Former Four Horsemen member rips Ric Flair, turned down WWE's offer to be involved in Monday's tribute

Ole Anderson rejected an opportunity to take part in the Ric Flair tribute on Monday's Raw. "They were going to give me $1,500 to come down and tape me (for the Four Horseman video commentary) in my house," Anderson told Pat McNeill of PWTorch.com. regarding the Four Horsemen video. "I just turned down a deal too. In fact, this weekend I was supposed to go to Orlando. They wanted me to go to Orlando and I wouldn't go."
Later in the interview, Anderson put down Flair's in-ring ability. "He ended up having the same match every night..." Anderson said. "He had a lot of potential to begin with, but he's never had anything different than the same damn match every night... The point is he still doesn't have any idea how to have a match work. So they gave him credit for the last match here in Orlando. Wonderful. I hope it is. It'll be the same as it always was. Tell the match the other night was different than any other match he's ever had. He always does the same damn dumb things."
Powell's POV: Well, that's it. I think WWE should hold a ceremony this Monday in which all the wrestlers take back every positive word they said about Flair now that Ole has pointed out that the so-called greatest wrestler of all-time doesn't know how to work a match. Oh, and he also said Flair hasn't drawn a dime in the last 10-15 years.
Seriously, this interview is an instant classic for all the wrong reasons. Ole is not a happy man. He predicts that Flair's wife will leave him once he runs out of money, and doesn't have anything positive to say about today's product. The audio is available in the Torch's VIP section.
