Charlotte Flair is continuing her father’s legacy but paving her own, and she’s opening the door for women all over the world to be superstars in a male dominated industry.
I like to have Ric Flair in the ring one more time in the MMA or the UFC. I’d like to beat the hell out of him.
A lot of times we would feed off of the crowd. A lot of things that we were doing in the match was called on the fly. For example, Ric Flair and I would go into a match and have a couple of spots and moments set up. And then, of course, we would line up the finish. But the rest was called on the fly.
I’m Ric Flair! The Stylin’, profilin’, limousine riding, jet flying, kiss-stealing, wheelin’ n’ dealin’ son of a gun!
Between my two girls, Alia showed a natural flair for acting.
I was in the business for 20 years and look at Flair. He was probably approaching 35-40. But today, if a guy has good 8-10 year run, he is either considered that damn good or lucky.
Charlotte Flair – she took my title from me. I did beat her twice; however, she beat me and took my title from me, unfortunately. But I’m gonna get it back.
Miami is nothing like me, and that’s why I need to be here – it’s the opposite. I’m practical, where this place is moody, I’m stolid in my interior, where this place has a certain flair, and I’m materialistic in a sense that this place is fundamentally spiritual – there’s a quicksilver quality about this place.
We strongly believe that the Philippines has huge potential in the tourism industry, given our beautiful islands, moderate weather conditions, good cuisine, and the flair of Filipinos for hospitality and entertainment.
I wasn’t very academically inclined, growing up as a child, and the only subject I was good at was English. I had a flair for it, since I came from a literary background.
When it came to eliciting a reaction from an audience, especially at the time, I think Ric Flair is the guy who is constantly up there. Especially when you talk about speaking with passion and being able to convey a ton of emotion with his words and his body language.
A guy like Ric Flair at 49 could go out and do his character. A guy 49 going out and doing Goldberg again – I don’t know what the odds are.
I still recall the first time I laid eyes on Ric. Dusty Rhodes and Dick Murdoch were wrestling, at the time, in Minnesota, and they took a liking to this kid who’d been hanging around the matches. That kid was Ric Flair, and they brought him to my ranch in Amarillo, Texas.
The best incarnation of The Four Horsemen was undoubtedly the unit comprised of Ric Flair, Barry Windham, Arn Anderson and Tully Blanchard, along with talented manager JJ Dillon, which will be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2012.
I try to do the fancy things out there by going with both hands, making crossover moves, and having a certain creativity and flair to my game.
A lot of respect for Ric Flair; he’s just a great guy.
Flair, Dusty Rhodes, Shawn Michaels, The NWO, The Invasion, the wild stories, and the Attitude Era. All the crazy stories – you love them, and you get addicted to them and the lifestyle. But you have to separate them and toe the line and separate yourself from what is real and what is not.
One of the greatest matches I ever saw was Jerry Lawler against Terry Funk in the Memphis Midsouth Coliseum, but there was Flair vs. Steamboat in Nashville back in ’89.
I can only guess that, for guys in their 30s and 40s who watched me play, they understood that the score never mattered and my paycheck never mattered (in relation) to how I played. I played with Little League enthusiasm and professional flair. That’s what fans are really looking for.
Everything I’ve designed is intended not to match perfectly but to sit together in harmony, to add flair and personality to any room.
You have to make the most of any time you are given, and any opportunity I’m given, whether it was as Charlotte Flair’s protege, standing up against Ronda Rousey, being the statistician of Titus Worldwide, I want to show my range.
I owe my start in professional wrestling to the red-headed kid from ‘The Partridge Family.’ I was discovered by Hulk Hogan, Jimmy Hart, and Ric Flair in Chicago when I was introduced to those three gentlemen by Danny Bonaduce.
I let some people down, like Triple H, who had a lot of faith in me and took me under his wing. Ric Flair would never say it, but he loved me like I was his kid, and he was like a dad to me on the road. I’m sure I let him down somewhere along the way. These guys really invested a lot of time, faith, and energy in me.
I like to inject a bit of production value and flair to comedy, or at least to my little corner of comedy.
