Rick Flair just dropped the wrestling legend’s personal Mount Rushmore, and yeah, he didn’t even do that.
In an episode of Busted Open Master’s Class, Flair revealed who he thinks has changed the game. “I think Sean Michaels is the greatest worker in business history. I’ll go with Sean, Undertaker, Steve Austin and the Hulk.” Flare said.
There’s no hesitation. There is no sugar coating. Flare gave it straight: Sean Michaels, the ultimate in-ring engineer. Undertaker, the man who ruled for decades. “Stone Cold” Steve Austin’s face in the era of his attitude that made TV a must-see for WWE. Hulk Hogan, the man who turned wrestling into a global phenomenon.
The crazy part? Flare didn’t put herself on the list. A complete flexion of humility – or maybe it shows how big the other four were. Either way, Flair’s picks are a straightforward reminder of who truly ran the world of wrestling.
