WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair recently spoke with The Roman Show at the annual Miami Marlins Wrestling Night which took place earlier tonight. During the interview, Flair talked about his upcoming ESPN 30-for-30, John Cena breaking his record, being friends with Miami rapper Rick Ross and more.
Flair said fans will learn a lot about his career in the upcoming ESPN 30-for30.
“I’ve seen it twice,” he said. “I think they are going to see a whole different side of wrestling. They’ll see the commitment I made to wrestling and some of the mistakes I made for my family. I used to wrestle 365 days a year, twice on Saturday and twice on Sunday. I don’t think people know that for that for twenty years. I think I’ll be a folk hero with men but all women will despise me.”
Flair said he is a big fan of rap stars such as Miami’s Rick Ross, Snoop Dogg and others. He gave his opinion about Ross’s hit song, “Bout that life” dedicated to The Nature Boy himself.
“I love Rick (Ross). I see him when I am down here. He lives in Atlanta. I am honored. I’ve done stuff with Post Malone. I like Rick Ross, Post Malone, 50 cent, my closest friend snoop is on 30 for 30. I am a big fan of Snoop Dogg.”
He later said, “Snoop gave me credit for creating swag.”
Flair also gave his take on WWE star John Cena potentially breaking his record of most World Title reigns in sports entertainment and if he would attend the match:
“I love John Cena,” he said. “We are good friends. If he breaks the record, I wouldn’t be bothered at all. If they fly me in, it will be tipping me off so that can’t happen. If I am there that would be great. I don’t think it’ll happen. I think the next thing for john is hosting Good Morning America or the Today show.”
Nick was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, and lived there until the age of 18, when he decided to pack his flack jacket and move to New York City.
