Ah Ric Flair. The man who doesn't like Bret Hart. Or something. Anyway, they don't like each other. I'm supposed to be writing a review for his DVD, so I'll get right to it. Actually, I wasn't going to get this DVD, as I didn't think I would enjoy it. But I heard a lot of good things about it, so I bought it, and I realise I was wrong. The first disc starts off with a Cage match against Harley Race from Starrcade 1983. This match was good. Flair gets a good crowd reaction as it is in North Carolina. This is the match where Flair wins his second of SIXTEEN World Heavyweight Championships (he only won two of those in WWE). The next match is a World Championship defense against the father of Goldust, 'The American Dream' Dusty Rhodes. This time, Flair is the bad guy. Another good match with a strange ending. They explain it in one of the extras. The third and final match of Disc 1 is a match against Barry Windham. This match has some parts missing, since it was on a show with commercial breaks. It is still a good match, with DUSTY RHODES providing commentary. Disc 2 is next (duh) with the first two matches being matches against Ricky Steamboat. Fans of old school wrestling will love these two encounters, but other fans will too. I can't rememeber different things about the two matches, but they are both classic wrestling matches. Next is the "I Quit" Match between Ric Flair and Terry Funk. This match is a non-title match (huh?)with Flair as the good guy again. Yet another great match from the Nature Boy. Wooo! The final disc starts with the entire and unedited 1992 Royal Rumble Match where Ric Flair eneters at number 3. Bobby Heenan is not pleased. Ric Flair set the record for the longest amount of time spent in a Royal Rumble match without being eliminated. The final match on this DVD is back in WCW against Sting. The stream of classic wrestlign matches continues and this match has a SURPRISE ENDING. This DVD isn't lacking in the extras department either. There are three extra matches: Ric Flair VS. Triple H for the World Heavyweight Championship on Raw and Ric Flair and Barry Windham VS. Ricky Steamboat and Eddie Gilbert and Ric Flair VS. Pete Sanchez (Flair's World Wide Wrestlign Federation debut) There are also interviews, press conferences, Flair on the final episode of WCW Monday Nitro, an episode of the Funeral Parlor and loads of other stuff. If you are a wrestling fan, and you haven't got this, then you should. Especially if you like old school wrestling. I also have the Mick Foley DVD, so there's a big difference there. Anyway, full marks for this brilliant compilation.Read full review
"The Nature Boy" Ric Flair, one of the greatest professional wrestlers in the history of sports entertainment, if not THE greatest. Hulk Hogan, The Rock and "Stone Cold" Steve Austin all have the enthusiasm and in-ring ability, but Flair epitomises these traits. Being a 16-time world champion proves his sheer quality in the squared circle and on the microphone. This boxset has wonderful older matches from the NWA such as Flair's feuds with Harley Race, Dusty Rhodes and Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat. His chemistry with Steamboat in particular is sensational. The matches with Sting and Triple H are also expertly worked. However, I wish WWE would release another boxset of more recent matches aswell and maybe even include a couple of matches with Hogan and Hart just for premier nostalgia purposes. All in all though, a very good collection even though I wouldn't call it "The Ultimate". Well worth buying as Flair's promo work is worth the money on it's own! "Woooo!"Read full review
