Prior to interviewing fellow WWE Hall of Famer Ric flair on a recent episode of his podcast, Steve Austin pitched his case as to why Ric Flair should be considered the greatest of all time [GOAT] in the world of pro wrestling.
The former WWE Champion stated that if you know anything about professional wrestling, you know about Flair. “If you have any common sense, Ric Flair is the greatest professional wrestler that ever lived.”
He continued by stating that when you look at his body of work, all of the world title defenses, promos and in-ring skills, then everyone should know that Flair is the man. Austin stated that he tried to basically pattern the beginning part of his career after Flair, which is a sign of how big of an influence he was on Austin.
He sees Flair to be one of the toughest men he’s ever met in his life due to all of the spots that he has done and living the lifestyle that Flair had then he was burning the candle at so many ends and what a glorious career he had. He brought up how Flair did that for nearly 40 years.
Austin brought up how there shouldn’t be any discussion of how good Flair is. “Yeah, he is that good. He’s the greatest to have ever done it.”
