Wooo! You better believe The Nature Boy could still get over in today's WWE. Hell, the guy was getting over in the WWE as a performer just a few short years ago. But even coming in fresh-faced, without the enduring legacy, Ric Flair would be able to style and profile his way into our hearts.

Sure, maybe he'd have to reconsider how many times he flopped during each match and whether or not he could sustain an entire career frequently going to the top turnbuckle without ever once actually performing a legitimate move from that position. But those are just the little quirks he was known for. It's the bigger picture stuff that made Flair so phenomenal to watch.

A worker that dedicated to making sure whoever he stepped into the ring with that night looked like a million bucks never goes out of style, and Ric sold the hell out of everything thrown his way. There was no Hulkamania-sized ego there, just a guy who wanted to put on the best match possible. If that involved him going backwards over the top rope and smacking his head into the announce table after a simple chop to the neck? So be it.

Also, let's not lie to ourselves, we all secretly love to watch a bad guy use cheap tactics to steal a win. And there's a reason they called Ric Flair "the dirtiest player in the game."
