Now this is my favorite Ric Flair. The biggest face in the Mid Atlantic. Before the Horseman when he would just go out and beat every opponent they put in front of him down. The best in the game bar none. Not Hogan, not Backlund, not Steamboat, not Bockwinkel, not Inoki, not ever Race. Ric Flair whoooo!

This was when wrestling was AWESOME. McMahon sold it all out for cash. SAD.

Look at that background!

to be the man you must beat the man and flair is the man

Vince Sr started a talent sharing agreement

in the 70's with the NWA to preventEddie Einhorn's promotion from going deeper into the WWF . Harley Race defended the belt in MSG against Rhodes and Backlund. The WWF recognized the NWA belt as a world title along with their own version.

@Darkchyld702 show me a shread of real evidence that wwf was officially part of the nwa.

[Darkchyld702]

@domamania You like beating a dead horse I see. No one said they were the same company. And it made no difference where they were, if you were an NWA promotion you listed your promotions champion underneath the NWA champion. These were WWF billboards. The WWF was part of the NWA and listed it's champion as the world champion just as every other territory in the NWA did.

@Darkchyld702  but the nwa and wwe were different comanies period, plus its depended on where the bill bord sign were. if it were in the noth then they would put wwf, but in the south nwa.

[Darkchyld702]

@domamania I never said they were the same company. I just stated, accurately, that the WWF (Titan Sports) was a part of the NWA until the 80's. This is fact. Even the promotional flyers in the late 70's / early 80's would list Bob Backlund as WWF Champion and Ric Flair as NWA WORLD Champion. The NWA champion always got top billing. Titan considered NWA champion Lou Thesz it's champion until a dispute and then gave their belt to the man Thesz defeated for the title "Nature Boy" Buddy Rogers.

Part 2) --- and Jessy Mcmahon gave the company to his son Vince Mcmahon Sr in 1956, then Mcmahon sr made it to WWWF in 1961 with Buddy Rogers as first Champion, then with bruno holding the title pretty much of the time of the 60s and 70s. Then in 1984 Vince sr Sold the company to Vince Jr and then on in until 2002 it was known as WWF.

@Darkchyld702 well i am not making that claim, i am just REstating what Bruno said in one of his interviews. Bruno Sammartino, was WORLD chapion in Canada with the wrestling organization from Toronto and WORLD chaMpion in the USA by the WWF. Your worng, Bruno defended the title in North America, South America, Asia, Europe, and Australia. With all to respect but NWA and WWF was two sperate companies one did not belong to the other. the WWF was known as capital wrestling owned by Jessy Mcmahon
