#3 Ric Flair vs. Sting for the NWA Worlds Heavyweight Championship - Clash of the Champions 3/27/1988 (National Wrestling Alliance)

There might not be another performer in wrestling who has put on more time limit draws than Ric Flair. The term, "working a Broadway," came based on Flair's ability to work hour-long matches. Whether it be against Barry Windham or Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat, Flair has earned the moniker of "The 60-Minute Man."

Ric Flair has also helped establish quite a few wrestling superstars that he has faced in the squared circle. When fans think of those stars, Sting is usually at the top of their list. Their long-standing rivalry kicked off at the first Clash of the Champions in 1988.

The event took place on free television in direct competition with WrestleMania IV on pay-per-view. It was Sting's first high-profile contest of his wrestling career.

Despite it taking place in Greensboro, North Carolina, or should we say "Flair Country," the fans favored the Stinger and wanted to see the title change.

It was a well-wrestled encounter that saw Sting use his strength and speed to overcome the trademark face of the National Wrestling Alliance. Flair was a consummate ring general here and guided Sting to his best match to date. The two men showed the tremendous chemistry that made it one of the greatest feuds in WCW history.
