He's the "Rolex wearin', diamond ring wearin', kiss stealin' (WOO!), wheelin'-dealin', jet flyin' son of a gun [who's] having a hard time holding this alligators down."
That's Ric Flair, in his own words. The retired professional wrestler, who used the moniker "The Nature Boy," is one of the most popular of all time (and easily the most entertaining of the '80s). On Tuesday, he was the subject of the highly anticipated 30 for 30 documentary on ESPN.

Makes me very jealous actually.
10,000?
That’s a different one a night for over 27 years...............
Reminds me of what Dennis Prager says he will ask God when he sees him. A. why did he make the mosquito? And B. why did he make the sex drive in the human male so strong?
That’s funny.....both seem to cause a lot of headaches.
He claims to have had four or five a night for a long, long stretch.
That’s Wilt Chamberlain territory.
I didn’t believe him either.
Mathematically impossible for Chamberlain, improbable for Ric...................
That makes it even more dubious a claim.................
I suspect he lost count after all the notches in his bed post made the frame collapse.
I never heard of the guy before and hopefully won't ever again.
I noticed that also. Impressive. Silly but impressive.
He had all these women and NOT ONE PATERNITY SUIT.........................
First of all, once you get over a couple of thousand, I’m sure you lose count. Second of all, you ARE talking about the ORIGINAL “Rolex-wearing, diamond-ring-wearing, kiss-stealing, wheeling-dealing, limousine-riding, jet-flying son of a gun”, so anything is possible.
‘I spilt more liquor in a year than you made on your salary!’
He’s the quintessential pro-wrestler, now retired.
Flamboyant and ego-maniacal. Trying to relive his glory days, I guess.................
“10,000?
That’s a different one a night for over 27 years...............”
Wilt, is that you?
Rick Flair is prone to bragging anyway.
Most teenage boys have done more. And the teenage boys still remember the girls names.
I don't think so. Yeah, I think he'll always want to be in the spotlight. That's just his "nature". But, I think this is not so much about reliving his glory, but holding himself up as a cautionary tale. I think he's got quite a few regrets and paid a pretty steep price for his fame.
Never heard of him, either. The wrestlers of my day were Lou Thesz, Wild Red Berry, and Gorgeous George.
Yeah...anyone with cursory math skills knows it’s BS. People want to believe!
Sometimes one for breakfast and another for lunch and another for supper.
Then one more for bedtime.
