When I saw your title, with Ric Flair, I was like YO! Wrestling!
I do agree that this guy along with a few other did shape the game into what we have today.
He is indeed a G.O.A.T in the field of wrestling
I also love these other guys: Shawn Michaels, Stone Cold Steve Austin and Hulk Hogan.
i never really cared much for Hogan, he was too "eat your vegetables, say your prayers, and listen to your parents" clean.... where as i preferred the "kiss-stealin', wheelin-dealing, jet-flyin, limosine ridin, whooo! son of a gun.
But yeah, i love HBK and the Texas Rattlesnake. :)
Hahahaha
I think they all just had their unique styles.
