sorry to bring back a really old post.. As I've stated before I'm wrestler on the indy curciut and have had the lucky chance of working with Ric's youngest son Reid. Reid is a very occomplished high school wrestler as well.. Well Reid and Ric showed up to this show and had matching GMT's on. So we sat and talked about watches for almost an hour and then we was like oh no we gotta work out our match. Very positive experience.

Flair might not be huge but blackjack mulligan is huge

Ya ric flair always had a Rolex day date and from the different dials looks like he trades up frequently

His last wife was a business associate of mine's niece. I grew up watching him at the Norfolk Scope battling Magnum TA and Nikita Koloff. However, I have nothing positive to say about him on a personal level. I'll just leave it at that.

I'd be delighted to meet and get his autograph whether he's a jerk or not, I'm tunneled visioned seeing his persona from watching his charismatic flamboyant glory 80's wrestling days. Oh ya koloffs were my fav too

I have his autograph if you want it. His and Tony Schaivone, an old school ring announcer from back in the day.

Just shows that any moron can buy a Rolex.

I don´t think he is a WIS, Rolex for him is probably just bling

Wow, thanks for bringing back the memories. Back in middle school we would ride the city bus into downtown Miami to attend matches/shows. Ric Flair, Dusty Rhodes, Roddy Piper, Steve Austin, Jerry Lawler…
