Ricky Steamboat and Ric Flair had one of the most epic rivalries in sports entertainment, effectively carrying the fledgling World Championship Wrestling on their shoulders after Ted Turner bought and re-named Jim Crockett Productions.

And who can forget his Wrestlemania III classic against Macho Man Randy Savage? The two men stole the show by putting on a much better match than the main event between a half-crippled Andre and over-bulked Hulk Hogan.

But time makes fools of us all, and the last time Ricky Steamboat was in a WWE ring it didn't end well for him—in kayfabe or real life. Ricky suffered a possible heart attack after taking a beat down, and with a serious back injury that ended his career, there's no chance of a return.
