WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair appeared in the season finale of Kevin Hart’s YouTube series, “Cold as Balls,” where he was interviewed by the comedian as the pair took ice baths. Hart began by asking if Flair always knew he was able to grab the attention of a crowd, and “The Nature Boy” said he knew he had it (what he called “Naitchin ‘”) since he was 14 . The movie star then brought out how the hip-hop community had fully embraced Flair in recent years, citing his performance in 21 Savage, Offset and Metro Boomin’s music video for “Ric Flair Drip”.
Other questions included his favorite wrestling moment, which he said was his retirement match with Shawn Michaels at WrestleMania 24. Hart brought in his pseudo feud with The Rock by trying to insult “The People’s Champ.” Flair, however, had nothing but nice things to say about the man.
“He’s the real deal,” Flair said, adding that if the two were in their prime at the same time, “they should have built to build new arenas.”
“When I see him he’s so damn entertaining,” he added. “He has skills with which to sing and he can play instruments. I didn’t have that, but I had that energy.”

The interview ended with a few questions about Flair’s daughter, Charlotte
“She blew past me,” said Ric. “I didn’t pass the torch she took.”
He then said that seeing her success is a gift and “Much greater than anything I’ve ever achieved is to see that she is not only good, but also great.”
Flair will be one of many former WWE stars to appear on Monday Night Raw next week, titled “Legends Night.” The show is led by a WWE Championship match between Drew McIntyre and Keith Lee.
