#6 Ric Flair succumbs to road rage

Wooo! It's the Nature Boy.
Wooo! It's the Nature Boy.

'Nature Boy' Ric Flair is a legend in pro wrestling. From the plane crash which nearly ended his career before it had begun, to his sixteen world title reigns, to his appearances at WrestleMania and Starrcade, Flair has enjoyed a stellar career.

But, like any mortal man, he sometimes gives way to his personal demons and human foibles. It was once such an incident which landed the Nature Boy in deep legal trouble.

Back in 2005, Flair was riding high as a member of Evolution. Unfortunately, he was stuck in holiday traffic near his home town of Charlotte, North Carolina.

Ric Flair grew angry at the slow driver ahead of him. He forced the driver to pull over to the shoulder, then proceeded to berate and choke him. All the while, Flair threatened to have the man arrested for driving slowly.

Flair wound up being charged for the incident, though he never did jail time. We're hoping that Ric Flair has learned to count to ten instead of giving in to his road rage!
