Today is the 60th birthday of Ric Flair, arguably the best wrestler ever.  Ric has had classic matches with the likes of Steamboat, Dusty Rhodes and so many other. Ric is the best talker in the game and has influenced so many like Triple H for example.  He is, of course, known for living the fast life and has been one of the best heels of all time. You could say he is the original "Rated R Superstar," the way he partied with the Horseman, etc.  He was great with the Four Horseman and was very versatile. He could wrestle just about any kind of a match: I Quit (Against Terry Funk), Cage match (against various opponents), Two out of Three falls (Steamboat), and even a Ladder Match (Edge). Of course, who could NOT love his "Nature Boy Strut" and the "Flair Flop" and the "Flair Flip" and of course his famous lines: "To be the man, you got to beat the man." and his talking about his styling, profiling lear jet flying, limousine riding.....son of a gun. Can't forget: WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO  Great stuff

He is one of my favorite wrestlers of all time and I hope he has a great 60th birthday.
