Two-time WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair has been around pro-wrestling through its thick and thin. The longevity of the 16-time world champion is unreal.

However, it was not always easy for ‘The Nature Boy’, who was in a plane crash in his younger days. The former champion has overcome multiple obstacles in his way to become ‘The Man’ of the industry.

On ‘The Wooooo Nation‘, the 72-year-old said, “I’m working out regularly. Rob [trainer] tells me unless he is lying to me, I don’t think he is. I am in kind of the shape that people aren’t supposed to be at my age. But I spend time doing it.”

Not long ago, the former WCW champion was put into a medically induced coma. After being in a coma for almost a month, Flair made his way back and is still ‘stylin’ and profilin’.

‘The Nature Boy’ confessed that a few years ago he was not doing great, health-wise, as he was struggling with drinking problems. However, he bounced back like the star that he is and started working out and taking care of his body.
