WOO!

Hi!

Leebo hasn't been on The Show for a while. Let's get some things out of the way.


First and foremost, I have to shout out WOO! For Ric Flair, The Nature Boy. Supposedly, Ric Flair wrestled his last match at WRESTLEMANIA. It was a great match and easily the best match at the event.


WRESTLEMANIA was at the Damn Newcombes while they were in Mexico. What was that, Newc? You got an extra 55 dollar charge on your cable bill? I don't know what your talking about. Go away.


I remember going to the Civic and the Armory back in the day to watch Naitch rassle the likes of The American Dream Dusty Rhodes, Mike Graham, Harley Race, Bob Roop, etc. Back in the day, rasslin was all terriorial, and the National Wrestling Alliance was the deal here. Those were the days, and Flair was a big part of that. Those days were the best.


His career is legendary, and if we have really seen the last of Naitch in the ring (he'll be around in a PR capacity for WWE), then it truly was the end of an era. He is one of the last of the Greats.


Watching RAW Monday when all the "boys in the back" came out and saluted him really was the best. It was a tremendous show of respect and a total shoot. I loved it. To be the Man, you got to beat The Man, and very few beat Ric Flair in my book. Thanks, Naitch, it was a helluva run.


WOO!!!!!!!!!
