Summary: Big Letdown!
Comment: Finally the DVD documentary that Flair fans have been waiting for! Well, not quite... The documentary part leaves areas uncovered and focuses more on the successes of Flair rather than exploring many controversies surrounding his career. Case in point:
-The reason why he didn't have a real program with Hulk in 1992
-His riot matches in Puerto Rico
-His opinion on Bret Hart
-The nWo Horsemen skit
-His 'feud' with Scott Steiner
-His fallout with Bischoff
-etc, etc
All those things are NOT properly covered in the DVD. Now the matches... Part entertaining, part laughing stock puts it best! A match with Jack Brisco in front of 30 people? Yes, they got that! Hahaha On disc 2, Ric wins one match out of 6! Ric Flair is the greatest just because he was the only one who would do jobs for anybody in a period when egos were overinflated! Ever heard: 'He could have made a broomstick look good'? Impossible! A Ric Flair match is 40% stalling and 55% selling... He couldn't amount any offense if his life depended on it! And I don't see him pretending to be hit by a broomstick! Oh well, I can actually (and he'll probably get color too)! Granted he's been in a lot of 60 min broadways that happened to include 15-20 minutes of wrestling spread throughout the stalling, but this is no Bret/Michaels 60-minute type match!
On the plus side, watch the Harley Race/Flair match on Disc 2 and try not to laugh... I defy you!
So 2 stars out of 5 for historical and camp value! Whoooo!

Summary: Definately gold standard.
Comment: Anything with the Nature Boy is a must buy. This DVD set has some unseen matches and lives up to it's advertisement. Definately worth the price. You get your money's worth and more.

Summary: A must for Ric Flair Fans
Comment: If you're a fan of Ric Flair and his rich wrestling career then you must own this DVD, I know it may lack some matches as other people have said, but hey, the man had an enormous and long career, you can't get all his matches in one set, besides, and probably here's the thing, this DVD set complements the other one: Ric Flair & The Four Horsemen. I own both and I think I have the most complete collection of Ric Flair matches and bio one can have.
My suggestion is to get both because this DVD set concentrates on Ric Flair only with a little on the Four Horsemen, the matches it has are quite good and very good example of his career. I strongly recommend you get this if you're a serious wrestling fan.

Summary: WOOOOOO! This is good!
Comment: A great guy and, entertainer. I haven't seen every Nature Boy moment so it was nice seeing all these stories from an amazing career. Slick Ric was my favorite part because, of how we know Ric can be with the expensive stuff. And after the story about his plane crash the guy was truly meant to be in this business. Now i want Natch to come back lol. This DVD is not a waste of time!

Summary: WOOO! This is the one, baby!
Comment: This is the one. This set is worth the money for one match alone- the infamous showdown with Sting. The rest is all frosting (pink frosting at that) on the proverbial cake. It also covers Ric's struggle to break into wrestling, his influences, and quite a few hilarious interviews. Also shows highlights from the big WWE tribute.
Highly recommended to wrestling fans in general.
