10 Wild Wrestlers Who Oversold Throughout Their WWE Careers

5. Ric Flair

Many often hear the term “over-sell” and immediately think of it in a negative context. While that can be the case with some wrestlers, there have been plenty of WWE superstars that have made an incredible career out of over-doing it.

Go through the signature moves of Ric Flair and you’ll see the epitome of a professional wrestler that over-sells. From the turnbuckle bump to the face flop later coined "The Flair Flop", Ric made a Hall Of Fame career out of embellishing the impact of many moves, but it also helped him become loved by millions.

Legendary matches with Dusty Rhodes, Ricky Steamboat, Sting, Randy Savage, and Hulk Hogan are chock-full of moments that feature 'The Nature Boy' flopping all around the ring. To the casual viewer it may have bordered on comical, but to the ardent wrestling audience, few were better than Flair.

He’s often considered the greatest professional wrestler of all-time for his performances that took place inside the ring. While his personality and character traits only added to his legend, The Nature Boy’s work inside the squared circle set the standard for what an over-seller could achieve.
