Flair is a LEGEND. He has been through all of wrestling's phases....he was big in NWA, WCW, and briefly in WWF.
Bret Hart will always be one of my favorites but his career at the top was only under 10 years long and in one federation....as ECOSE said he was good in the ring but he wasn't very good on the mic, Flair had it all...
I grew up watching Bret Hart so that was my era but I have to disagree that he is superior.
these 2 always had hate for each other, I believe one or the other had already badmouthed em in their book, I think it was Flair.
