Flair would be a tough card to stat for his prime. Was the figure 4 really a finisher? Flair himself has joked that he never beat anyone with it. As often as not, the opponent reversed it and Slick Ric took the damage. An accurate card would depict Flair as the dirtiest player in the game, winning by hook or by crook (DQ, interference, cheating).

I think the Legends team's early version of Flair would be about right. Sure Rhodes booking caused a lot of Flair dq's and countouts but then again how many wrestlers used random moves to finish off an opponent? (The majority of the time matches either end with something considered a finisher or some sort of roll up)

Managed by Jimmy Hart set would be cool . Honky Tonk Man refused Tom right at the start , I believe ? . I will start a fight you have NO John Tenta who played Earthquake or/and The Nasty Boys . The Briscoes I have two questions as a tag team were they faces or heels ? Then do I put them in my LWF or Anarchy in the UK Fed ? Honky Tonk would be a very difficult card to get right. We all know he sucked, but he was I-C Champ for sooooo long. How do you create a card that could actually do that without him looking way over-rated? It's kind of like Ric Flair: In the '80s, Flair would be a great card for when he didn't have a Belt because he wasn't going to lose until he had a Belt. Then, it would be DQ City because that's mostly what he did as Champ, especially with the NWA rule of an instant DQ for throwing a wrestler over the top rope, and with the rest of the Horsemen protecting him as Champ. Todd C WTIC First of all, how could the greatest intercontinental champion of all time suck? secondly, you could do a card that getS counted out or DQd a lot...AFTER winning a title.

I'm intrigued now since I don't have Mister Centra (sorry). It must be a fun mechanic though, I'm sure! Todd C WTIC

The Mister Centra mechanic when he is a champion is very cool. Unfortunately though I have never gotten to use it as Mister Centra (despite being one of my favorite COTG wrestlers and I see he has won a championship in the feds of other promoters) has never won a title yet in my Ring of Centra fed. There is also the defensive mechanic I wrote for the updated Matt Taven when he holds a championship and ironically that Taven card got released at the exact same time- Quarter 2 of 2019- as the Mister Centra card but I did not know about that since I am not involved in COTG products so it was just a coincidence and it is not the same mechanic anyway. For Taven, who had just won the ROH World Championship at the MSG card, the mechanic I wrote for him when he is a champion and on Level 3 Defense- thus when he is desperate- allows him when he holds a championship the possibility of giving the opponent a blatant low blow at 3 Add 1 dis or hit the opponent with a BELT SMASH which were things I had seen him do when he held earlier titles in Ring of Honor. I remember showing the mechanic on my rough draft the month before it got released to Chad Olson when we had dinner at Ellis Island one night before going to the Gold Coast for the start of the CAC and he told me he really liked it.
