flair isn't fit to lace Bryan's boots,on every level Bryan is better than Flair ever was on top of being a far far better human being then Flair.

I think Flair is completely wrong about Danielson, I also think there's some severe revisionist history in the thread as it relates to Flair's past drawing power and impact on wrestling as a whole.

"How many wives has he ever even had?" Me: "One. But sometimes he confuses her with her twin." Flair: "...Ok, fair enough." And, I get it due to Ric's age but calling Bryan a kid when he's wrestled for over twenty years is kind of funny.

He's a sad old man whose finally ignited enough bridges that he's feeling consequences, so he's turned to the last port for all toss bags... provocative podcasts.
Flair the wrestler is one of the greatest of all time. Flair the man is pathetic.

I agree that Flair the person has proven to be a creep following DSOTR and I'm sure other allegations, nobody is obliged to give him respect either. I just don't see the benefit in the revisionist history as it relates to his professional accomplishments.

Bryan Danielson is a better wrestler than Ric "Have the same match every night for 30 years" Flair. I said what I said. You’re…. Not wrong.

flair lost any credibility with me years ago. At this point he will say anything to keep himself in the spotlight, and will do anything if the $ is right. I think at this point he has about 10 favorite NFL teams.

He’s completely wrong about Bryan, who’s the absolute best wrestler in the world right now. But you’re way underselling the importance of the NWA in the late 70s to late 80s.

If Flair owned Bryan money, he'd praise him as the greatest wrestler who ever lived. His opinions mean shit anymore.

I'd rather watch Bryan Danielson over Ric Flair any day.
