    The kryptonite for monster faces like Ultimate Warrior and Goldberg are cheating and duplicitous heels, because they can logically blindside the face, whilst still preserving the face's status as credible threats in their own right.

    Ric Flair just so happens to be the grandmaster of cheating and duplicitous heels. Add to that career accomplishments, drawing power, legacy, and Warrior has quite possibly the worst match-up he could have asked for in the first round.

    A prime late 80s early 90s Warrior vs a prime NWA Flair? This match would be very very hard to book. If we were to go by WWF booking at that time then Warrior would likely take the win. If we were to go NWA booking at that time then Warrior would likely never face Flair because IDK that Warrior could wrestle 60 min night in and night out.

    Warrior was pretty unstoppable in his prime run. Even beating the unbeatable Demi God Hogan at Wrestlemania. Flair would never be called unstoppable, however, he was the one constant in the NWA and every time a new face would come along and challenge Flair's superiority, Flair would put them back in their place. So in a one off match, no titles on the line, no stories to build towards, etc; I'd have to go with Flair. Flair was far and away the better professional wrestler and I believe Flair would find a way to take the Warrior down.

    Vote Flair.

    Ric Flair is for wrestling fans, Warrior is for casual fans. While Warrior was being watched on network television by ten million people and wrestling on WrestleMania in front of 60,000 people, Flair was wrestling on syndication and on Starrcade in front of 5,000 people. I can understand that Flair has won this and why, and I think most people who are devout wrestling fans would agree, but the fact remains that more people liked and watched Ultimate Warrior in the 80s than did Flair. There's only a year between the end of Warrior's WWF title reign and the start of Flairs, yet the audience was significantly diminished by the time Flair held it. That's not because of either man, but the fact remains.
