- A factoid about this theme. Garvin’s theme he walked out to on the PPV was Frank Stallone’s “Far From Over.” For copyright reasons, it was dubbed over with Eddie Gilbert’s theme on the VHS release.
Nobody will ever walk that isle like ric flair he just oozed greatness.
Absolute truth
HHH & Harley Race too! Roman for the modern day 🤷♂️
I love how he has this unconcerned look on his face like, "Yep, this is what awesomeness looks like. You're welcome."
Aisle. It's not surrounded by water.
@davidmurray6949 Yea don't ever compare Roman Reigns to Ric Flair😂
Loved this version of Flair's theme.
Greatest marketer in sports history.
There’s only one version genius
@@TheLuscious You might want to do a better search of that.
naw too generic original is fiya
This version used from 87 to 90?
this was that real shit i miss the nwa
I agree this is when wrestling was wrestling
Well the NWA still exists, but obviously it's not the same as it was back then. This is before my time, but I love watching old school NWA and WCW. Much better than the current WWE product.
he was at the apex of confidence/swag/ability
“All the Confidence, All the Ability” - Woooo
This brings chills down my back the goat greatest of all time charisma athleticism nature boy Ric flair that's all I can say
I miss that 80's vibe
Love Garvin’s entrance too. Some insane cowbell
If you've never witnessed a Ric Flair entrance live as a wrestling fan. You missed out, it was something to behold. But what the hell was up with the 70's porn music that Garvin came in on. Lmmfao 😂😂
His shit bang
Hahahaha!!!!
Nah Garvin intro Hard asl
Shit sound like an 80s infomercial for a workout VHS tape
😂😂@@strnglhld
Bigger than life, he played his role well!
Garvin’s music rockin’ that cowbell
Simply the GOAT
Just recently watched this match and wow the chops from both men were insane
There will never ever ever be another ric flair wwooo
This is my answer when Stone Cold asks me what my favorite match is.
Greatest match of all time
Dorton Arena Raleigh, NC.....WOOOOOOO!!
Look at Flairs demeanor and body language. He's walking that aisle like he's about to fight in a cage. No hot dogging, no showboating. He was all business, and he was ready to throw down. His walk to the ring at the Rumble was the same, like he was in for a night of it. Flair made small adjustments to suit the circumstances, and because he was such a natural he made it look easy.
If you have any interest in Wrestling outside of what Vince spoonfed us, Flair is on Mount Rushmore.
Golden age of wrestling
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I miss the old NWA ...
You got your Ronnie Garvin in my Ric Flair entrance...
I was there! 13 years old with my friend and my dad! Amazing! Never forget that.
THE GOAT!
Ric Flair was like Elvis Presley was to Rock and Roll
To
Watching this guy, who’s Elvis?
Mustafa, didn’t steal shit. If it hadn’t been for Elvis Little Richard and Chuck Berry would have starved to death.
And both had the same entrance music lol
This is probably the most accurate description of who Ric Flair was to the average non-wrestling fan.
Rick flair is the blacks man savior lol everybody hood wanted to be flashy like pretty boi RICK FLAIR WOOOHHHOOOOO
Didnt know hood people watched wrestling
@@TheIcpfan23 lol yupp and ric flair was the man of the hood lmao...flashy asf...
@@TheIcpfan23 you didn’t see the migos make the ric flair flexin
The greatest of all time. 16 time world champion.
Woooooooooo!!!!
Wooooooo!!
Hearing garvin theme brought me back to the porn theme I found on that VHs with the title tape ripped off that I popped in thinking it was Home Alone
Good old days when Kayfabe still existed and wrestlers were wrestlers
The 80's was such a weird time for humanity! The styles, hairdos, cars, music, etc.
Flair's electronicy theme was cool though!👍
Flairs theme.is a classic music piece..beethoven I think, it's definitely in 2001 space odyssey, another classic!
Cigarette commercials.
Only thing was missing was ME! Fuck this new world
This is the NWA folks we WRESTLE!
The nature boy how I was introduced and love wrestling at his finest
Flair was the fucking man, man
it not going to get no better this was wrestling this that real shit
The greatest entrance of all time for wrestling. To be the man, you've got to beat the man. Wooooooooo! What's causing all this?
i love flair he was.the man
*ICONIC!*
Im glad im not the only that think Garvins entrance theme was an absolute banger
Agreed. Altho there’s a factoid about this theme. Garvin’s theme he walked out to on the PPV was Frank Stallone’s “Far From Over.” For copyright reasons, it was dubbed over with Eddie Gilbert’s theme on the VHS release. IMO, this theme sounds light years better.
Was wondering if Garvin's theme was a dub i.e. WWE Network, and turns out yes and by the NWA or their publishing company themselves. It is a great tune though. For those who don't know, it's called “Boys Toys”.
Just badass
I recall this fight was pretty Brutal.....Garvin gave flair a real run for his money.
Nobody does it better!!!!!
Classic 80’s theme music!
slick rick
The nature boy!!
Best version of Ric’s intro imo
What a great time for entertainment
Probably the only time Garvin headlined Flair.
No it wasn't
When you a Rockstar with out a guitar.WHOOOO
Man this was his best ever walk I love it.
*"-THE Most Beautiful World Title Ever Created Being Carried By The Greatest Player Who Has Given Sports Entertainment Simply Woooooooo.*
Greatest of All time
Was Randy Savage WWF's version of Ric Flair back in the day? Remember Savage used to have the same type of glittery robes and epic royal entrance music.
No. Savage was always nuts, paranoid and crazy. Flair and Savage couldn’t have been more opposite each other. That’s part of the reason they worked well together because opposites attract. The WWF’s answer to Flair before he showed up would have been The million dollar man Ted Dibiase. He was rich, flamboyant, flew in jets, rubbed shoulders with the elite, bought his own title, etc.
Wie sagte bretthart immer so schön er war der beste er ist der beste und er wird immer der beste bleiben aber das war wirklich der beste Woooooooooooo
God amongst men 🙏
That's an entrance. Whooooooo
Ric flair is the 🐐
Wrestling royalty :O
niceeee
Woooooooooooooooo
Wooooooo!!
Wish I could find this version of his theme

@@rscotta831 I think he meant the variant of Ric Flair's Zarathustra being used.
👑💙RF
I was born that year in 5th of February, it was a natural birth, guese im.a nature boy too
Original Music is from 2001 : A space odyseyy movie opening scene.
Rics loves playing the heel but he knows the fans love him so it’s not a full heel as much as he claims to this say still!! Happy belated 73rd nachhhhhhhaaaaaa boiiii…. Wo0000Ooo0ooO⭐️🤼♂️
That's not the only helicopter he was riding.
never knew ron had music
I didn't either, and whatever he did walk out to was replaced with that canned music
👑
WOOO
I see where hunter got his inspiration from
I never knew Garvin held the "Big Gold Belt"
Yeah. Unfortunately while he was the perfect guy to use as an interim champ (and that was the sole reason he got the belt: to lose it back and give some juice to the Starrcade main event since they didn’t have any hot and/or new programs to plug Flair into for the show - remember that they’d already had him face Dusty, Dusty again, and Nikita at the last 3 starrcades. Couldn’t run those matches again.), it was also what hurt the credibility of his reign.
Garvin was a legit contender, but at the same time seen as just below the A List guys. It’s not a great analogy since the WWF had a different philosophy on faces vs heels as champs, and the general lack of blood feud heat in their feuds, but best I could put it is it would be like putting the belt on Tito Santana or Brutus the Barber Beefcake for a couple months. Good for a shock and sets up an obvious rematch, but just doesn’t quite have that credibility.
Of course, JCP chose Garvin because he had fantastic matches every time out with Ric, and he was credible enough. But they also chose him because they didn’t want to have one of their more top faces (e.g., Ricky Morton or Barry Windham) look like a chump by jobbing the belt back so quickly. Garvin was at the tail end of his career and had hit his peak already. They didn’t have anything greater they were saving him for.
For the same reason, Garvin made very few defenses for the reason that the two options based on the tried and true booking philosophy of the era were either to have him cleanly defeat top heels they had other plans for, or piss off fans with DQ and count out finishes.
@@peterp2153 i Know that Magnum T A was eventually supposed to win the title but then he got hurt in that automobile accident that ended his career.

@@peterp2153Also, Dusty Rhodes refused to book Ron because he was jealous of him.
What is this version of flair's theme called?
I've searched for years for this specific version ... I'm beginning to think that it's from an old LP/Vinyl at an obscure production library.
chunkz1187 right ... thats the “song” but it’s not this specific version ... which is what I’m looking for.
This version sounds better than today’s version of Ric Flair theme
Sandstorm
The WOOOOO edition
I was 6 so I don't think I ever saw this in upstate ny
So flair getting the baby pop, when be suppose to be heel, uwf talent didnt get pushed much, and Road warriors didnt get straps in Chicago (out of all places) how is Starrcade 87 isnt the beginning of the end of Jim crockett promotions
UWF was obtained on 4/9/87. How were they supposed to get over the NWA roster in that short period of time? It was the equivalent of minor leaguers moving into the majors. In 10 short months, Sting got the next major push after Ronnie Garvin. What more could the UWF ask for? The excuse you’re searching for is well documented. Too much excess spending i.e. the private jet + holding Starrcade 87 outside their footprint + Vince threatening cable companies. Despite Flair’s very best promos for it in his entire career, it was a financial disaster. If the Crocketts had held Starrcade 87 in the Carolinas, they would have lasted much longer. They figured this out with Clash of the Champions, but the financial damage was done by then. If anything, the Road Warriors in Chicago should have elevated sales, but it didn't matter. The outcome of their match was completely irrelevant.
Real wrestling
Was Ronnie Garvin not a great wrestler?I had no idea about this wrestler
The NWA wanted a wrestler to be a transitional champion. They wanted somebody to beat Flair so he could win the world title back at Starrcade. Several wrestlers such as Barry Windham did not want to be a transitional champion for Flair. Ronnie Garvin was in his forties at the time and felt that this was going to be his only chance to be a world champion so he did the honors for Flair.
@@1981CrueHead thanks
Garvin was a pretty good worker and Flair truly loved working with him, but the guy had no personality and the fans were never in love with him both as a character and as a wrestler. Perfect midcard guy, but not a main-event player. At the time, Hogan was the hero of the wrestling world and the definition of a larger than life character, in comparison to him Garvin looked like a chump having no business being there in the first place. It looked extremely weak compared to what the WWF was doing at the time, particularly when Garvin barely did any appearances to plug the event in the first place. Bad call by the promotion, and it didn't do any good to their finances.
@@1981CrueHead Jimmy Garvin would have been the best candidate considering he was a candidate and feuded with Flair that summer
@@jonathanturbide2232 But Garvin was a nice story in terms of a hard working regular guy winning a title as it would have been had Arn Anderson won in 1993 or Eric Young winning the TNA world title.
Classic wrasslin Woooooooooooooo
This version of space odyssey is the best
80s wrestling was the best ..wwf and bringing hogan to wcw was the beg of d end for wcw
Was this at the Omni in Atlanta?
Chicago
Garvin's music sounds like Hall and oates
Kiss stealing wheeling dealing jet flying son of a gun WHOOOOOO!
anybody have the flair version without the crowd noise?
Doesn’t exist. At least not at Starrcade 87.
Dang. I was somewhere being born
This is an NWA
Enjoy working the music at this show for JCP but lousy how won flair the championship for #5
What's the title of Ronnie Garvin's entrance music? I've been wanting know for a long time. BTW it has a damn good cowbell.
It was a generic production theme used to dub out the original music used during the live broadcast, which was "Far From Over". This would later become Eddie Gilbert's theme too.
steve martin boys toys
@@bigvic6551 Thank you very much for your help. BTW here's the link to the full song: ruclips.net/video/JUto4JhmAiQ/видео.html
Better than wwe garbage today
and by the next year garvin was fighting greg gagne in superclash 3... he should of never been in the ring vs ric flair.
Shut up you mark.
They're matches were some of the most intense ever, bar none.
To me Ric flair was better then Dusty Rhodes. Rhodes came to WWE before Flair in the early 1990s and did not win the WWE belt. Ric Flair came to WWE in late 1991 and by royal Rumble 1992 he was WWE champ.
When Charlotte flair came to WWE. She became popular so quick winning titles. And look at Cody he just won the WWE belt after all this time what that tells you.
I'm a flair fan for life.
@Keith Nain Cigarette commercials.
Great match but terrible decision by Crockett to move Starrcade location from the south to Chicago..I know the fans in Chicago that night where cheering for Flair even thoiugh he was the heel.
zoomed in...
Was this really his theme song??!
It sound pretty fly tho whether ppl think it fits him or not....somehow it works for him I feel like it does
Yes
Great booking having your top heel come out in a smart town against a mid-carder World Champion.
Valid...but who else were they gonna run out there? Duttay was in the Luger feud. Magnum T.A. was done. Nikita and Ric had wrestled the year before and Flair had wrestled Duttay back to back in 84 and 85. Sting was too green. Who else? Maybe Barry Windham...but let's be honest, the fans in Chicago would've reacted the same way to a Flair/Windham title match.
@@manuginobilisbaldspot424 Windham was ready at that point, but they leapfrogged everyone over him. Trust, the fans would have been behind Barry.
Ronnie Garvin was the only one willing. No one wanted to be a lame duck champ or whatever. I do wish Barry would've done it, but him joining the Horsemen 5 months later would make no sense.
@@ericjackson7632 Honestly I think the Windham heel turn would have made perfect sense. do you remember when he turned against Luger, how JJ could be heard at ringside saying 'I told you , I told you he wouldn't be there for you'. in retrospect this would have made perfect sense that he was in contact with Windham after the title loss and was letting him know that he was indeed Horseman caliber. I always thought in hindsight they should have switched the 2 matches having Windham win the title for 2 months and face Flair and have Garvin challenge Dr. Death for the UWF title at Starrcade.
@@ExtinctionLevelEvent71 I mean Windham being in the Garvin role only the join the Horsemen 5 months later would've made no sense.
man this make me wont to cry because wrestling is a joke now
0:19 el mexicano infiltrado
For some reason the video stops at 0:51 and won't go forward.
Works fine on my end. Try a different device and/or network.
Danimal1177 that’s you only.
I'm pretty sure Flair's entrance music is a modern overdub with fake crowd noise to get around copyright issues.
This is an official VHS tape. Flair’s entrance music remained unchanged from the PPV. Garvin’s entrance music was changed.
No, that was the real music and real crowd noise.
Ronnie Garvin would have had been better off coming to the ring with no tunes. That crap sucked. Why did they even put the belt on him after giving him zero push??
Man you could be the worse wrestler and have ric flairs theme and people would be cheering for you lol
