Flair's "ceremony" after Raw went off air

After Raw went off air, a familiar bell tolled. The lights went out, wrestlers parted the aisle, and out came the Undertaker. He made his signature entrance, taking off the hat and coat. Taker and Flair then hugged as Taker whispered some things in his ear, and then he fell on one knee, doing his signature pose to salute Flair.

Next one to come out was Vince McMahon, who entered the ring with a big smile, and also hugged Flair. He then held up Flair's hand in victory.

Flair then invited his family back into the ring and did his trademark strut, took off his jacket and did an elbow and a knee on it. He then asked the cameraman to zoom in on his new golden watch, that he had gotten as a retirement gift.

Flair took the microphone and gave the fans one last "Thank You", as he walked down an aisle of WWE wrestlers and officials, shaking several hands and hugging tearful admirers, among which Stephanie McMahon. Flair blew one more kiss to the audience, to disappear behind the curtain for the last time.

   That was great, I wish they would've showed it all on camera. I love when all the wrestlers come out of character for once just to show respect, it shows that Vince still has a heart and respect.
