Ric Flair is perhaps the greatest World’s Champion of all
time.
While his legendary pay-per-view main events on a global
stage have been celebrated as iconic pieces of wrestling
lore, it was his years as the workhorse of the National
Wrestling Alliance that was the foundation those moments
were built upon.
Traveling to every territory, defending the most coveted
title in the sport, going weeks, if not months, at a time
without a day off, all the while doing it with the style,
swagger, and flamboyance that only “Slick Ric” could
accomplish. These are the matches, the opponents, and the
arenas that made Ric Flair the measuring stick of the entire
wrestling industry, setting new standards for what a World’s
Champion should be.
