I really did not not know this guy prior to the video. But after watching the video I love this guy! His line about his divorces cracked me up! I would love to party with him.

I couldn't agree more. It was even better than I expected. He would be hilarious at a TRF GTG.

makes me wonder if that stuff he is wearing is even his though. There was a thread here a wile back where he posted some of his watches on Twitter, but he stole the pic from another well known site and they were not his at all.

I think that everything Rick is wearing is his. He has had that DD forever and has always included it in his wrestling image. I cannot comment on his twitter but there isn't anything out of the ordinary on his IG that would suggest otherwise.

Oh man!!!! Rick Flair was THE MAN if you grew up in the states during the early 80's. He did party hard like all the other wrestlers at the time. You really should watch some of the old matches on YouTube. Very entertaining.

Sounds like he may have overpaid for some of his jewels

He'd fit right in here.

A little odd, Rick normally rocks the 36 so I am not sure why he would have used someone else's photo that doesn't represent his style?

Looks like an AD tray so maybe that was what he was implying (buying a piece?) so he just used someone's picture.

Personally that isn't something I would do.

I don't believe Ric owns those -- nor does he claim to. It's just an image with a comment. He was gifted a few DD from the WWE upon retirement and induction in to the HOF and had maybe one from the 80's but that's it.

Love the Nature Boy. Grew up watching him all the way back to the 70's when he was on TBS cable NWA Wrestling.

Like his daughter Charlotte too...WOOOOOOOOOO!

Never liked him when I was growing up and this video just confirms my initial thoughts.

Someone took him to the cleaners if he paid $120K for that DD.

He pawned the Rolex he was gifted from WWE. He is in and out of money trouble a lot. Recently he couldn't even pay his bar tab he had to have someone come pay it for him. He is also routinely thrown out of bars. Kinda sad honestly.

I could be wrong but I have to believe had he never gotten married a person such as he could have ended up the same way anyway.

Multiple divorces, drug problems, family problems. His son was found dead in a Charlotte motel room a few years back. Drug overdose. He's had some hard times and bad decisions haven't made it easier.
