Ric Flair Talks His Current Favorite WWE Stars, Wanting to Wrestle Roman Reigns, The Best Pro Wrestling Faction of All-Time and More

May 12, 2016

WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair recently spoke with MLive.com to promote the Four Horsemen appearing at the Motor City ComicCon this weekend at the Suburban Collection Showplace in Novi, MI. Below are some interview highlights:

On his current favorite WWE stars:

“Roman Reigns for sure. Seth Rollins, Dean Ambrose. I’m also a big fan of Dolph Ziggler. I’d really love to work with Roman Reigns, though.”

Besides the Four Horsemen, what is the greatest wrestling faction of all-time?:

“To me it would be Evolution. And, not just because I was a part of it. There’s no better in ring performers than Randy Orton and Triple H. The two of them, when they are both at the top of their game and healthy, are two of the best in the ring. Batista was awesome. I was older, but I still had a lot of entertainment value. (laughing) As my skills declined, I could entertain the fans.”

Nick was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, and lived there until the age of 18, when he decided to pack his flack jacket and move to New York City.

Nick attended New York University and graduated in 2001 with a degree in Drama.

Nick first entered the internet wrestling community back in 2004 when he became the co-host of The Voice of Wrestling Radio Show. From there, Nick made the transition from radio personality to editor when he began working with WrestleZone in 2008.

Nick is a member of two Off-Broadway theatre companies, Another Urban Riff, and the Drama Desk Award winning Godlight Theatre Company. Nick has appeared in over a dozen Off-Broadway plays since he moved to New York City, and has shot several short and feature length films. In 2010, he completed principle photography on a film titled "How to Score Your Life," which also features TNA Knockout ODB.
