WWE Hall of Famer “The Enforcer” Arn Anderson recently appeared on an episode of his ARN podcast, where he discussed a number of topics, including the 1995 lifeguard match between Randy Savage and Ric Flair at Bash at the Beach.
Anderson said, “I was probably overdressed, for me. I remember exactly what it was, what the outfit looked like… And it was just a souped-up lumberjack match with outfits, beach outfits. So it was what it was.”
On Ric Flair quitting as the booker of WCW in 1995:
“Well, Flair, pretty much quit, to be honest with you. Ric wanted to wrestle as the World Champion and be Ric Flair. He didn’t want to… sit down and be the booker. I don’t think that was what he aspired to do. As a matter of fact, I know he didn’t. And it was just too time-consuming, he was having to deal with all the headaches with the guys. You know, he was great at booking himself as a world champion, he had no other competition where that was concerned. But to now be the booker and have to book two, three shows, figure out talent, angles, all that, I just that’s not what he signed up for.”
