For a guy who's not very big he's certainly had more than his fair share of titles but i've never been a fan.
What do you think?????????

He's one of the best wrestlers of all time, and while I still rank a few better than him, Flair's definitely near the top of the list. Amazing in the ring, amazing on the mic, just an all-around amazing wrestler, and the fact that he still wrestles is fairly applaudable.
That being said, Flair was good in terms of technical skills, but they have been way better technical wrestlers to hit the ring. Angle, Benoit, etc., Flair had technical skills, but nowhere near some other wrestlers.

Flair has been a decent wrestler through his storied career, certainly more technically gifted than Hogan, but so are about 8,000 other wrestlers.
But the most technically gifted? I don't think so. I can name several wrestlers who are/were more technically gifted than Flair...
Bret Hart
Owen Hart
Chris Benoit
Eddie Guerrero
Lance Storm
Chris Jericho
Kurt Angle
Dean Malenko

He is the Man!! There is nobody who was better than Slick Ric in his prime. His numerous titles all around the world proves it. Besides when he and Hogan was the big champions, HH would only defend his title about once every 3 weeks. Ric would defend 3-5 times a week all over the world.
When you put him with the rest of the Horsemen, there was no dirtier player than him.

I know I'm going to get a few thumbs down for this, but I'll say it anyway.
Flair was a great wrestler, and is without question one of the all-timers...but to say he was one of the most techichally gifted of all time is a bit of an overstatement.
I feel that there are at least a 10-20 wrestlers are superior to him in that regard.

The HitMan is still King. All articles promoting other people than Bret Hart, are manipulated by the promoters of the WWF. Big Fallout between the two. Thats my opinion.

There is no bigger Flair fan than me (other than his self) and he was not even the best technical wrestler in the horsemen. Blanchard, Malenko, Benoit all come to mind.

He's a good entertainer, but "most technically gifted" wrestler of all time, that's a stretch.

I'd say the Dynamite Kid, he is the standard by which all technical wrestlers ever since have always been judged.
