The WWE Hall of Fame Ric Flair appeared at the end of the season for Kevin Hart’s YouTube series, “Cold as Balls”, where he was interviewed by the comedian while the two were taking ice baths. Hart started by asking if Flair had always known that he had the ability to capture the attention of a crowd, and “The Nature Boy” said he knew he had (what he called “Naitchin ‘”) since he was 14. then it brought to the fore how the hip hop community had fully embraced Flair in recent years, mentioning his appearance in the 21 Savage, Offset and Metro Boomin music video “Ric Flair Drip”.
Other issues included his favorite wrestling moment, which he said was his retirement fight with Shawn Michaels at WrestleMania 24. Hart the brought his pseudo-feud with The Rock when trying to insult “The Peope’s Champ”. Flair, however, had nothing but good things to say about the man.
“He’s the real deal,” said Flair, adding that if the two were at their peak at the same time “they would have to build to build new arenas.”
“When I see him, he is so much fun,” he added. “He has skills where he can sing and play instruments. I didn’t have that, but I had that energy.”

The interview ended with some questions about Flair’s daughter, Charlotte
“She walked right by me,” said Ric. “I didn’t pass the torch she took.”
He then said that seeing her success is a gift and “Much bigger than anything I’ve ever accomplished is seeing her not only be good, but be great”.
Flair will be one of many ex-WWE stars to appear on next week’s Monday Night Raw, nicknamed “Legends Night”. The show will be spearheaded by a WWE championship fight between Drew McIntyre and Keith Lee.
