Ric Flair Speaks on Stone Cold Induction

Ric Flair has publicly shared his thoughts about inducting Stone Cold Steve Austin


RATTLESNAKE CALLS, FLAIR ANSWERS

In a current issue of the Charleston Post Courier, Ric Flair commented on the idea of inducting Steve Austin into the WWE Hall of Fame.

QUOTE:

“I heard that too, and I didn’t know if it was true or not,” Flair said last week.
“That would be cool as hell. I would love to do it.”

FINAL THOUGHT

WOOO! I hope WWE allows Flair to induct Steve Austin. As I stated before, It would be weird to see Flair back in the Hall of Fame, after being inducted last year.

But hell, those 2 icons together would draw alot of fans -- and cash.

Stone Cold in the Hall of Fame Update #3

Word has gotten out that Steve Austin has chosen who he wants to induct him into the Hall of Fame.

Surprisingly, Its not Jim Ross.


THE NATURE BOY AND THE RATTLESNAKE

WWE assumed that Jim Ross would be the perfect person to induct Austin into the Hall of Fame, but Austin had other ideas.

Austin has been pushing heavily for Ric Flair to induct him instead.

Company officials are not pleased with Austin's request because they have a "you're either with us or against us" attitude. They see Flair as a "outsider" and "not on board" with them any more.

HALL OF FRAUD

A similar situation happened two years when Jerry "The King" Lawler wanted legendary Memphis announcer Lance Russell to induct him into the WWE Hall of Fame. Officials refused Lawler's request and opted to have William Shatner induct him into the Hall of Fame instead for press purposes.

FINAL THOUGHT

I hope they do decide to bring back Ric Flair. Then again, It would be strange to see him in the Hall of Fame arena, after only a year of he himself being inducted.
