I was wondering if it would be possible to have Ric Flair at this years Night Of Legends? Since he going to be at this months IWC show, would it be possible for NOL 2009?

I'm going to venture that'd be a no... but anything's possible.

that will never happen. I wouldnt want to see Flair at Night of The Legends because even though its nice to see all those legends you grew up watching, the legends are so beat up they can barely walk nor put on a good match. Its sad but i wouldnt want flair to degrade himself like that by being at such a sad horrible show. Its much better to see him at a regular iwc show where the wrestling is actually good and wrestlers dont charge you 20bucks to take there picture unlike the washed up legends. Sorry if i sound like an itiot but night of legends 08 was such a horrible experience. Most of the legendary wrestlers at the show that i loved as a kid i hated after meeting because they were not nice at all.

Since we have Ric Saturday, I would think it wouldnt make sense to have him back so soon.
So far confirmed are:
Jerry "The King" Lawler Hacksaw Jim Duggan Jimmy "Superly" Snuka
Thanks

I thought the show was great and I could not believe there was that many legends in one place at the same time. What do you expect from retired wrestlers who's bodies are beat and torn up from the years of work they put in to make money and entertain us? They were all probably a little bitter because they have to come to the reality that they are not wrestling in big arena's anymore. They all miss it. They all deserve the extra money for the pictures because of all the matches they went through to entertain us. If someone didn't want to pay the money to them, they probably feel it isn't even worth it for them to bend down, sign an autograph and take a picture. Maybe they only want to sign for the fans who really like them and admire them. I wouldve like to have everyone's autograph who wrestled taht night, but I didnt pay for each one cause certain wrestlers weren't worth the money to me because I was too young or just didnt care for them as much. If you truly idolize the wrestler and look at them as a legend, I would think that you would want to show some respect and want them to have the money. If you don't, then why would you want they're picture anyway?

If you truly idolize the wrestler and look at them as a legend, I would think that you would want to show some respect and want them to have the money. If you don't, then why would you want they're picture anyway? I don't believe its as simple as that. Yes, they tore up their bodies. However, most of them were paid fairly well to do so. Several wrestlers have use the argument that "the fans paid to see the wrestlers wrestle and thats what they got" as why the fans shouldn't expect an autograph or picture if they run into to a wrestler. I feel the same logic applies here. I respect Ric Flair for what he's done and I am a fan. However I don't feel paying more then double the going rate for what his autograph sells for is worth the price.($50) The toll his body has taken should not apply into the equation. I feel the term Meet & Greet is a bit of a mis-no-mer here because If most fans won't exchange twelve words with him because the lines are so long. This doesn't really apply to the Legends, However I know some fans want autographs and pictures with wrestlers just as a souvenir of the show.

Thats fine N~Con, I was just wondering if was possible or not. I am very happy to hear that Jerry "The King" Lawler, Hacksaw Jim Duggan, and Jimmy "Superly" Snuka will be there! I have never met Hacksaw before! And I am a big fan of The King's, so that sounds great to me!
