Flair is a wrestling GAWD! And GAWD's do what they want...
He should be at the HOF, TNA should allow it, and both sides should just relax and let it be about one of the greatest performers of all time and one of the most recognizable and HOF deserving stables in the history of the business.

I guess that means they can't air the Horsemen induction on the USA Network special. TNA might have a fit otherwise.
It's funny, the day before they announced Flair was getting another induction, I had made the conscious decision to not attend the HOF this year, even though I'll be at WM. I attended back in 2008, strictly for Flair, but that was when they didn't adhere to time limits, and Flair spoke well into the slated rebroadcast time. The next year, everything changed, and I didn't think the event was as special. Oh well.

I just dont like the point of someone going in the twice - just means that guys like Arn Anderson, Owen Hart, Bret Hart, Tully etc. Would have to be in twice or as many times. 2 times just seems weird for HoF. -I see all those guys being at WM and interfering in the 12 man match!

Good news, but I most likely won't be watching it until the DVD comes out with Mania. I hate how they heavily edit the speeches on USA. As for Flair, I'm sure TNA will have him sign something in writing to cover their asses on what they're allowing him to do/not do.

I think if they show him on camera then it should say "TNA wrestler Ric Flair". I know it won't, and that would never happen, but to me its just like someone from a sports team attending. "New England Patriot Tom Brady". If their going to use his name and show him, then they should recognize the company that he's currently a household name of. I don't like it anymore than the WWE, but that's just business IMO.

I read this and I thought of something. IMO they should have kept Ric Flair's appearance in the HOF ceremony a secret.
Then, at the ceremony, after Dusty Rhodes makes his speech about what a great stable the Four Horsemen were and introduces him, they play the Horsemen theme and Barry, Arn, Tully and JJ comes out without Flair. They say nothing about Flair not being there and they make their speech about being inducted into the hall of fame. Then, when they finish, Ric Flair's theme plays and then Ric Flair comes out. Imagine the pop he'll get if they do that.

I bet the crowd starts a Please come back chant at the ceremony, he will comment on it, and TNA will make a big deal about it.

TNA is plugging it on their Facebook, so it doesn't look like they care too much.

TNA will do what they've done for years and use this as a way to ride WWE's coat-tails. That's what joke companies do.
