The world of professional wrestling has seen so many historical characters. When it comes to the greatest of all time (GOAT) conversation, one could nominate several names.
Names such as The Rock, Stone Cold Steve Austin, Hulk Hogan, Ric Flair, and John Cena come to mind. Steve Austin recently gave his pick for who he believes is the greatest of all time – and it’s not himself. While Austin would have a great argument for being the GOAT, he believes that moniker belongs to Ric Flair.
Flair is a two-time WWE Hall Of Famer and 16-time World Champion. A fan on Twitter recently shared a GIF of Austin and Flair, tagging Austin in the post. Austin replied and said “Flair is the GOAT. And that’s the bottom line.”:

A fan responded to Austin’s claim, suggesting that Andre The Giant should instead be considered the GOAT. Austin rebutted and said that “Anybody that actually knows the business knows Flair is the GOAT”:
No comparison, bro. Andre was a great star. Important for the business. Anybody that actually knows the business knows Flair is the GOAT. That is all.
