20 Worst Wrestlers In TNA History

9. Ric Flair

Remember that incredibly emotional Ric Flair versus Shawn Michaels retirement match from WrestleMania XXIV? How about the retirement ceremony on the post-WrestleMania Raw the night after? Damn, brings a tear to my eye just thinking about it. I'm so glad Ric Flair chose to honour the stipulation and never wres... oh. Oh, that's right. I forgot about his woeful TNA run for a moment (what a blissful moment that was).

The Nature Boy is one of the greatest of all-time, yes, and there's an argument to be made that he should be able to wrestle until he's 137-years-old if he wants to, such is his status within the industry. However, I do not want to see this Hall of Famer wrestling midcard guys in an arena that seats, at best, a few hundred people, nor do I want to see him being brought to ringside in a wheelchair by Hulk Hogan. Nor do I want to see him stripped from his clothes and bleeding profusely from his forehead. These things all happened in TNA.

Ric Flair p*ssed all over his WWE retirement simply because he wanted to wrestle again. For the hopeless TNA, no less. He relied on falling down, chops, and getting his arse out, and it was clear that the ageing Flair had next-to-nothing left in the tank. It was not good. 'Naitch, we love ya, but your TNA run was the pits, mate.
