"The Nature Boy" Ric Flair is the greatest wrestler of all time. That is a fact. Anyone who disputes that fact obviously doesn't know their wrestling. He has achieved great heights in the wrestling business, winning a record 15 World Heavyweight Championships. He has actually won more world titles than 15, but those wins are not recognized by WCW. Flair has excelled in every aspect of the business. He is often referred to as the greatest worker in wrestling history. There's not a wrestler alive he couldn't have a good match with. Also, there's never been a more flamboyant or charismatic personality to ever step in the ring. "The Nature Boy" walks that aisle night after night in his sparkling robes, some with peacock feathers, as well as in expensive suits, always "stylin' and profilin'." His interviews are classic! No one is better on the mic than Ric Flair! Some of his classic sayings are: "To Be The Man, You've Gotta Beat The Man" ; "I'm a Limosine Ridin', Jet Flyin', Kiss Stealin', Wheelin' Dealin' Son of a Gun!" ; "What's Causin' All This?"(You are Ric!); and "Ride Space Mountain"(It may be the oldest ride in the park, but it's still got the longest line! Trust me!). He loves to go "Whooooooooooo!!!" whether during an interview or during a match. Ric has remained "over" longer than any other wrestler in the history of the industry. He is best known as a singles star, but he is also well-known as the leader of the legendary wrestling group known as the "Four Horsemen." This group dominated the NWA/WCW in the late 1980's and early 1990's. Flair is also known by his nicknames of "Slick Ric," "The Nature Boy," "The Great One"(He was "The Great One" before The Rock reached puberty!), and "The Real World Champion." One thing is for sure. He will always and forever be known as "The Man."
