Had an incredibly fun run in 1991-93. Still entertaining to an extent today, although he probably shouldn't even be around today. Kane's career, like Big Show's, has been way too inconsistent.

Kane is pretty fucking decent when he wants to be, but he's been saddled with so much crap through the years that he's never consistently in anything good. Flair's segments in the company never made me embarrassed to watch wrestling, and the 1991-1993 run, while the matches were a little too overbooked for my liking, was fun and made a splash. Imagine the company in 1992 without him.

Time to ruffle some feathers. Kane is a good, good worker for a big man. People forget that Kane has been in WWE for a decade now, between Kane, Fake Diesel, and Issac Yankem. Ric Flair had a great year in 1992, but he had his best years in other promotions.

Two years of Flair over a decade of Kane/Yankem/Fake Diesel? You bet.

It has to be Flair. Hell, just for the '92 Rumble alone. That's more than Kane will ever do.

Ric's WWF Tenure: The '92 Rumble, house show matches with Hogan that drew big box office, fun promos, match with Savage at WM 8.

 

Kane's tenure: Burning Undertaker alive in a casket, leading to an Inferno Match, accused of fucking a corpse, fucks Lita (which is pretty much the same) and forces her to marry him, though she eventually warms up to the idea; baby is forcibly aborted, beats up goofy guy named Gene and then chases around Trish Stratus.

 

Flair wins.

Ric had a great run from 1991 to 1993 then has done well in his position since coming back in 2001.

 

Kane's had longevity in the company but can't compare on workrate, promos, or the ability to get over at his position on the card.

Flair. He was the central figure during one of my favorite times in wrestling.
