The rock would've sonned ric flair harder than scott Steiner did.:yeshrug:
:russ: Flair could more than hold his own in a promo with Rock. Childish insults wouldn't have been worse than all the ether Steiner served Flair with but it wouldve been close because hes a WCW alum and Vince wouldve really let Rock off the leash. Too bad we'll never know

The rock was on fiyah during 98.

Ric flair was so washed it was basically a running joke amongst wrestlers in the industry to son him.

X-pac even got him on the mic.:bryan:

X-pac has one memorable promo and thats the night after WM14, the cut the mustard promo. Flair only got sonned by Steiner, unless you got some promos where he got shytted on. This was FLAIR on the mic. He was great on the mic even in 98. Give him a live mic in the Attitude Era, no one was gonna son him. Crazy, fire me I'm already fired Ric . :wow:

Ultimate Warrior was suppose to come back in 98 or something

He had different plans.

Let's go to wcw for the rematch.:troll:

Honestly tho the ultimate warrior character would've had to have a major tweak.

The atmosphere was way too different in 98. That cartoonist antics the ultimate warrior was known for would've gotten clowned by the audience.:skip:

Flair, Perfect, and/or Macho could've had AMAZING runs in late '90s WWF.

Flair & Perfect could've easily done the Corporate Champion thing, and Macho UNLEASHED in the Attitude era... :whew:

Rock wasn't doing those type of promos until like late 2001.

1998 rock was pretty ruthless, but he would never do what Steiner did to flair. way too much respect for him.

if Flair came to WWF in 98, I could see him aligning with Austin to fight the Corporation. leading to Vince vs Flair at wrestlemania and rock vs austin.

honestly, it worked out for the best for the wwf that flair and hogan stayed in wcw in 98, along with hbk leaving. Austin and Rock needed that room to grow

Yup. I can't see Rock ripping Flair apart like he was capable of doing unless Flair took it there first.

Then again Rock liked/respected Hogan and he lit his ass up with extreme venom in 03
