12. Ric Flair

No wrestler has ever embraced over-the-top incredulity and disbelief like Ric Flair, and despite being the Dirtiest Player In The Game for decades, it helped make crowds love him.

The Nature Boy is an ostentatious show-off, yet Flair's undeniable natural charisma and sharp tongue made his character funny as well as arrogant. There are few wrestlers who have ever delivered a promo with as much passion, tenacity and bravado as Flair.

The biggest testament to his mic talent is that when you watch his promo work from the 1980s today, it still seems fresh.

Flair also has a great ability to weave humour into his in-ring work as well as his promos; his infamous face-first Flair flop onto the mat gets a pop even now, and his overselling of moves added comical cowardice to his rule-breaking heel persona.
