5 WWE Superstars who are like their characters in real life

#2 Ric Flair

Ric Flair is known for his jet set lifestyle

There is perhaps no greater pro wrestler in the history of the business than The Nature Boy, Ric Flair. Naitch's career spanned multiple generations and fans young and old loved nothing more than watching Flair cut promos about his jet set lifestyle while wearing that big gold belt.

As mentioned previously, the perceived formula for success in pro wrestling is to turn your own personality up to 11. Well, when it comes to Ric his personality didn't need turning up at all. The promos he cut, the stories he told, the life he lived, it was all a straight up shoot. Ask anyone that has shared a locker room with the man.

The hard hitting life that Ric has enjoyed for so many years has started to catch up with him though. This summer Naitch was hospitalised and for a while it looked as if the wrestling world may lose its greatest creation. However, he fought through that and according to those close to him, he is well on the road to recovery.
