    I lived in Atlanta after Herd but before AOL Time Warner took over. I had numerous friends that worked for Turner Broadcasting and pretty much every one of them hated it. It was more or a less a stopgap to make some money, develop some connections and then use that to work somewhere else or start your own company (usually in advertising).
    You basically had to know somebody to get a job there and from there accounts, a lot of kooks worked there. Herd basically got the job thru a friend so it didn't surprise me he got the job when he knew nothing about pro wrestling.

      They were no longer a part of the WWF when Flair went there in ‘91.

    Flair should have left in 88 during the sale, timing would have been better. Of course, if he'd known that Arn, Tully, JJ, Dusty, and Windham would ALL leave for the WWF within the next year, he may have. By the time he was feuding with Steamboat, Ric had to be looking around going, "where'd everyone go?"😆

      Good point. I always felt 89 was odd as so many NWA guys came to WWF. You can also throw in Ronnie Garvin and Tony Schavione who also came up north.

      Yep they really screwed flair over. Ric even found out later that Turner wouldn't buy the wrestling company unless Ric flair was in it. Which meant flair should have been making a lot more money than the 750k he was making. Vince wanted him to come to the wwf in 88 and fight randy savage at the first summerslam.

    Personally I always wanted to see Flair work a televangelist gimmick. Think about it. The hair, the money, the fancy suits, the yelling, sweating and dancing. He's 90% there already. 😄

    The biggest mistake of Jim Herd's career was letting Ric walk that Summer in 91. The Great American Bash was a disaster.

    Herd managed to run Flair, The Road Warriors, Jim Cornette and The Midnight Express out of the company. Not the smartest move.

    Herd wanted Flair to lose his hair and lose his theme: "Also sprach Zarathustra". In favor for Spartacus and the "Charge" theme.
