Wrestler

The Resume

    (February 25, 1949- )
    Resides in Charlotte, NC
    Birth name was Richard Morgan Fliehr
    Nickname 'The Nature Boy'
    Wrestling finishing move is Figure-Four Leglock (unique in that he uses the step-over toehold to set up the move)
    Trained by Verne Gagne
    First wrestled in Verne Gagne's AWA
    Offensive Guard for the University of Minnesota's football team (1968-1970)
    A 'Jet-Flying, Kiss-Stealing, Wheeling-Dealing Son-of-a-Gun'

Why he might be annoying:

    He portrayed a womanizer on TV while he had a wife and kids back home.
    His character is largely based on another 'Nature Boy,' Buddy Rogers.
    He begs off his opponents.
    He is known for frequently blading (cutting his own forehead) during matches.
    He allowed WCW to book his son, David, to look like an idiot.
    He used steroids ( using the 'while they were legal' excuse).
    He is known as the 'Dirtiest Player in the Game.'
    He has a severe lisp and prances around in flamboyant effeminate robes.

Why he might not be annoying:

    He broke his back in a 1975 plane crash - made a full recovery and went on to become one of the most successful athletes in his sport.
    He is widely regarded by insiders and fans alike as giving the best interviews and the best promos.
    He missed WCW's 'Ric Flair Day' celebration to watch his son, Reid, 12-years-old at the time, win a national amateur wrestling tournament final in Florida.
    Darius Rucker of Hootie & The Blowfish paid $27,000 for one of Ric Flair's robes and title belts at a charity golf auction.
