Guest bravesfan Posted May 21, 2003 Report Posted May 21, 2003 That's AWESOME. If the cameras were rolling (ala Austin's return at Staples in February), then we could see it in some form of future DVD or television package.
Guest Lil Naitch Posted May 21, 2003 Report Posted May 21, 2003 anybody else think that HHH is doing a "Zieg Heil" there in the first pic? And those are awesome pics- can't wait to get home to pull them onto my hard drive.
Guest Nevermortal Posted May 21, 2003 Report Posted May 21, 2003 Is that Christian behind HHH? Looks like it.
Guest Youth N Asia Posted May 21, 2003 Report Posted May 21, 2003 Very nice pics...I saved them to my computer
Guest edge-o-matic Posted May 21, 2003 Report Posted May 21, 2003 OH MY GOD. What did he do to his hair? That was his power - he's nothing now! Well, this just sucks. But I want to see this on Confidential or something - I don't even bother watching most WWE TV now.
Guest Bannable Offense Posted May 21, 2003 Report Posted May 21, 2003 anybody else think that HHH is doing a "Zieg Heil" there in the first pic? Good. I wasn't the only one thinking this.
Guest pochorenella Posted May 21, 2003 Report Posted May 21, 2003 That better be included in some DVD, and pronto.
Guest jester Posted May 21, 2003 Report Posted May 21, 2003 anybody else think that HHH is doing a "Zieg Heil" there in the first pic? Good. I wasn't the only one thinking this. I thought the same thing too. Let's see. 1. The iron cross. 2. The suspicious salute in the picture. 3. The running down Booker with racial overtones. Once is Happenstance. Twice is Coincidence. The third time it's Enemy action. That's it. I'm calling the Simon Wiesenthal Centre.
Guest Dmann2000 Posted May 21, 2003 Report Posted May 21, 2003 Please let me put one of those in my sig
Guest Tony149 Posted May 21, 2003 Report Posted May 21, 2003 Flair still looks cool holding the belt. Vince can put on all the shitty shows he wants, just as long as he releases a Flair DVD.
B. Brian Brunzell Posted May 21, 2003 Report Posted May 21, 2003 Well, that just figures. The one time that the WWF does something classy it's not on television. And dammit, I want a Flair DVD.
TheOriginalOrangeGoblin Posted May 21, 2003 Author Report Posted May 21, 2003 Please let me put one of those in my sig If you want'em in your sig go ahead.
Guest Fook_Hing_Ho Posted May 21, 2003 Report Posted May 21, 2003 This will probably end up on the Flair DVD, that is if they ever release one.
Guest The Bad Guy Posted May 22, 2003 Report Posted May 22, 2003 Those are great pics. Long live Flair.
Guest AM The Kid Posted May 22, 2003 Report Posted May 22, 2003 Thank you for posting those. What a classy tribute to Flair, he looks really proud in the picture.

Guest nl5xsk1 Posted May 22, 2003 Report Posted May 22, 2003 Not to piss on the parade, but it saddens me to see the greatest wrestler of all time (and someone who used to pride himself on wearing Rolex watches, $3,000.00 Armani suits, flying in jet planes, riding in limosines, and being a wheeling dealing kiss stealing son of a gun) drinking ... Miller Lite?!? Couldn't Austin have handed him something less "working class"?
Guest FeArHaVoC Posted May 22, 2003 Report Posted May 22, 2003 Lance Storm Commentary I was a part of something very special this week. No I’m not talking about my, 1:08 breaking, Battle Royal appearance, or for that matter my 1:08 shattering match with Bill Goldberg, Monday night. I’m talking about something that had very little to do with me. Monday night at RAW, after the cameras went off, the locker room cleared and hit the ring. This was not part of some post match run-in, this was as a sign of respect and appreciation for one of, if the not, the greatest performers in our industry. We hit the ring to give Ric Flair a standing ovation. I’ve talked about how much of a mark I am for Ric Flair, both as a worker and a person. Well I am not alone when it comes to being a big fan of “The Nature Boy”. The crowd needed little encouragement so as the ring filled up with his peers, the entire arena in Greenville, SC was on thier feet in a sign of respect for the man who has, ”bled, sweat, and paid the price” more times than any of us can remember. He’s given us countless mat classics, some of the greatest matches in wrestling history. If you’ve ever had the good fortune of buying a ticket to see Ric Flair, “walk that isle” you know what I’m talking about. For over 20 years he’s been a “limousine riding, jet flying, wheeling-dealing, kiss steeling, son of a gun” whose always delivered. Monday night on RAW was no exception. Ric gave an emotional promo that gave me goose bumps. When Ric told Hunter that he’d been in a 1000 matches like that, and never once said he couldn’t wrestle; Ric Flair owned that arena. Ric bumped and chopped his way into all of our hearts one more time. Giving him a standing ovation and the respect he deserves just seemed right. There were no more heels or baby faces, there was just an arena full of people who love Ric Flair and what he means to this industry. Everyone from Vince McMahon all the way down to the guys who wrestled the dark matches that night, stood in the ring and toasted the Nature Boy. It was one of those emotional moments that you never know when, or if, they will happen again. Ric stood in the ring with tears in his eyes as the arena chanted for a speech. The ring cleared giving Ric center stage, and in true Ric Flair fashion he went on to put over everyone in the building but himself. He thanked the office for the opportunity, the boys for their respect, and every fan for being apart of his life for the past 20-some years. This is what being a wrestling fan is all about. It’s about buying a ticket to see the matches, and ending up being a part of history. It was moments like this and people like Ric Flair that make me glad I became a wrestler. Thanks you Ric, for everything you’ve meant to this business, and for renewing my love for wrestling. Till next week, Lance
Guest Dmann2000 Posted May 22, 2003 Report Posted May 22, 2003 Lance, you're not the only one who he reinforces the love of wrestling in.
