So now Ric Flair’s the bad guy and the immortal Hulk Hogan is leading other wrestlers to Jesus and literally got a message from Heaven from Rowdy Roddy Piper. How the worm has turned.

Both can be the bad guy

Though neither are the real Bad Guy, that’s Scott Hall

Hulk Hogan talking on Christian TV about briefly dying and going to Hell but it's just him retelling the time he met the Dungeon of Doom, complete with not hot water.

Andre the Giant was 815 lbs when I lifted him over my head at WM 3. So I know what it must have felt like for Jesus to carry that cross down that aisle, on his way to the ultimate retirement match, brother.

The Hulkster will try anything to get over. The Evangelical reformed sinner route makes perfect sense.

I guess the question is, what is he getting out of this? Is it for money, or is he just that consumed with own image? Like I don't see the money in this. It's not like he can launch his own weed gummy brand appearing on the 700 club.

He can probably get people to donate to a church, but does he see any of that? Is he selling Hulkser themed Christian paraphernalia now?

Given the Hulkster's pattern of behavior, it's fair to assume that he's looking to be the Top Draw (brother!)

I think about reading Flair's autobiography, published in 2002, when things seemed to be on an upswing into a long, slow, quiet trip into history. He talked about how his treatment in WCW once Bischoff came in slowly tore away at his confidence and basically rendered him a mass of self-doubt and other neurosis. It seemed like a story of troubles overcome, but in reality, it was just a warning sign that he was prone to such things, and what he needed was help.

But people like Ric Flair don't get help, and sadly he's fallen into a much deeper pit of such feelings. You do get the feeling from Flair recounting his darkest moments then that he wanted to die because he felt he had no worth. Now, with his horrible finances, three ruined marriages since the book was released, the loss of his son due to a drug overdose (and I'd bet money that Ric thinks that his son might have either been trying to escape his shadow or was trying his own version of 'stylin' and profilin' and unlike his father, the genetics didn't line up), his darn last match giving him a literal heart attack, I really have to wonder if he's subconsciously trying to kill himself and that he thinks that's the best solution; as Michael Jackson shows, death makes a lot of people forgive and forget your sins.

I fully admit I don't know an actual anything about the man Richard Fliehr (Edit: Not Felair, thank you Timby) and that all I'm doing is armchair psychology and theorizing. Can't help you with the rest, that's on you.

Also this talk about Jesus Wrestling makes me think of this Robot Chicken bit.

Bakabella's still active, even in a post-Chikara world. Wrestles the occasional comedy match, including one against Hornswoggle from a year or two ago. Two of the DevCorp guys still wrestle, but they're doing their own things.

Ric Flair issued a sort of apology but not apology to the restaraunt in Gainesville. He insists he wasn't drunk. He had "maybe two cocktails" and "michelob ultras" of an unspecified count...he cited his health issues with his intestines as the reason he got so upset about the bathroom thing. So he was fixin to poop and that's what made things so tense. Welp that's the story.
