10 Surprising Cameos By WWE Wrestlers In Cartoons
2. Ric Flair - The Cleveland Show / Uncle Grandpa
When Cleveland Brown goes on a camping trip with his friends, the group are shocked yet delighted to see that the host for their woodland excursion is none other than Mr. Style and Profile himself, 'Nature Boy' Ric Flair.
Nobody knows how to live it up quite like Naitch' and 'Slick Ric' proceeds to make his way around the camp, dripping in women and generally woo-ing his way through the woods. Oh, and suplexing a canoe along the way. However, that wouldn't be Flair's only cartoon appearance...
As far as random wrestler cameos go, they don't come much more obscure than Flair's momentary appearance in Uncle Grandpa. Uncle Grandpa is a surreal cartoon show based around the madcap adventures of the lederhosen wearing, loony title character.
In an episode titled 'The History of Wrestling', the show recounts the fictional bout between Chicken Man, The Best, and Mysterious Gus, aka "The Nuttiest Match Ever". If that sounds completely nonsensical, that's bang on the money and sums up the entire show perfectly. 'The Nature Boy' makes his appearance as a talking head, detailing the bout as he reminisces back to that fateful day.
The cartoon depictions of Flair in both instances are great caricatures of Naitch, complete with trademark blonde hair and robe. Proof that 'The Dirtiest Player in the Game' can still style and profile even in the world of animation.
