Ric Flair Says He S Never Had A Good Wwe Wrestlemania Match

Even with that in mind, hearing Ric Flair comment that he’s never had a decent match at WrestleMania is still a little surprising. But that’s exactly what he said.

The 16-time World Champion was recently a guest on the Wrestling Inc. podcast, when the subject of his WrestleMania appearance was brought up. His response was both shocking and enlightening.

Those who would disagree with this assessment could point to either his WWF Championship match against Randy Savage at WrestleMania VIII or his Retirement Match against Shawn Michaels at WrestleMania 24. Ric Flair, however, has counter-arguments for both of those. When it comes to his match with Savage, the Nature Boy brings up something interesting:

As far as his match with Shawn Michaels - which Flair calls his “favorite” WrestleMania bout - is concerned, he takes a lot more personal responsibility for that.

It’s illuminating to hear a legend of Ric Flair’s standing being so critical of his own work - but that’s why he’s the Nature Boy.
