WWE legend Ric Flair has had one of the longest and the most ravishing pro wrestling careers in history. The celebrated veteran often meets other old-timers and current superstars from time to time. Recently, The Nature Boy was spotted with a 53-year-old legend. The name in question is Kid Rock.
Born Robert James Ritchie, Kid Rock, stands out as a big name in the music industry who has a recognizable flavor of sound. Moreover, his music and voice are also behind several notable songs used by the company. Notably, he is the man behind the official theme of WrestleMania 34, The Undertaker’s American Badass persona, and many more. WWE even inducted him into the Hall of Fame in 2018 as part of the Celebrity Wing, owing to his immense contributions to the company.
Recently, Ric Flair took to Instagram and uploaded an image where he could be seen sharing the frame with Kid Rock.
“Rocking With @kidrock In Nashville! WOOOOO!” wrote Flair.

Ric Flair made Steve Austin doubt himself
Stone Cold Steve Austin is easily one of WWE’s most popular and prominent names who had a great sway on the public. The six-time WWE Champion, however, recently revealed that he pales in comparison to the 16-time world champion Ric Flair.
Prior to his WWE debut in 1995, Austin wrestled for WCW and was the tag team partner of The Nature Boy. This allowed him to witness Flair’s wrestling style and technique in great detail from up close.
Speaking to Bobby Bones on his official YouTube channel, Stone Cold noted that this made him realize that he wasn’t up to the mark.
"All of a sudden, when you're watching the man do his thing, you're like, 'F**k this. I got a long way to go.' But it was awesome to be in the ring with him because it was a heads-up call like, 'Okay, man, you need to step up your game a whole lot more than you thought you did.'" [2:42 – 3:00]
Ric Flair currently shares the top spot for most world championship wins with John Cena. However, the Leader of the Cenation may overtake the legend before he retires next year. It would be interesting to see if both WWE greats continue to share the apex position or if Cena would eventually one-up The Nature Boy.
