The 10 best Starrcade matches ever

#9 Ric Flair vs Lex Luger (NWA World Heavyweight Championship) – Starrcade '88

In early 1988, Luger had left the Four Horsemen, putting him in direct competition with Ric Flair. They had a match at the Great American Bash, which ended due to Luger's excessive blood loss; consequently, a rematch was set for Starrcade.

The match saw Flair use all of the dirty tricks in his arsenal to target the left leg of Luger and it played into the finish as Luger applied the Torture Rack only for his legs to buckle, allowing Flair to get the pin with the assistance of the ropes.

Ric Flair had an innate ability to get the best out of any opponent and that was evident here. Luger was not a wrestler that was well known for his wrestling prowess but Flair made him look like a million bucks. This was probably the best singles match of Luger's career.
