Jim Ross On Whether Ric Flair Deserves Credit As WCW’s Head Booker

During a recent episode of his podcast Grilling JR, Jim Ross discussed Ric Flair’s time as a booker for WCW and if he deserves credit for WCW’s Success. 

Here’s what he had to say: 

“He made good decisions, but he had Cornette on that committee who was brilliant, Sullivan had a great mind, Terry Funk had a great mind, I don’t know why I was there but nonetheless, he had a good cabinet, shall we say, and the role of a good assistant coach is to support the head coach, and I think we all tried to do that because we all loved Ric, all had a great respect for Ric, and that’s what alienated guys like Cornette to have such a hard on at Jim Herd.”

 

“It was a built in calamity, it was crazy. But Ric did a good job, but Ric is not the hands on guy, the detail guy that Cornette would be, or I would be, for example. Breaking my arm patting myself on the back. That was part of our nature. But Funk had great ideas, Sullivan had good ideas, Eddie Gilbert is always an idea.”
