| Quote: JTR "Do you really believe that? The reason Flair has gone to TNA is blatantly obvious, he has no choice. I'm sure he would love to be in a position to retire.'" Yeah I do. To be honest I find it impossible to sympathise with Flair - he lived like a king in the 80's & 90's with the limo's, suits, partying etc. At his peak I bet he was one of the highest paid wrestlers in the world. God knows what he earned from his 'retirement' match with HBK. End of the day he could have stayed with WWE under a Legends contract or been an on-screen performer (e.g. a manager) to earn money, but he just can't be without that spotlight. If he's skint now after the money he would have earned over the years it's his own fault. The way he's tarnished his legacy over the last 10 years is one of the reason's why I feel that HBK is the greatest of all-time, not Flair.

Chris Kanyon founs dead in his apartment Friday night. Aparently suicide as a result of his bi-polar disorder.

I really don't care for Flair at all myself, not in the slightest. My point is all this talk about his retirement in WWE meaning nothing to him is nothing short of rubbish. A legends contract is not going to get a skint man through life. Quote: Roofs "Chris Kanyon founs dead in his apartment Friday night. Aparently suicide as a result of his bi-polar disorder.'" Very sad to hear

Slightly concerned about the title change on SD. They booked Swagger as a bit of a joke on Raw in the same week in that he couldn't pin Cena even after several briefcase shots. So to have him turn up on SD and pin their champion, imo, devalues both the World title AND Jericho as it makes him look weak. I'm assuming he's picked up an injury and is having time off. As for HBK bashing Flair, I don't think that's the case. I think HBK is disappointed that Flair didn't ride off into the sunset as planned, but he understands Flair's reasons for keeping going and there's very little to do with staying in the spot-light. It's more down to Flair's private life which includes, I believe, 4 ex wives to pay for plus a few other lawsuits that he's paying off. HBK is one of a handful of wrestlers who is actually in a position to not NEED to wrestle. Stone Cold, Foley and Rock are the few I can think of off the top of my head.

Very sad to hear Road agent, booker, adviser, on-screen manager, commentator etc. There's loads of jobs he could have done. Flair's in the position he's in now because he lived the high life to excess and married several times. To keep wrestling in TNA is inexcusable - the guy got the biggest send-off of all-time by WWE. A guy who looked upto him gave him his best match for 15-20 years. Surely TNA can't be paying him sh*tloads to wrestle - the guy can barely move ffs!

Roofs what gives you the right to say things like that against Flair? He is the best (he's flawed who isnt?)

Quote: Up the Dons "Roofs what gives you the right to say things like that against Flair? He is the best (he's flawed who isnt?)'" the HBK V Flair was a great way to end his career he got a big pay day on the back of it but still wanted more and more . My heart bleeds for him hes had more money in a year than some see in 25 years off 60 hours a week, he betrayed the fans imho and a match that should of gone down in folklore is now just a poor mid card WM XXIV match . Woooooooooooooooooooooo my booty

JR's contract with WWE expires this month - WWE don't want him to be a commentator but he says he has no objection to returning to the announce table. TNA should pull out all the stops to bring him in - in my opinion he would be their biggest signing. Bringing someone in who can really 'sell' the moment to the viewer would be a huge deal for them, especially since WWE don't have anyone like that to replace him right now. I would have thought the lighter schedule would appeal to him.

I used to enjoy TNA but since the takeover its gone downhill. They have taken the hottest tag team in wrestling, Beer Money, and changed them into Bischoffs stodges. Daniels has been released, Nash, Hall and Waltman are back in the main event , Kong has been released and Bubba Love Sponge kept, but at least the Nasty Boys have been released.
