Many wrestling fans were hopeful that Ric Flair's match against Shawn Michaels would be the final match to close out last night's WrestleMania XXIV. It turns out that Flair was offered the main event spot but turned it down.

There was a pitch made by a creative team member to have the final shot of WrestleMania be a spotlight on Flair's boots and robe. However, Flair strongly disagreed with those sentiments when the idea was brought up to him during a press conference held prior to the WWE Hall of Fame convention.

Flair told reporters that nothing is more important than the title belts and insisted that his match with Michaels did not belong in the main event position.

What a class act

Flair should've been world heavyweight champion going into mania and losing it to taker.

did the undertaker keep his perfect wrestlemania record?

Anyone else notice the last 3 wrestlemania main events have ended by submission? Kinda lame if you ask me.

Cena makes hhh tap 2006
Cena makes hbk tap 2007
Taker makes edge tap 2008

I liked the finish to Taker & Edge's match.
