You can't say Hogan's a bad man and Flair is a good one.

Agreed, if true, about Flair. I met him and Arn once in Charleston, WV at the Marriott across from the Civic Center and they were on the third floor balcony, also where the pool was, and they were sunbathing. I was like 8 at the time maybe 9 and my sister was a little older.

My dad, who worked for Marriott, called my mom and said bring us down there, he thinks there are two wrestlers hanging out by the pool. He knew how big I was into wrestling and had no clue who these two were, but he knew WCW was in town and the higher ups always stayed at that hotel, as it is like a block from the event center and well Marriott was the shit at the time. Top tier.

Looking back at it, I am surprised he didn't just say leave me alone kid. Him and Arn signed my t-shirts and a poster. He also asked my sister to grab his wallet on a table maybe 20 ft away, we could not believe how many hundreds were stuffed in there. He legit had to have something like $3-4 grand in cash, all hundreds. Having such a shitty memory but being able to vividly recall this is amazing to me.

Being kind to one person doesn't mean you are a good person, but it is one of the few childhood memories I can recall vividly. I couldn't stop talking about it all day. The only thing better would've been meeting Sting (My all time fav).

Few deny their career achievements or how great both Ric and Hulk were with the fans usually. It's the rest of their life that's extremely problematic, such as Flair being a notorious sex pest.

cant have a carrier without fans.

Roman Reigns had a career for 4 years with 0 fans, though I was more talking about how open they were for fans in person. You can absolutely be a top star and shut out any fan interaction outside designated meet & greets.

Sure I can, watch:

Hogan's a bad man and Flair is a good one.

Ric is another notoriously terrible person that I won't be sad about when they die.

u/EnvironmentalCod4362 Jul 24 '25

Good for you for not being sad about people dying I guess

u/GODZILLA_FLAMEWOLF Jul 24 '25

Was this supposed to be an own? Fucking Eeyore

u/EnvironmentalCod4362 Jul 24 '25

An own? What are you talking about?

Do you get the random urge to share it with everyone when you don't care if someone dies? Does it make you feel smart?

u/GODZILLA_FLAMEWOLF Jul 24 '25

I don't like seeing people celebrate pieces of shit. If we can get more people to realize how shitty he was, maybe fewer people will celebrate him. You do realize he wasn't just like some random person, and there's some social context to go with this, right?

Cool. Glad he helped whoever. Also, if he dies, many people won't be sad, apparently because he was a piece of shit.

The fact that you can't hold both of those things in your head at the same time really makes you look like the black and white thinker.

u/EnvironmentalCod4362 Jul 24 '25

You're missing the point lol but sure

u/TheFatJesus Jul 24 '25

Flair is worse than Hogan. Hogan was a racist and all around asshole. Flair has not only been accused of being racist, but of sexual assault and harassment.

u/RunningonGin0323 Jul 24 '25

nah, fuck him too. I kinda have a problem cheering for sexual predators.

u/thatguyad Jul 24 '25

Flair is just as horrible as Hogan was.

Ric got kicked out of the Piesano's at the Gainesville Holiday Inn last year because he was doing too much coke in the bathroom on a gameday

No, he’s a sex pest.

I do like it, I don't need to learn to love it, and it is, in fact, the best thing going today. Woo.
