Two time Hall of Famer
Flair is the only wrestler who has been a two time Hall of Famer. Ric has been a headlining name in professional wrestling for almost forty years. Ric's signature catchphrase, "to be the man, you've got to beat the man" is what every wrestling fan remembers.
Ric Flair is known as "The dirtiest player of the game". He won the NWA United States Championship multiple times. He defeated Rhodes for his first NWA World Heavyweight Championship. He has had some memorable matches with Sting, Ricky Steamboat, Terry Funk, Roddy Piper and Jimmy Snuka and others. He lasted 60 minutes in the Royal Rumble 1992 match and won WWE Championship. Flair joined forces with Triple H to form Evolution.
Ric Flair has also worked with TNA where he mentored AJ Styles.
Retired by Shawn Michaels
Ric Flair was involved in a career-threatening match with Shawn Michaels. Michaels faced Ric at Wrestlemania 24 which is almost a decade ago. Shawn did not want to face Flair in such a match but he was forced by the "Nature Boy" himself.
There was a lot of pressure for Shawn Michael to compete against Ric Flair. Shawn unwillingly defeated Flair by giving a sweet chin music and pinning him. Before giving a superkick to Ric, Michaels apologised for his actions in advance. The night after Wrestlemania 24 at WWE Raw, we witnessed a grand emotional farewell to the "Nature Boy".
Wrestlers such as Triple H, John Cena, Randy Orton, Big Show, Hardys, The Great Khali and even The Undertaker came to bid a farewell to the legendary performer. The entire Flair family was also present at that moment when he bid goodbye to wrestling. Undertaker even broke his "Deadman"character to pay tribute to the legend and showing emotions towards him.
