Ric Flair says he is the greatest of all time.
The Nature Boy certainly has a claim to be one of the greatest professional wrestlers of all time. With his record of 16 world titles still standing to this day in WWE, Flair is widely regarded by fans and wrestlers of today alike.
During a recent appearance on The Breakfast Club, Flair would talk about himself as the greatest of all time. He would also discuss
I am [laughs]. I’m not on my Mount Rushmore. I think it’s better to have somebody else put you there. My amount Rushmore in terms of importance to the business is Stone Cold, Hulk, obviously, Undertaker, and I think Shawn Michaels. Shawn Michaels is the greatest performer of all time in our business.”
“I can do a little of everything. That doesn’t make me the best. I’m just being me [laughs]. I never say stuff like that. I consider myself to be lucky to be considered one of the best.”
“He (The Rock) would be, except he didn’t stay long enough. I think part of the Mount Rushmore is longevity. It’s hard to be really good, and The Rock was great. But he took off. He’s on my Mount Rushmore for interview skills and everything else, and I remain very close to him.”

Flair is a two time WWE Hall Of Famer, and as mentioned before, continues to hold the record for most world titles in WWE with 16, along with John Cena.
