In the long and storied history of the F.A.N. forum there have been threads that have taken a life of their own just because of how strange, outlandish and hilarious they are. Among them is the If Kane ended Ric Flair’s career thread started by xcv on January 19, 2008.
This is easily one of the more legendary threads in the long and storied history of the forum. It all began with the first post by xcv when the following was typed. “It could go like this Kane and Ric Flair start the match out normally, and Kane defeats Ric Flair. After that Kane removes Ric Flair’s trunks and books (Ric could have underwear under the trunks), then Kane gives Flair some normal business clothes to put on, then Kane burns Flair’s robes, trunks, and boots in a metal barrel. Sound like an idea?”
The bulk of the thread consists other strange ways Flair’s career could be ended by other wrestlers, general confusion as to what the purpose of Kane turning Flair’s clothing and giving him a suit would serve and ways to improve upon the original idea.
This thread will cause much alugter to those who choose to revisit this gem from 2008. The If Kane ended Ric Flair’s career thread is archived at the F.A.N. forum and can be found here.
