Although I chose not to highlight Ric Flair in the episode, I did pay homage to him a bit with my outfit 😎 and I wanted to share some Flair history here. Ric Flair, born Richard Morgan Fliehr on February 25, 1949, is a legendary professional wrestler known for his flamboyant persona, charismatic mic skills, and in-ring prowess. He began his wrestling career in the early 1970s and rose to prominence in the National Wrestling Alliance (NWA) during the 1980s. Flair became a multiple-time NWA World Heavyweight Champion, engaging in classic feuds with rivals such as Dusty Rhodes, Ricky Steamboat, and Harley Race. He coined the phrase "To be the man, you gotta beat the man" and established himself as one of the greatest champions in wrestling history. In the late 1980s, Flair joined the World Wrestling Federation (WWF, now WWE) where he continued his success, becoming a multiple-time WWF Champion and engaging in memorable rivalries with wrestlers like Hulk Hogan and Randy Savage. Ric Flair's legacy extends beyond his own career to his daughter, Ashley Fliehr, known by her ring name Charlotte Flair. Born on April 5, 1986, Charlotte followed in her father's footsteps and has become one of the most dominant female wrestlers in WWE history. She has won multiple championships, including the WWE Raw Women's Championship and the WWE SmackDown Women's Championship, and has headlined several major WWE events. Charlotte Flair has carved her own path in the wrestling world while also honoring her father's legacy, making her mark as one of the most talented and accomplished women in the industry.
